Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/744,024, filed Mar. 31, 2006, the entirety of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to exercise systems and, more specifically, to an exercise system that facilitates elastic chord training exercises for athletes.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- In many sports, athletes expend high levels of energy for short periods of time and then recover from the expenditure. Athletes who recover quickly are able to play more effectively. Therefore, modern training regimens include exercises designed to promote expenditures of intense bursts of energy coupled with quick and efficient recovery.
- Speed and agility training in athletics trains athletes to expend energy optimally in a sport. Such training typically involves a set of specific drills that are assembled in a specific order, with a specific number of repetitions and with specific times for recovery. It typically focuses on five major disciplines including speed, power, agility, flexibility, and explosion.
- An ideal sports exercise system would empower strength and conditioning coaches who may not necessarily have any formal speed and agility training with the tools and knowledge required in order to offer an effective training curriculum to athletes. To do so requires both hardware used in exercises and a system for monitoring the athletes to ensure that they are training optimally.
- Existing equipment includes permanent exercise devices, such as wall-mounted devices, and portable devices. Wall-mounted devices are typically permanently fixed to a wall inside a gym and cannot be moved easily. Portable devices can be moved and a typically stored in a storage shed or locker. Such devices frequently do not provide the same level of exercise as wall-mounted devices.
- Therefore, there is a need for a speed and agility exercise training system that is portable.
- The invention meets several needs that instructors have for training individuals. It manages a large group of individuals training at the same time by using a “station” technique. The stations are designed to accommodate large groups in a reasonably small area because training space is typically limited. The equipment enables rapid set-up for a training session by preassembling the gear and storing the gear in easily accessible storage cabinets. The invention also allows for portability for moving the equipment from one training location to another. The invention along with the software enables a turn-key set up for any coach to begin training for speed, power, agility, flexibility, and explosion while preventing injuries.
- The disadvantages of the prior art are overcome by the present invention which, in one aspect, is a system for resistance training of an athlete with a plurality of elastic chords. The system includes a frame including a top and an opposite bottom. The frame has sufficient weight to resist movement when the athlete exerts an athletic training force on the frame. At least one attachment structure is affixed to the frame. The attachment structure is configured to attach at least one of the elastic chords in a position so as to be usable in a selected resistance training exercise. At least one storage compartment is attached to the frame. The storage compartment has a size and configuration to facilitate storage of the plurality of elastic chords therein.
- These and other aspects of the invention will become apparent from the following description of the preferred embodiments taken in conjunction with the following drawings. As would be obvious to one skilled in the art, many variations and modifications of the invention may be effected without departing from the spirit and scope of the novel concepts of the disclosure.

Referring to the drawings, like numbers indicate like parts throughout the views. As used in the description herein and throughout the claims, the following terms take the meanings explicitly associated herein, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise: the meaning of “a,” “an,” and “the” includes plural reference, the meaning of “in” includes “in” and “on.”
- As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2A-2D, one embodiment of an
exercise system 100 for resistance training of an athlete includes aframe 110 having atop 111 and anopposite bottom 113. Theframe 110 has sufficient weight to resist movement when the athlete exerts an athletic training force on theframe 110. Theframe 110 includes fourvertical posts 112 and a plurality ofcross members 114 connecting each of thevertical posts 112 to adjacentvertical posts 112. Afloor portion 116 is transverse to thevertical posts 112 and is affixed thereto. Theframe 110 may be constructed from steel, or other suitable materials. The constituent parts of theframe 110 could be affixed to each other through welding or the use of fasteners, such as bolts or rivets, or a combination of welding and fastening. In one embodiment, certain parts are bolted together, allowing major parts to be disassembled for storage or moving. A pair ofwheel structures 140 are each affixed to an opposite side of theframe 110 adjacent to thebottom 113 to facilitate movement of thesystem 100. Eachwheel structure 140 has a retracted position and an extended position. Theframe 110 resists movement when the athlete exerts an athletic training force on theframe 110 when thewheel structures 140 are in the retracted position. Also, thewheel structures 140 facilitate movement of theframe 110 when in the extended position. - A plurality of attachment structures are affixed to different parts of the
frame 110. One example of attachment structures are d-rings 120 that are affixed (e.g. welded) to thecross members 114. Theattachment structures 120 are suitably shaped to allow elastic chords (such as bungee chords) thereto in a position so as to be usable in a selected resistance training exercise. - One or
more storage compartments 130 are also affixed to theframe 110. The storage compartments 130 provide storage for elastic chords used in exercises. Eachstorage compartment 130 includes anelongated cabinet 132 that is connected to a pair of thevertical posts 112 and that defines a cavity therein. Alid portion 134 is attached via an elongated hinge to theenclosure portion 132 and covers the cavity. Alock 136 may also be provided to lock thelid portion 134 in a closed position.Holes 138 may be drilled into the storage compartments 130 to provide ventilation. - One type of exercise that may be performed with the system, as shown in
