Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to training equipment. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, various types of training equipment have been available. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a training equipment that allows both arms to be exercised. The training equipment disclosed in Patent Document 1 allows the user to obtain flexible and elastic shoulder and back muscles without hardening the muscles, with less strain on the body such as muscle pain and fatigue.

[0003] Incidentally, the training device described in the above Patent Document 1 can mainly train the muscles of the shoulders and back, but it is desirable to train in a well-balanced manner. Therefore, it is desirable to provide a training device that can train flexible and elastic muscles in other areas as well, without hardening the muscles and with less strain on the body, such as muscle pain and fatigue.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] JP 2006-187317 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above demand, and aims to provide a training device that can train parts of the body other than the shoulders and back, and that puts less strain on the body, such as causing muscle pain and fatigue. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to solve the above problems, a training device according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a seating portion for a user to sit on, a slide rail extending in a direction away from the seating portion, a sliding portion that slides against the slide rail, a gripping portion provided on the sliding portion, a load application portion for applying a load, and a tensioning member having one end connected to the sliding portion and the other end connected to the load application portion, which applies the load of the load application portion to the seating portion, and the user sits on the seating portion with their side facing in the sliding direction of the sliding portion and grips the gripping portion with one hand.

[0007] In the above training equipment, the sliding part includes a sliding part main body that slides against the slide rail, a first rotation axis that is rotatably provided against the sliding part main body, a connecting plate that is connected perpendicularly to the first rotation axis, two side plates that are connected perpendicularly to both ends of the connecting plate, a second rotation axis that connects the two side plates, and a support part for supporting the user's forearm that is rotatably connected about the second rotation axis, and the support part may include a grip part.

[0008] In the above training device, the tension member may connect the sliding part and the load applying part via a pulley.

[0009] In the above-described training device, the slide rail extends in a direction away from the side of the torso of a user seated on the seating portion, and the tension member may apply a load from the load application portion to the side in which the slide rail extends, pulling the sliding portion toward the seating portion.

[0010] In the above training device, the slide rail may be fixed to a slide support, the slide support may be rotatably connected to the guide support by a slide support shaft portion, and the slide support may be connected to the fixed beam portion by a movable support.

[0011] In the above training device, the sliding part may include a transmission part that transmits a rotational motion of the sliding part about a first rotation axis, and a connection part that connects the transmission part and the tension member. Effect of the Invention

[0012] The training device according to one aspect of the present invention includes a seating section on which a user sits, a slide rail extending in a direction away from the seating section, a sliding section sliding on the slide rail, a grip section provided on the sliding section, a load applying section for applying a load, and a tension member having one end connected to the sliding section and the other end connected to the load applying section, which applies the load of the load applying section to the sliding section toward the seating section, and the user sits on the seating section with the side facing the sliding direction of the sliding section and grips the grip section with one hand, so that the user can exercise the right arm or the left arm by gripping the grip section and pushing the sliding section with a load applied. Thus, one device can be used for both the right arm and the left arm to exercise.

[0013] Furthermore, since only one sliding portion is provided for each hand and arm, the training device can be made more compact in size than if two sliding portions were provided for each hand and arm. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0015] Hereinafter, a training device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0016] <Embodiment Mode> <Configuration> FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the appearance of the training device 1. As shown in FIG. 1, the training device 1 includes a seating section 10 on which a user sits, slide rails 22, 22 (two rails are shown in the figure) extending in a direction away from the seating section 10, a sliding section 70 that slides on the slide rails 22, 22, a gripping section 60 provided on the sliding section 70, and a load applying section 30 that applies a load to the user's exercise motion. The training device 1 further includes the sliding section 70 provided on the sliding section 70, and a tension member 80 that has one end connected to the sliding section 70 and the other end connected to the load applying section 30, and applies the load of the load applying section 30 to the seating section 10 side with respect to the sliding section 70. A user (see FIG. 6) sits on the seating section 10 with his / her side (so-called flank) facing the sliding direction (see FIG. 2) of the sliding section 70. Then, the user holds the grip portion 60 in one hand.

[0017] Hereinafter, the training device 1 will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. First, the structure of the training device 1 will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 4. As described above, Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the training device 1, Fig. 2 is a perspective view including the movable state of the training device 1, Fig. 3 is a top view of the training device 1, and Fig. 4 is a front view of the training device 1. In describing this embodiment, the side where the slide rails 22, 22 are shown in the top view of Fig. 3 and the front view of Fig. 4 is defined as the right side, and the opposite side as the left side.

