Description

Sliding full-body exercise kit using elastic bands

[0001] The present invention relates to a sliding full-body exercise kit using an elastic band, and more specifically, to a sliding full-body exercise kit using an elastic band in which a waist fixing device, a wrist strap, and an ankle strap are each connected by an elastic band, a hand slider is connected to the wrist strap, the hand slider is worn on both hands, and slider shoes are worn on both feet, and a full-body exercise is performed by the elastic tension of the elastic band while lying face down and performing movements of bringing the upper body together or spreading it apart.

[0002] In general, as modern society becomes industrialized and urbanized and transportation methods develop, not only is the time spent walking or moving gradually decreasing, but the amount of exercise is also gradually decreasing due to a lack of time and space to exercise. This lack of exercise causes muscle aging and stiffness, leads to easy fatigue, and is a major cause of adult diseases.

[0003] In particular, a lack of exercise leads to abdominal obesity or waist obesity, and such abdominal and waist obesity can cause various metabolic diseases, such as ischemic heart disease like myocardial infarction or angina pectoris, cerebrovascular disorders like cerebral infarction or cerebral hemorrhage, and insulin-independent diabetes.

[0004] Accordingly, while there is a continuing trend of distributing exercise equipment that allows busy modern people to exercise in various forms both indoors and outdoors, outdoor exercise equipment has the disadvantage of being cumbersome to move and requiring large spaces, whereas indoor exercise equipment has the disadvantage of reduced effectiveness and enjoyment; therefore, efforts to address these issues are ongoing.

[0005] For example, regarding outdoor exercise, people engage in various activities such as walking or jogging to improve their physical fitness, but these exercises are subject to many restrictions regarding time and place.

[0006] In addition, representative indoor exercise equipment includes treadmills, push-up bars, stationary bikes, bench presses, dumbbells, gym balls, jump ropes, and pull-up bars. As the indoor exercise population increases, many pieces of equipment are also being developed that combine these exercise methods to enable complex exercises.

[0007] However, since indoor exercise equipment is generally expensive, it is difficult for individuals to purchase it at home, creating a problem where people have no choice but to use gyms equipped with a wide variety of equipment.

[0008] Moreover, as many users share indoor exercise equipment, there is a risk of secondary infection through the equipment, and introverted users are reluctant to exercise with many people, which makes it difficult for them to exercise properly.

[0009] Accordingly, various exercise equipment is being developed and distributed to enable convenient exercise at home.

[0010] As an example of prior art, an exercise device using a rubber belt, disclosed in Utility Model Publication No. 20-2023-0002020, has been devised. This device is equipped with a fixing body at one end that is positioned inside a door and is fixed between the side of the door and the door frame when the door is closed, and a fixing belt at the other end that is positioned outside the door. It is composed of a first rubber belt, the central part of which is fixed by a first knot fixing part at the lower side of the fixing belt and divided into two branches, with a handle provided at the divided end through a second knot fixing part and a first ring. It is also composed of a second rubber belt, the central part of which is fixed by a third knot fixing part at the lower side of the fixing belt and divided into two branches, with a foot fixing band provided at the divided end through a fourth knot fixing part and a second ring. By improving the structure of the exercise device using the elasticity of the rubber belt in a simple and efficient manner, it is possible to supply it at a low price, and it enables efficient performance of various exercises, such as stretching, aerobic exercise, and stretching to lengthen muscles.

[0011] However, since this conventional technology requires the door to be connected by a fixing belt, there is a problem that, for example, no movement can be performed in a space without a door, and because the door cannot be opened or closed while exercising, there is a problem that other residents are restricted from entering the indoor space.

[0012] As another example of prior art, a belt-type exercise device for body correction registered as Utility Model No. 20-0275189 has been devised. This device comprises a compression seat that is folded to a predetermined length, a pair of belts that are fixed to the lengthwise ends of the inner surface of the compression seat and whose length is arbitrarily adjusted by a pair of left and right buckles and which are hooked onto the knees or soles of the feet to pull the compression seat when in use, and male and female clips that are installed on one side of the pair of left and right belts and are coupled and separated in correspondence with each other. By wearing a backrest on the waist or back of the body and applying pressure to the spine of the body through tension created by hooking the belt onto the knees or feet and pulling with a certain pressure, the body is corrected to a proper posture to promote blood circulation or can be strengthened through various gymnastic exercises.

[0013] However, since these conventional technologies allow for body correction while the user is seated, there is a problem in that they cannot significantly achieve the desired effects on the user's entire body, such as training not only upper body muscles but also lower body muscles and abdominal muscles.

[0014] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a sliding full-body exercise kit using an elastic band that enables full-body exercise through the elastic tension of the elastic band, allowing anyone to easily enjoy exercise at home or indoors, and to avoid the burden of purchase costs due to its simple configuration, by wearing hand sliders connected to wrist straps on both hands and slider shoes connected to ankle straps on both feet, and then performing upper and lower body exercises by spreading or bringing together both arms and feet while lying face down on a sliding mat, or performing upper body exercises by lying face down with both arms spread while keeping the user's knees fixed.