FIG. 3 , is a reciprocal lateral movement exercise. In such an exercise, theathlete 10 attaches anelastic chord 300 to one of the d-rings 120 and to a harness or abelt 310 and then runs back-and-forth between twocones 12 that are placed in a position such that theelastic chord 300 is always under tension. - Another type of exercise that may be performed with the system, as shown in
FIG. 4 , is a vertical movement (or jumping) exercise. To facilitate this type of exercise, two d-rings 122 are attached to thefloor portion 116 through which theathlete 10 passes twoelastic chords 300, one end of each being attached to abelt 310 that is placed around the athlete's waist. Somewhere along the top surface of theframe 110 are a pair ofcleats 150 that allow the athlete to secure theelastic chords 300 with a desired tension. Once theelastic chords 300 are secure, the athlete executes the exercise by repeating a vertical movement, such as jumping. - Two
retractable wheel structures 140, as shown inFIGS. 5A and 5B , allow for easily moving the system from one location to another. In one embodiment, thewheel structure 140 includes awheel 500 that is supported by areciprocating axle support 510. Asupport structure 512 is affixed to theframe 110 and thereciprocating axle support 510 is able to move vertically relative to thesupport structure 512. Afirst pivot 516 is secured to supportstructure 512 and asecond pivot 518 is secured to thereciprocating axle support 510. Alever 514 is secured to thefirst pivot 516 and thesecond pivot 518 so that as thelever 514 is rotated in the direction of arrow A (as shown inFIG. 5A ), thewheel 500 is raised so as to disengage from theground 20 and so that when the lever is rotated in the direction of arrow B (as shown inFIG. 5B ) the wheel is lowered for engagement with theground 20. - In another embodiment, as shown in
FIGS. 6A-6D , the frame includes ashipping container 600 that defines aninterior space 602. A plurality ofopenings 610 are cut into the sides of theshipping container 600. Eachopening 610 includes a door 650 (such as a steel roll-up door) that secures theopening 610. Alock 652 is capable of locking thedoor 650 shut for safety and security reasons. - A plurality of
vertical posts 612 are affixed to the ship) are affixed to some of thevertical posts 612 and to the exterior sides of theshipping container 600. A plurality ofpegs 630 are also affixed to some of thevertical posts 612. Thepegs 630 can be used for hanging things on (such asweights 702, as shown inFIG. 7 ) when storing exercise equipment. - As shown in
FIG. 6C , anend cabinet 654 can be integrated into anend 604 of theshipping container 600. Anend opening 655 is cut into theend 604 and avertical wall 656 is placed inside theshipping container 600 to define the back of theend cabinet 654. A plurality ofshelves 658 may be placed within theend cabinet 654 and used for storage of exercise equipment. Adoor 650 covers theend opening 655 securely. A cross-bar 660 may also be placed in thecabinet 654 and used for attaching elastic chords thereto during exercise sessions. - To improve storage organization of the
container 600, a plurality ofvertical lockers 672, as shown inFIG. 6D , may be inside the shipping container against a selectedwall 670. Similarly, dividers or shelves may be placed against thewall 670. - In one commercial embodiment, the
container 600 is an 8′×20′ ISO standard shipping container made of heavy duty steel and includes 12 training stations. Used standard shipping containers can be purchased from many outlets, many of which will make custom modifications (such as the cutting of side doors) according to the purchaser's specifications. - The
container 600 can be painted with school colors or provided with advertising (such as affinity advertising). The advertising could be painted on or applied using any one of the commonly used methods of applying advertising to exterior structures (e.g., vinyl banner and vehicle wrap). - The system may be provided with synthetic turf on which the athletes train. The synthetic turf reduces wear on the playing field on which the system is being used. This allows for a maximum number of hours without wearing out natural grass on the playing field.
- A software tool may be used with the system. The software tool, which would typically run on a laptop computer, provides a platform for coaches and trainers to access functional information concerning speed and agility of each athlete. In one embodiment, coaches will access the software via the global computer network using a user name and password. The software provides one or more of the following functions: profile athletes (individual tests: 40 yd, shuttle, etc.); create workout for entire team/class; organize daily, weekly, monthly calendars by coach/school; display videos to show teaching and training methods; display and print drill layouts; “ask the pro” feature for additional clarification; remote updating for athlete involvement; monitor and report athlete's/student's performance; and display rankings (including inter- and intra-school).
- Several different screen shots of the user interface presented by the software are shown in
FIGS. 8A-8D . Acalendar 810, shown inFIG. 8A , assists the trainer in scheduling different exercises. A workout planner 812, shown inFIG. 8B , organizes exercises. A video library 814, shown inFIG. 8C , provides video images of different exercises being performed. Atracking chart 816, shown inFIG. 8D , assists the trainer in tracking the performance of several different athletes. - The above described embodiments, while including the preferred embodiment and the best mode of the invention known to the inventor at the time of filing, are given as illustrative examples only. It will be readily appreciated that many deviations may be made from the specific embodiments disclosed in this specification without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is to be determined by the claims below rather than being limited to the specifically described embodiments above.