[0018] As shown in Fig. 1, in the training device 1, the seating section 10 is vertically connected to one end of a first beam section 27 (fixed beam section) by a seat support 12, and a weight framework 20 is connected to the other end of the first beam section 27. A load applying section 30 consisting of weights, the number of which can be adjusted, is housed within the rectangular weight framework 20 so that it can move up and down. The weight framework 20 is also provided with a body support 15 against which the user (see Figs. 5 and 6) presses his / her arms. The body support 15 is connected to the weight framework 20 by a body support connection section 16. The body support 15 may be used by the user to hold the user's arms in addition to pressing them against it.

[0019] The slide rails 22, 22 in the embodiment are two parallel rod-shaped bodies to ensure the stability of the sliding of the sliding part 70. Of course, the number and shape of the slide rails themselves are appropriate as long as the sliding of the sliding part 70 is ensured. The slide rails 22, 22 are connected to a slide support 42. One end of the slide support 42 near the seating part 10 is rotatably connected to the guide support 40 by a slide support shaft part 41. As can be seen from Figs. 3, 4 and 6, the slide rails 22, 22 in the training apparatus 1 are installed so as to extend in a direction away from the side of the torso of the user seated on the seating part 10, that is, in a direction in which the arm is stretched out horizontally from the side of the user's abdomen.

[0020] The movement of the slide support 42 equipped with the slide rails 22, 22 is a rotation indicated by an arrow 221 (see FIG. 2). A guide support 40 is erected on one end side of the second beam portion 23 (fixed beam portion) facing the first beam portion 27. The slide support 42 is equipped with a slide shaft portion 26 that supports the slide support 42, and is connected to a fixed support shaft portion 25 provided on the other end side of the second beam portion 23 via a movable support 24.

[0021] The distance between the first beam 27 and the second beam 23 can be adjusted according to the user's physical constitution (gender, height, etc.). In the slide support 42 having the slide rails 22, 22, the position of the slide shaft 26 can be adjusted toward or away from the slide support shaft 41, thereby adjusting the position of the sliding part 70 on the slide rails 22, 22, and further adjusting the pulling distance of the tension member 80. The movement of the slide shaft 26 and the movable support 24 around the fixed support shaft 25 is a rotation indicated by an arrow 241 (see FIG. 2). The movement of the sliding part 70 on the slide rails 22, 22 is a linear forward and backward movement indicated by an arrow 271 (see FIG. 2).

[0022] In the illustrated embodiment, the first beam 27 and the second beam 23 (both fixed beams) form the framework of the entire training apparatus 1 and function to stably install the training apparatus 1 on the floor surface. From the viewpoint of ensuring the strength of the entire training apparatus 1, the first beam 27, the seat support 12, the weight framework 20, the second beam 23, the slide rails 22, 22, the slide support 42, the guide support 40, the slide support 42, etc. are formed by bolting, welding, etc. from stainless steel material or the like. The seat 10 is provided with a cushioned seat 11 for a user to sit on. The seat 10 is a long rectangular shape (rectangle) extending to the front and back of the training apparatus 1 (see FIG. 3). The shape of the seat 10 is long and extends to the front and back to accommodate both a user sitting facing the front of the training apparatus 1 (see FIGS. 5 and 6) and a user sitting facing the back of the training apparatus 1 (not shown). In this way, the training tool 1 is configured so that the user can change the orientation of the single tool when using it, and therefore the overall size of the tool can be made small.

[0023] The tension member 80 is installed between the sliding part 70 and the load applying part 30, and is a member for transmitting a downward load due to the weight of the load applying part 30 to the sliding part 70. The tension member 80 is a known wire, chain, rope, or the like. On the guide path of the tension member 80 between the sliding part 70 and the load applying part 30, pulleys 85c, 85a, 85d, 85e, and 85b are installed in this order from the load applying part 30 side (see FIG. 4).

