Benefits of technology

[0013]This new invention is an exercise apparatus, the OMG, to be utilized in training, strengthening, and conditioning, the muscular system and used in conjunction with a novel and unique method of exercise that is built upon the foundation of biomechanic, referred to herein as “AIM” (articulatory isolated movements). It is an object of this invention that this new method of speciali

Problems solved by technology

Strength training with AIM on the OMG decreases the chance of injury to the spine.
This is not an ideal means of exercise.
A pivot point on a work out device hinders the operator's range and versatility of movements thus not providing a truly balanced workout.
However, these devices accomplish this goal by a rather restrictive process where the user similarly lies on his back between a reclined pivotal back rest and seat and then secures his feet and legs into an attachment, consequently affixing an upward bent knee position to perform the traditional movements.
Much like the prior art, which relied on pivot points, this prior art also inhibit the user to engage in a specific movement or else the device will not function.
This is not an ideal method, for several reasons, not only does this type of device restrict musc

Embodiment Construction

[0042]The present invention, AIM, is a method of exercise and the OMG, a multipurpose exercise apparatus, that creates a novel, more effective, and safe way for an individual to facilitate specifically designed exercises targeting alpha / gamma co-activation between the intra fusel and extra fusel fibers of the muscle spindle to improve muscle contractile capabilities. The above represents the physiological chain of events that occur within the muscle when trained in this manner. This is an important pathway that allows for more complete muscular development decreasing muscular size due to inflammation and increasing density. This present invention allows for a low load force, in this case gravity, to be applied to a muscular contraction in its shortest position to increase efferent information from the spinal cord to the muscle spindle, consequently creating a more neuro elastic response, resulting in greater muscular threshold and increased joint stability.

Abstract

A multipurpose exercise device and corresponding exercise method that, when used and employed together, provides a novel, effective, and safe exercise regiment that minimizes inflammation and increases muscle density, thus having great utility for training, strengthening, and conditioning the human body.

Description

CLAIM OF PRIORITY[0001]This application claims priority to Provisional Application for U.S. Patent No. 61 / 646,307, filed May 13, 2012, which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.DEFINITIONS[0002]The method of exercise and strength training is also herein referred to as “Articulatory Isolated Movement”, or “AIM”.[0003]The exercise and strength training apparatus, is also herein referred to as “Oh My Glutes Apparatus”, or “OMG”, or “OMG Apparatus”, or “Device”.Inventor Information and Background in Inventors Development[0004]After working in the Fitness industry for over 15 years as a professional teacher and trainer in the field of health and physical exercise, Cynthia Lauren Menaker had realized a need to create an exercise apparatus that would be a substantial and unique improvement to current exercise beliefs and techniques. Cynthia Lauren Menaker thus developed more effective, efficient, and safe techniques through the use of the AIM method. Her personal experienc...
