Benefits of technology
The patent describes a training device for improving football passing technique. The device includes a belt for attachment to the user's waist and a guide post attached to the belt. The guide post has a base, a horizontal member, a vertical member, and a cross member. The horizontal and vertical members are adjustable in length. The cross member is also adjustable in length and projects forward and backward from the vertical member. The device is positioned around the user's waist, with the horizontal member positioned below the user's passing-arm side axilla. The technical effect of the device is to provide a convenient and adjustable training tool for improving football passing technique.
Problems solved by technology
Improper passing mechanics can be detrimental to the performance of a football quarterback or other athlete who passes a football.
For example, improper mechanics may decrease the velocity of the ball and decrease the passer's accuracy.
Sometimes, improper passing mechanics may place excessive stress on a passer's elbow or other body parts, potentially leading to injury.

Embodiment Construction
[0016]FIG. 1 generally depicts one embodiment of a football passer training device for improving football passing technique. The football passer training device generally comprises a belt member to which a guide post is affixed. The guide post generally comprises a base member, a horizontal member extending from the base member, a vertical member extending from the horizontal member, and a cross member affixed to the vertical member. The football passer training device may be worn about the waist of a user to teach and / or reinforce proper football passing technique and develop muscle memory for proper football passing technique. The football passer training device and methods for using the training device will be described in more detail herein with specific reference to the appended drawings.
[0017]Referring to FIG. 1, one embodiment of a football passer training device 100 is schematically depicted. The football passer training device 100 generally includes a belt member 102 to whi...

A training device for improving football passing technique may include a belt member for attachment to the waist of a user and a guide post attached to the belt member. The guide post may include a base member coupled to the belt member, a substantially horizontal member coupled to the base member and projecting outward from the belt member, a substantially vertical member coupled to the substantially horizontal member, the substantially vertical member projecting upward from the substantially horizontal member, and a cross member coupled to the substantially vertical member and projecting forward and backward from an attachment point of the cross member with the substantially vertical member. When the training device is positioned around the waist of the user, the substantially horizontal member may be positioned below the passing-arm side axilla of the user.
Description
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims priority to U.S. Non-Provisional Application Ser. No. 61 / 584,549 filed Jan. 9, 2012 and entitled “Quarterback Training Device” the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present specification generally relates to a football training device and, more specifically, to a training device for improving football passing technique.BACKGROUND[0003]Improper passing mechanics can be detrimental to the performance of a football quarterback or other athlete who passes a football. For example, improper mechanics may decrease the velocity of the ball and decrease the passer's accuracy. Sometimes, improper passing mechanics may place excessive stress on a passer's elbow or other body parts, potentially leading to injury.[0004]Accordingly, a need exists for alternative devices for teaching and / or reinforcing proper football passing mechanics.SUMMARY[0005]According to one embodiment, a...