[0024] Specifically, as can be seen from Fig. 4, the end of the tension member 80 is connected to the weight framework 20, and pulley 85c in the middle is a movable pulley connected to the load applying part 30. Pulley 85a is connected to the upper part of the weight framework 20 and converts the tension direction to downward. Pulley 85d is connected to the first beam part 27 and converts the tension direction to horizontal, and pulley 85e is connected to the first beam part 27 and converts the tension direction to upward. And pulley 85b is connected to the upper end of the guide pillar 40 and converts the tension direction to the extension direction of the slide rails 22,22.

[0025] In the training device 1 of the embodiment, a cover part 21 is provided to protect the pulley 85b at the upper end of the guide pole 40 and the tension member 80. The pulley 85b corresponds to the position of the arms and sides of the user seated on the seat 10. Therefore, the cover part 21 is provided to prevent the pulley 85b and the tension member 80 from entangling the user's clothes and skin. By arranging pulleys at various locations as in the training device 1 of the embodiment, the tension member 80 is arranged so as not to get in the way of the user seated on the seat 10, and the load of the load applying part 30 can be applied to the sliding part 70. The pulley 85e is below the seat 10, and the pulley 85d is also below the body support 15, and is in a position hidden from the seated user. If the tension member 80 is a wire, the pulley is a pulley, and if it is a chain, the pulley is a sprocket.

[0026] Fig. 5 is an enlarged perspective view of the sliding part 70. The sliding part 70 slides on the slide rails 22, 22 (see arrow 271 in Fig. 2). The sliding part 70 includes a placement part 71 and a sliding part main body 77, and below the sliding part main body 77 is provided a rail block 78 for smooth sliding with the slide rails 22, 22. As shown in Fig. 5, the two slide rails 22, 22 are inserted into the rail block 78.

[0027] A first rotating shaft 76 is provided rotatably on the sliding part main body 77. The first rotating shaft 76 rotates to the front and rear of the paper surface of FIG. 5. A connecting plate 75 is provided at the end of the first rotating shaft 76, which is connected perpendicularly to the first rotating shaft 76. Two side plates 74a, 74b are connected perpendicularly to both ends of the connecting plate 75. A second rotating shaft 73 is connected to be held by the two side plates 74a, 74b. The placement part 71 is a member on which the user's forearm is placed (see FIGS. 6 and 7), and a rod-shaped grip part 60 that the user holds is provided perpendicularly from the placement part 71 on the upper part. In addition, three upper arm holding parts 72 for holding the central part of the user's upper arm and elbow are provided perpendicularly from the placement part 71. The placement part 71 swings left and right on the paper surface of FIG. 5 with the second rotating shaft 73 as the center of rotation.

[0028] To summarize the positional relationships, the first rotating shaft 76, side plates 74a, 74b, and grip portion 60 are parallel, and the connecting plate 75 and second rotating shaft 73 are parallel. Therefore, when the user places the upper arm on the placement portion 71, the first rotating shaft 76 and the second rotating shaft 73 rotate to allow the user to move the upper arm either to the side or forward or backward from the body. The user can use the training apparatus 1 in a desired form (angle or force) and apply a load to himself, including his arm.

[0029] The tension member 80 is connected to the sliding part body 77 of the sliding part 70 by a connection part 79. The tension force due to the weight of the load application part 30 is transmitted to the sliding part 70. Therefore, the tension member 80 is applied with a load from the load application part 30 to the side pulling the sliding part 70 toward the seating part 10 in the direction in which the slide rails 22, 22 extend.

[0030] The user presses his / her upper arm against the placement portion 71 of the sliding portion 70 and grasps the grip portion 60 with one hand. An appropriate mechanism for applying a rotation load to the first rotating shaft 76 is provided inside the sliding portion main body 77. Specifically, this is a mechanism for applying a load to the rotation of the first rotating shaft 76, such as a coil spring, a leaf spring, or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0031] Furthermore, a transmission unit 90 (see FIG. 8) that transmits the rotational motion around the first rotation shaft 76 to the tension member 80 via the connection unit 79 may be provided inside the sliding unit body 77. The rotational motion around the first rotation shaft 76 is converted into a pulling motion (in the left-right direction of the paper surface of FIG. 5) of the tension member 80 connected to the connection unit 79 through the transmission unit 90. The transmission unit 90 is composed of a combination of known gears, chains, cranks, etc. In the case of a configuration in which the transmission unit 90 is provided inside the sliding unit body 77, the load of the load application unit 30 connected to the tension member 80 can be directly converted into a load (load) when the first rotation shaft 76 rotates. Therefore, the load when the user swings the first rotation shaft 76 through the grip unit 60 and the placement unit 71 can be easily adjusted by changing the number and type of weights of the load application unit 30.

