A rotatable training mannequin used for training fighters or contact sports athletes is constructed of materials that mimic or simulate the upper human body. A sensor embedded in the training mannequin's head senses, detects, and transmits signals containing data for computer analysis. The data is related to motion parameters, which include linear and angular accelerations and velocities, of the training mannequin as a result of impacts and power strikes made by trainee to the training mannequin. Analysis provides feedback to the trainee related to the motion parameters to help the trainee learn proper footwork and where and how to make effective strikes. The parameter values obtained from the training mannequin can be calibrated and/or correlated against current or future real human parameter values due to strikes or other forces that produce damaging effects, such as concussions, and the training mannequin can be used to avoid or learn about concussions.

A training apparatus 2 including a mannequin 4, for being struck by a person training for fighting, the apparatus comprising a support structure 6 for supporting the mannequin, the mannequin including a head 16, a torso, two arms 76 (having upper and lower arms) and two legs 10, and having joints at the shoulders 50, hips 56, knees 54 and elbows 52, wherein the joints at the shoulders are configured to variably adjust and fix the position of the upper arms relative to the torso in at least two orthogonal planes, and the joints at the elbows are configured to variably adjust and fix the position of the lower arms relative to the upper arms in at least one plane, the apparatus including ankle attachment means for removably attaching the ankles to the support structure.

An accuracy ball has a target strike cover, sensors, grips, and a data core that function in combination to provide a device that a trainer can hold and a fighter can practice striking accurately. The accuracy ball has target aim points that a user attempts to strike. The ball can gather data concerning the user's performance during a workout, including strike: accuracy/precision, strength/force, number and velocity, etc. The target strike cover can provide cushioning, as needed. Internal grasp handles allow the accuracy ball to be held safely by providing protection from errant strikes. Sensors including force plates, accelerometers, gyroscopes, location sensing, temperature, pressure, humidity, etc. can all be incorporated. On/off switch, IO port (such as micro-USB), wireless communication devices, display screen, control switches, etc. can be integrated therein as well. Exported data can be tracked, analyzed, graphed, and used to enhance learning and improve skill-sets.

A fight simulation multi-headed, multi-abdomen, multi-armed apparatus is adapted to be used in conjunction with a slip and counter fight simulation apparatus or stand alone apparatus. The fight simulation multi-headed, multi-abdomen, multi-armed apparatus includes a multi-headed member having at least one head attached to at least one abdomen and at least one arm having a glove appending member. Preferably, multiple heads are attached to multiple abdomens with multiple arm pairs to provide different punch configurations for the user to strike at. The multi-headed, multi-abdomen, multi-armed provides various angles adapted for a user to punch, knee, and/or do a flying knee.

A heavy bag workout monitor system for receiving and analyzing quantity, location, and magnitude of physical contact and transmitting the information to a user interface, comprising a plurality of impact detection sensors, an impact detector sensor support, and a workout processor for transmitting workout information during a timed period. The heavy bag of the present invention may comprise a first embodiment where the heavy bag measures approximately 5 feet and is ideal for boxers. The boxing bag of this embodiment may comprise a first and second target zone representing an adversary's head and body respectively. A second embodiment may comprise a heavy bag measuring approximately 7 feet comprising a first, second, and third target zone representing an opponent's head, midsection, and legs respectively. The heavy bag workout monitor system may be used to record, track, and monitor workout activity over a period of time and is compatible with a multitude of mobile devices comprising LCD technology.

The disclosed technology is a training device particularly well suited for training fighters as well as people simply interested in personal fitness. The device comprises a body portion defining an elongated flexible shape configure to be associated with a cover portion such as a modified focus mitt. The focus mitt defines a planar region further defining a target zone to be hit by the trainee. The body portion provides a flex region configured to absorb at least part of the inertia associated with a strike on the target zone to reduce the load on the trainer and trainee.

An interactive boxing trainer having a boxing object and a trainer is provided. An accelerometer is installed in the boxing head of the boxing object so that the acceleration of the boxing head can be sensed, and the force applied onto the boxing head, including its strength and direction, can be calculated accordingly. With this architecture, the cost of installation and maintenance is also reduced.

A sport combat training machine including a base assembly; a post; a shaft assembly having a spring adaptor; a mounting frame that mounts onto the post; a lower striking assembly having a first motor with a respective first adaptor having a first spring attached to a respective first lower striking arm; an intermediate striking assembly; an upper striking assembly including a second motor, with a second adaptor having a second spring attached to a respective first upper striking arm; and an electrical system having at least one computer configured with software to operate the first and second motors and a pedal for controlling the at least one computer. The intermediate striking assembly includes a body having a target area and at least one sensor. The sport combat training machine further includes a top plate assembly having at least one sensor.

A body held sparring device configured for either striking or being hit with the addition of a secondary target. The secondary target is offset from the sparring tool and designed to yield when struck, rather than transmit dangerous torque to the body part holding the sparring tool. Additionally, the sparring tool can further incorporate additional sparring tools, additional secondary targets and or additional control body points. A body held sparring device comprising: a U-shaped structure, at least a first sparring tool, and at least a first target wherein the first sparring tool is configured to be controlled independently of the U-shaped structure and to simulate punches being thrown by an opponent such as jabs and crosses. Wherein the first target is configured to yield when struck to reduce the amount of torque received by the body part through the structure.

A striking bag features a resiliently flexible foam tube, and a striking surface that is connected to an end of the flexible tube to hang therefrom in an exposed position strikeable from below. A threaded rod projects from an upper end of the flexible tube for coupling with a surface mount that is fastened to a ceiling or other suitable overhead surface. The surface mount features a rigid portion into which the threaded rod is threaded. The foam of the tube and the threaded rod solely define a resiliency by which the tube flexes and returns to a normal straight position relative to the ceiling mount. A fabric loop at a bottom of the striking surface allows selective connection of a stretchable tether between the striking surface and a ground based tether point to change a responsive character of the striking bag and enable two distinctive modes of use.
