20220305333 · 2022-09-29 ·

The present invention relates to a device for enabling a natural arm exercise during everyday walking. More specifically, the present invention relates to a wearable during-walking arm exercise device comprising: webbing belts extending from the user's front chest part and through the shoulder parts, and crossing each other in an X-shape on the user's back, thereby holding the entire device; one elastic string or multiple elastic strings coupled to the front and rear of the webbing belts, the elastic strings having elasticity such that, according to relaxation and contraction movements following forward/backward movements of arms, backside muscles of upper arms undergo exercise; and a handle fastened to the elastic strings so as to tension the elastic strings. Additionally, the wearable during-walking arm exercise device comprises a waist string having elasticity, the waist string being connected to the lower portion of the handle for muscle movements of front portions of the upper arms (biceps contracts). The elastic strings and the waist string are connected on the upper and lower sides of the handle such that, not only when arms are moved backwards (extension) as a result of walking, but also when the arms are moved forwards (flexion), both front and rear muscles of the upper arms (biceps brachii and triceps brachii) are tensioned and are thus exercised, thereby maximizing the merits of exercise.