[0032] Here, the configuration and function of the sliding part main body 77, which is the main part of the sliding part 70, will be described with reference to the schematic perspective view of Fig. 8. The first rotating shaft 76 is inserted into the upper part of the sliding part main body 77, and first transmits the motion transmitted from the placement part 71 side to the transmission part 90 inside the sliding part main body 77.

[0033] The transmission unit 90 provided in the sliding unit main body 77 is provided so as to be connected to the connection unit 79 of the tension member 80 and to apply a load to the rotation about the first rotating shaft 76 by the load applying unit 30. As can be seen from FIG. 8, the transmission unit 90 includes a rotation transmission unit 91 (reference numerals 91a, 91b, 91c, 91d, and 91e in the figure) that transmits the rotational motion about the first rotating shaft 76, and a crank mechanism unit 92 (reference numerals 92a and 92b in the figure) that converts the rotational motion transmitted by the rotation transmission unit 91 into vertical motion of the sliding shaft 57 connected to the connection unit 79 side of the tension member 80. The axial rotation of the first rotating shaft 76 through the mounting unit 71 causes the sliding shaft 57 to move up and down via the rotation transmission unit 91 and the crank mechanism unit 92, and the load applying unit 30 (weight) connected by the clamp moves up and down.

[0034] More specifically, the rotation transmitting part 91 includes a sprocket 91a provided on the first rotating shaft 76 in the sliding part main body 77, a sprocket 91b provided on a shaft whose left and right ends are supported by the frame body 53, a chain 91c hung on the sprockets 91a and 91b, a bevel gear 91d provided on the shaft on which the sprocket 91b is provided, and a bevel gear (crown gear) 91e meshing with the bevel gear 91d. The bevel gear 91e is provided on the free end of the crankshaft 92a, which is supported vertically on the frame body 53, on the grip part 60 side. As a result, the crankshaft 92a rotates due to the vertical rotation of the first rotating shaft 76.

[0035] The crank mechanism 92 includes a crank shaft 92a and a connecting piece 92b, one end of which is rotatably connected to a projection protruding from the center of the crank shaft 92a and the connecting part 79 of which is rotatably connected to the end of the sliding shaft 57. As a result, the sliding shaft 57 moves left and right by the rotation of the crank shaft 92a. In this way, the placing part 71 (the gripping part 60) is rotationally biased by a force proportional to the load of the load applying part 30. Then, by axially rotating the placing part 71 (the gripping part 60) against the rotation biasing force with respect to the sliding part main body 77 of the sliding part 70, the sliding shaft 57 slides in a direction of entering the sliding part main body 77 (i.e., the sliding shaft 57 and the tension member 80 connected to the sliding shaft 57 are pulled into the lifting part 50), and the load applying part 30 connected by the clamp is lifted.

[0036] <First usage form> Fig. 6 is a diagram showing an example of exercise in a first usage mode of the training tool 1. The first usage mode in Fig. 6 is an example of exercise for the user's arms, and can train, for example, the trapezius muscle, deltoid muscle, and other back and shoulder muscles, as well as the biceps, triceps, and brachialis muscles of the upper arm.

[0037] First, the number and type of weights in the load applying unit 30 are changed to an appropriate weight according to the load suited to the user's muscle strength, purpose, etc. Then, in the state shown in Fig. 6(a), the user sits on the seat 11 of the seating unit 10 facing forward, adjusts and fixes the seat 11 to an appropriate height so that the soles of the feet are in contact with the floor, and performs training.

[0038] The user places the tip of the left arm from the elbow on the placement part 71 and grasps the grip part 60 with the left hand. The left arm is in a state of being tilted toward the back of the user, toward the rear of the page. In FIG. 6(a), the user grasps the grip part 60 with the left hand, bends the elbow in an L-shape, and tilts the lower arm backward (toward the back) from the elbow (the left wrist is behind the head). Then, as shown in FIG. 6(b), the user tilts the left lower arm toward the front of the body against a force that is proportional to the load of the load application part 30 and rotates the grip part 60 of the placement part 71 toward the back of the user, and rotates it around the axis of the placement part 71 to the side of the forehead (around the temple) toward the front of the user. This action causes both the flexor and extensor muscles to "relax," and the shoulders and arms are in a relaxed state. In addition, the load of the load applying portion 30 biases the mounting portion 71 to rotate, and the muscles around the shoulder girdle etc. are appropriately "stretched."

