SHOULDER MOTION EXERCISE DEVICE AND METHOD OF USE
A shoulder motion exercise device, kit, and method of use having a retainer, a plurality of connectors, an extender, and a slider. The device aids in the stretching and exercise of at least a shoulder and a portion of the torso.
Connection and resistance training system
A wearable connection and resistance training system having a waist strap, and left and right upper leg straps and an attachment point device which serves as a connection piece configured to be held underneath a user's torso and between the user's legs to provide rotational resistance to improve and strengthen rotational abilities of a user. An alignment attachment piece and foot straps can also be attached to provide downward force/tension.
TRAINING BELT
A waist belt having at least two rectangular blocks secured thereon, wherein the blocks are removeable and adjustable in height and width, and wherein the blocks are of sufficient length and width to keep the wearer's arms and back in the correct fighting position.
Swimming Stroke Alignment Tool
A training aid to correct arm position during the pulling phase of butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, or crawl also referred to as freestyle, when swimming. The disclosed tool provides physical pressure to correct a common swimming error. Said tool prevents medial rotation of the glenohumeral joint of the shoulder rotator cuff during the catch and pull portion of swimming.
Grip Regulating Sports Glove Assembly
A grip regulating sports glove assembly for enforcing a proper grip to a shaft of a swinging device includes a glove and a block. The glove is selectively positionable over a hand of a user. The block is engaged to a palmar face glove so that the block extends substantially across metacarpophalangeal joints of the hand. The block is substantially wedge shaped and tapers from a first side to a second side. The first side is positioned proximate to fingers of the glove and abuts the shaft of the swinging device, such as a bat, a club, racket, and the like, that is gripped in the hand. The block forces proper gripping of the shaft in the hand.
Compression Device
A wearable massage and/or compression device for applying controllable scrolling or intermittent sequential forces, such as compression forces, to the body and limbs of a user comprises an elongated fabric body sized to encircle a limb of a user, one or more shape-memory wires carried by the fabric body and configured to apply a compression pressure to the limb through the fabric body upon changing shape in response to a stimulus, and a micro-processor based controller for selectively actuating the one or more shape-changing elements to reduce the effective diameter of the device encircling the limb, to thereby apply pressure to the limb.
Athletic training aid
A training aid for throwing a curveball is disclosed herein. The training aid can include a base member that can coupled to a user's wrist. The training aid can further include a first stiffener and a second stiffener coupled to the base member and extending towards the fingertips of the user. The first stiffener can extend over the top of the user's hand and the second stiffener can extend over the palm of the user's hand. The first stiffener and the second stiffener can maintain the wrist/hand position by preventing the wrist from flexing and extending.
System and process for training a sports swing
A system and process for training a user's sports swing to maintain arm position and body rotation so as to promote a proper swing arc. The system includes a waist wrap having one or more attachment area on an outer surface. The system also includes one or more training blocks configured for attachment to the attachment area depending upon the type of swing being practices. The process promotes a proper swing arc by indicating incorrect arm position and/or body rotation through excessive contact between the user's arms and the training blocks during the swing. The goal of the system and process is to train a user's muscle memory for the correct arm position and body rotation in a proper swing arc.
Swing mechanics shoulder harness system and associated systems and methods
Various embodiments for a swing training system are described that include a shoulder harness system having a wrist attachment and at least one coupling member having a first end configured to couple to the wrist attachment and a second end configured to couple to one of a shoulder portion of a chest portion of the shoulder harness system, where the shoulder harness system is configured to maintain a chest-to-arm position of an operator and detach from one of the shoulder portion or the chest portion of the shoulder harness system in response to a predefined amount of force being exerted by the operator during a swing motion using a swinging device; and at least one of: a light system and a stride training system.
WRIST AND ELBOW STABILIZER FOR SPORTS TRAINING
A golf training aid is described that stabilizes a wrist and an elbow of a golfer during a golf swing. The golf training aid includes a flexible sleeve and an elongated rigid insert. The flexible sleeve is configured to receive the wrist and the elbow of the golfer. The elongated rigid insert is secured to the flexible sleeve. The flexible sleeve keeps the rigid insert in contact with the wrist and the elbow of the golfer so as to prevent pivoting of the wrist and pivoting of the elbow.
