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...