[0039] The user tilts the left arm forward against the load of the load application unit 30, causing the muscles around the shoulder girdle to "shorten" and rotate the support unit 71 so that the muscles around the shoulder girdle, etc., which have been moderately "stretched," will cause a "reflex" (see FIG. 6(b)). At this time, the load application unit 30 is pulled up by rotating the support unit 71 around its axis in conjunction with the back, shoulders, and arms while adding "relaxation" and "stretching" movements to the left arm, and the load application unit 30 is pulled up, reducing the load in the initial movement. In this way, by placing the left arm on the support unit 71 and tilting it toward the user's back to "shorten" the muscles and twist the left arm backwards, appropriate "shortening" timing appears while adding "relaxation" and "stretching" movements, and each muscle group can obtain the timing of "relaxation-stretch-shortening" to perform movements with good coordination.

[0040] In the above-mentioned flow of Figures 6(a) and (b), the left arm is moved from the back of the user's body to the side of the forehead as a physical training. Of course, the right arm is also trained in the same way. In the case of the right arm, the user can exercise the right arm by reversing the sitting direction from Figures 6(a) and (b) (not shown). Therefore, the user can exercise both arms symmetrically while exercising from the arms to the back, thereby expanding his / her own range of motion.

[0041] Furthermore, the training device 1 can also accommodate a movement in which the user's left arm is initially positioned to the side of the forehead as shown in Fig. 6(b), and then the left arm is tilted from the side of the forehead toward the user's back as shown in Fig. 6(a), or toward the front of the user's body (not shown). By using the training device 1, the "relaxation-stretch-shortening... cycle" is constantly carried out in each muscle group. Therefore, the user can start from any position depending on the user's physical condition, the muscle to be strengthened, the contents of the rehabilitation, etc.

[0042] As the training device 1 is configured to train one arm at a time rather than both arms, there is no need to prepare sliding portion 70 and slide rails 22, 22, etc. to train both arms at once, and the size can be made more compact than if the training device 1 were configured to accommodate both arms (the width can be narrower than if two slide rails were provided for both arms), so the area of ​​the space that needs to be prepared as installation space for the training device 1 can be reduced.

[0043] <Second usage form> In the first usage mode, an example of exercising the arms is shown. In the second usage mode, an example of exercising the abdomen and chest using the training device 1 will be described. Fig. 7 is a front view showing an example of exercising the abdomen and chest in the second usage mode.

[0044] First, the number and type of weights in the load applying unit 30 are changed to an appropriate weight according to the load suited to the user's muscle strength, purpose, etc. Then, in Fig. 7(a), the user sits on the seat 11 of the seating unit 10 facing forward, adjusts and fixes the seat 11 to an appropriate height so that the soles of the feet are in contact with the floor, and begins training.

[0045] In FIG. 7(a), the user thrusts his / her left arm out to the left of the body, lifts the lower arm from the elbow upward, and places the lower arm on the support part 71 of the sliding part 70. The user grasps the grip part 60 with the left hand, bends the elbow into an L-shape, and bends the knee. The support part 71 is located close to the user due to a force proportional to the load of the load application part 30. Then, as shown in FIG. 7(b), the user bends the upper body of the user so as to push the upper body from the waist toward the left side of the body against the force of the load of the load application part 30 pulling the support part 71. This action "relaxes" both the flexor and extensor muscles, and the abdomen and waist are in a relaxed state. In addition, the load of the load application part 30 urges the support part 71 to a pulling action, and the muscles of the abdomen, waist, etc. are moderately "stretched".

[0046] The user then returns the upper body, bent toward the left side in response to the load applied by the load application unit 30, to its original position so that the moderately "stretched" abdominal and lumbar muscles induce a "reflex" (movement from FIG. 7(b) to (a)). At this time, the load applied by the load application unit 30 continues even when the abdominal and lumbar muscles are linked together to return the support unit 71 to its original position while also adding the "relaxation" and "stretching" movements that occur in the abdominal and lumbar muscles, and the load in the initial movement decreases. In this way, the appropriate timing for "shortening" appears as the user's abdominal and lumbar muscles are "shortened" and "relaxation" and "stretching" movements are added, and each muscle group obtains the timing of "relaxation-stretch-shortening", allowing the movement to be performed in good coordination.

