Embodiment Construction

[0020] A preferred practice of this invention is illustrated in FIGS. 12-13. Before discussing those figures, however, other variations of the invention, such as illustrated in FIGS. 1-11, will be described.

[0021]FIG. 1 depicts the vest 1 in the front view in accordance with this invention. The vest is held snugly to the exerciser by use of the belt loop 21 and the belt 23. Any suitable fasteners such as a hook and loop type fastener system such as Velcro can be used to connect the belt ends. The hook side of the fastener is attached to the outside side of the belt and the loop side to the same side at the appropriate locations along the belt. The belt threads through the belt loop 21 and is cinched back upon itself and secured in position by means of the hook and loop fastener system. FIG. 1 illustrates two belts. The number of belts depends on the length of the vest, but one or more belts would be used to hold the vest snugly to the exerciser. Other types of fasteners can be used...

Abstract

An aerobic exercise garment is in the form of a vest having a resistance member attached at the lower portion of the vest on each side of a midline extending from the front to the back of the vest. Each resistance member has a hand engagement member. In use the resistance members would crisscross each other and the user would place the user's hand in an open condition into each hand engagement member so that the user could swing the arms in a natural swing.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] Walking and running are common forms of exercise. Unfortunately, in the normal walking and running only a limited portion of the body receives exercise. It would be desirable if some form of exercise garment could be provided to result in an aerobic workout. [0002] There is a known garment which has been marketed as being a vest, but in its primary form is actually in the form of a harness in that it comprises a plurality of straps which extend from a belt and over the shoulders of the user and then back to the belt. The garment is intended to combine aerobic exercise with upper-body strength. In order to accomplish this, resistance elements are anchored in the area of the shoulder. Each resistance element terminates in a hand grip member which is grasped by the user so that the user can stretch the resistance elements by an outward pulling. Variations of this type of device include incorporating resistance tubes into an actual garment with the tub...
