Embodiment Construction

[0014]As stated above, the present application is directed to a biomechanical stimulation training method for implementation by a person during a training session. This biomechanical training method combines the benefits of dynamic training with isometric training in the presence of an additional component in the form of a local proprioceptive stimulus. More in particular, the present method combines dynamic and isometric training activities with a local proprioceptive stimulus, for example, a localized and directed vibration having an amplitude as well as a frequency within specific predetermined ranges. The terms “proprioceptive stimuli” and “proprioceptive stimulus” as used throughout the present specification, including the claims appended hereto, shall include, but are not intended to be limited to, a vibration stimuli, a tactile stimuli, a haptic stimuli, as well as any combination of these stimuli. Of course, it is within the scope and intent of the present application to app...

Abstract

A method for implementing biomechanical stimulation training includes application of a preselected dynamic force concurrent with a local proprioceptive stimulus at an engagement member and performing at least one dynamic training activity. The method also includes applying a preselected isometric training force concurrent with another local proprioceptive stimulus at the engagement member, and performing an isometric training activity. An apparatus to facilitate performance of dynamic and isometric training activities includes an engagement member structured to facilitate operative engagement with a portion of a person's body, a force generation assembly structured to generate dynamic and isometric training forces at the engagement member, and a vibration generation assembly structured to generate local proprioceptive stimuli at the engagement member.

Description

BACKGROUND[0001]The present application is directed to a biomechanical stimulation training method having dynamic, isometric, and proprioceptive components, and apparatus structured to facilitate implementation of the methodology.DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART[0002]In today's health conscious society, numerous gyms and other training facilities have spread across the United States and the globe. Many of these facilities provide access to specialized training equipment, for example, dynamic weight training equipment. Such dynamic training devices are structured to isolate different muscles, which are then exposed to repetitive motion of weight movement, causing the muscle to flex back and forth between and expanded and contracted state, and subsequent lengthening and shortening of the muscle. Some facilities also offer equipment for isometric training, a characteristic of which is that there is no externally visible muscle shortening, rather, a fixed force is applied against which a ...