[0047] Furthermore, the training device 1 also responds to the movement of the user's upper body from the initial position pushed out to the left side of the body as shown in Fig. 7(b) to the straight position of the upper body facing forward as shown in Fig. 7(a). By using the training device 1, the "relaxation-stretch-shortening... cycle" of the abdominal, lower back, and trunk muscle groups is constantly executed. Therefore, the user can start from any position depending on the physical condition of the user, the muscle to be strengthened, the contents of the rehabilitation, etc.

[0048] As the training apparatus 1 is configured to train one side of the upper body at a time, there is no need to prepare sliding portion 70 and slide rails 22, 22, etc. to train both sides at once, and the size can be made more compact than if the training apparatus 1 were configured to accommodate the left and right upper body halves (the width can be narrower than if two slide rails were provided for both arms), so the area of ​​the space that needs to be prepared as installation space for the training apparatus 1 can be reduced.

[0049] Here, the first use form (FIGS. 6(a) and (b)) and the second use form (FIGS. 7(a) and (b)) may be simultaneously performed to allow the user to train complex movements. For example, as shown in FIG. 6(a), the user grasps the gripping part 60 with the left hand, bends the elbow in an L-shape, and bends the lower arm backward (towards the back) from the elbow. Next, as shown in FIG. 7(b), the user pushes the upper body to the left. Then, as shown in FIG. 6(b), the user returns the left wrist to a position next to the head (left ear), and returns the upper body to a straight position as shown in FIG. 7(a). Of course, the order and combination can be freely rearranged. During the second use form, the user rotates the placement part 71 relative to the sliding part 70 as in the first use state, and the internal crank mechanism retracts the connection part 79 into the sliding part 70, thereby reducing the load applied to the arm by the load applying part 30. Therefore, when the sliding portion 70 is rotated, a "relaxed" state can be created in the user's arm.

[0050] The device in the illustrated embodiment is intended for training the upper body, mainly the arms and torso. As an advanced version, the movements shown in Figures 6 and 7 can be applied to the lower limbs to train the calves, ankles, etc.

[0051] The initial load training (registered trademark) using the training device 1 shown in the figures and described in detail is a training that uses the load of the training device 1 to cause a reflex in the muscles, so that the muscles that should be working work well and improve the functions of the muscles and nerves, and uses the load as a catalyst to promote well-timed contraction and shortening of relaxed muscles. This type of training promotes a series of relaxation-stretch-shortening movements and prevents co-contraction, thereby improving the function and coordination of the nerves and muscles, reducing the burden on the body such as muscle pain and fatigue, and obtaining flexible and elastic muscles without muscle hardening. In addition, by promoting aerobic metabolism with little forced increase in heart rate and blood pressure, it is effective in preventing lifestyle-related diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure, and promoting the healing of ligament damage and fractures, and can create a beneficial state for the body, such as releasing stress on the nerves, muscles, and joints and removing waste products.

[0052] The training apparatus according to the present invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiment. For example, the load applying unit 30 may apply a load using electromagnetic force, hydraulic pressure, air pressure, or the like, in addition to applying a load by the weight of a weight. Although the training apparatus 1 is for a user to train while seated on the seating unit 10, the training apparatus 1 may also be for a user to train while standing. However, by having the user train while seated on the seating unit 10, the overall height of the training apparatus 1 is reduced, allowing it to be installed in a training room with a low ceiling height, and the training apparatus 1 can be designed based on the user's seated height, which is less variable than the user's height.

[0053] According to conventional training devices and methods, in order to "strengthen the inner muscles of the shoulders," exercises such as pulling a rubber tube or holding a dumbbell may be performed by repeatedly rotating the upper arm inward and outward while keeping the elbow joint bent at 90 degrees against the side of the abdomen or horizontally with both shoulders. These exercises tend to be two-dimensional movements, and tend to be repeated without releasing tension in the inner muscles. In contrast, the training device 1 disclosed in the illustrated embodiment of the present invention induces the above movements as three-dimensional movements, and can be provided as a device that can be performed while creating a relaxed state of the muscles.
