Benefits of technology

[0009]In other words, motions repeated by kicking up the arm 5 are no better than upward and downward motions so that the gluteus maximus muscle cannot stretch or contract in the direction of muscle fibers. This raises a fear of reducing the efficiency of training.
[0010]In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide an imp...

Problems solved by technology

However, drawbacks have been encountered in the conventional training machines.
More specifically, in the training machine disclosed in “2006 MECCA fitness catalog”, the gluteus maximus muscle is e...

Embodiment Construction

[0024]Referring now to FIGS. 1 to 8, an embodiment of a training apparatus according to the present invention is illustrated. As shown in FIG. 1, the training apparatus according to the present invention comprises a base frame 20 (having opposite frames as shown in FIG. 7 or 8). A load application device 21 is provided mounted on one of the opposite frames of the base frame 20, while a seat section 22 is provided supported on the other of the opposite frames of the base frame 20 so as to face the load application device 21. An arm section 23 to which a load derived from the load application device 21 is transmitted is pivotally provided. A pair of steps 24 is provided to be driven in the directions opposite to each other in linkage with rotation of the arm section 23.

[0025](i) Load Application Device 21

[0026]The load application device 21 includes a rectangularly formed weight frame 25 having an upright side frame 25a, as shown in FIG. 1. A plurality of weight blocks 26 are provided...

Abstract

A training apparatus for training a gluteus maximus muscle. The training apparatus includes a load application device for producing a certain load. A seat section is provided for supporting a body of a trainee. A pivotally operative arm section is provided to receive the load produced by the load application device. A step is provided attached to the arm section, for resting a sole of the trainee thereon. The trainee is able to train the gluteus maximus muscle by repeating extending and bending actions of a leg while lying down on the seat section and resting the sole on the step. In this training apparatus, the step is rotated in linkage with a pivotal operation of the arm section.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to improvements in a glutes-exercising type training apparatus for training or developing the gluteus maximus muscle which connects the human pelvis to the femur.[0002]As commonly known, the human gluteus maximus is an extensor muscle in the buttocks and acts when rising from the seated position or when climbing stairs. A conventional example of a training machine for strengthening the gluteus maximus, disclosed in “2006 MECCA fitness catalog”, page 5, will be schematically discussed with reference to FIG. 10.[0003]The machine illustrated in FIG. 10 includes a rectangular base frame 1 having right-side and left-side frames 1a, 1b. A load application device 2 is erected on the right-side frame 1a of the base frame 1. A seat pad 3 and a pair of elbow pads 4 are disposed on the left-side frame 1b to face to the load application device 2. An L-shaped arm 5 to which a load derived from the load application device 2 is transmitted is...