[0015] As a means to achieve the above objective, the sliding full-body exercise equipment kit using an elastic band according to the present invention comprises: a waist fixing body that wraps around the waist; a waist fixing arm Velcro strap sewn and fixed along the longitudinal direction of one side of the body; a waist fixing male Velcro part provided on the back side of the waist fixing arm Velcro strap and attached to the waist fixing arm Velcro strap when the waist fixing body is wrapped around the waist; a waist fixing device having upper connecting loops with their lower ends sewn and fixed to each upper side of the waist fixing body, and lower connecting loops with their upper ends sewn and fixed to each lower side of the waist fixing body; an upper elastic band having elastic lower connecting loops at their lower ends that are respectively connected to the upper connecting loops sewn and fixed to each upper side of the waist fixing body, and hand connecting loops at their upper ends; and a lower elastic band having elastic upper connecting loops at their upper ends that are respectively connected to the lower connecting loops sewn and fixed to each lower side of the waist fixing body, and ankle connecting loops at their lower ends. It includes a wrist strap having a lower wrist connecting loop, each connected to a hand connecting loop of the upper elastic band, provided at the bottom, and an upper wrist connecting loop, each sewn and fixed at the top; a hand slider connected to the upper wrist connecting loop of the wrist strap and fitted onto the hand; an ankle strap having an ankle strap connecting loop, each connected to an ankle connecting loop of the lower elastic band, provided at the top, and a shoe connecting loop, each provided at the bottom, which is fastened and fixed to the user's ankle; and a slider shoe having a slider shoe loop connected to the shoe connecting loop of the ankle strap provided on one side, and a sliding pad portion capable of sliding provided on the bottom surface, which is worn on both feet of the user.

[0016] Furthermore, the hand slider comprises: a hand slider body into which fingers, a palm, and the back of the hand are fitted; a slider connecting part provided on the lower side of the hand slider body and connected to the upper wrist connecting loop of the wrist strap; and a slip pad part with a circumference sewn and fixed to one side of the hand slider body.

[0017] Furthermore, the slider connecting part includes a slider connecting loop, the upper end of which is sewn and fixed to the lower end of the hand slider body, and the lower end of which is hooked onto the upper wrist connecting loop of the wrist strap.

[0018] Furthermore, the slider connecting part comprises: a wrist male / female Velcro strap, the lower end of which is sewn and fixed to the upper end of the wrist strap; a wrist Velcro connecting hole, which is provided horizontally through the lower end of the hand slider body and around which the wrist male / female Velcro strap is wound; and a slider reinforcing part sewn and fixed along the circumference of the wrist Velcro connecting hole to prevent the lower end of the wrist Velcro connecting hole from breaking due to the pulling motion of the wrist male / female Velcro strap wound around the wrist Velcro connecting hole.

[0019] The sliding full-body exercise equipment kit using an elastic band according to the present invention is expected to have the following effects. First, after wearing a waist fixation device around the waist, a hand slider connected to the waist fixation device is worn on the hand, and an ankle strap is secured around the ankle while wearing slider shoes. Then, while lying face down on a slip mat with the upper body spread out both arms and feet, and then raising the upper body to bring the spread arms and feet together while moving the upper body and lower body forward and backward, strengthening exercises for the upper body and lower body muscles are performed, thereby allowing for the expectation of a full-body muscle exercise effect.

[0020] Second, after wearing the waist brace around the waist, attaching the hand sliders connected to the brace to the hands, and securing the ankle straps to the ankles while wearing the slider shoes, the user presses the knees against the slip mat to fix them in place. Then, by repeatedly performing movements of extending the upper body while spreading both arms and bending the upper body while bringing both arms together, a strengthening exercise for the upper body muscles is performed.

[0021] Third, by repeatedly performing the motion of bending and straightening the knees while lying face down, then raising the upper body and lying face down again, the user can expect abdominal muscle strengthening exercises. Furthermore, when bending and straightening the upper body, the tension of the upper and lower elastic bands is transferred directly to the user's lower body as well as the upper body, so the user can expect significant effects in both upper and lower body muscle exercises.

[0022] Finally, because it consists of a simple configuration, it can be used anywhere and does not burden consumers with purchase costs. Furthermore, since the waist fixation device, upper elastic band, lower elastic band, wrist strap, hand slider, ankle strap, and slider shoes are interconnected, any one component can be replaced, thereby minimizing maintenance costs.

[0044] In addition, the hand slider (50) of the present invention is connected to the wrist upper connecting ring (41) of the wrist strap (40) and is fitted onto the hand, and is formed in a glove shape with a hollow interior as illustrated to fit the user's hand.

[0045] At this time, the hand slider (50) is provided with a hand slider body (51) into which fingers, palms, and the back of the hand are fitted, a slider connecting part (52) provided on the lower side of the hand slider body (51) and connected to the wrist upper connecting loop (41) of the wrist strap (40), and a slip pad part (53) with a circumference fixed by sewing on one side of the hand slider body (51).

[0046] The ankle strap (60) is provided with an ankle strap connecting loop (61) at the top that is connected to the ankle connecting loop (32) of the lower elastic band (30) and is fastened to the ankle. In order to wrap around and fasten the user's ankle, the ankle strap (60) is also provided with male and female Velcro parts that are detachably attached to each other.

[0047] In addition, a shoe connecting loop (62) to which the slider shoe (90) is connected is provided at the bottom of the ankle strap (60).

[0048] One side of the slider shoe (90) is provided with a slider shoe loop (91) connected to the shoe connecting loop (62), and the bottom surface of the slider shoe (90) is provided with a sliding pad portion (92) capable of sliding.

[0049] The ankle strap (60) and the slider shoe (90) can be connected through direct connection of the shoe connecting loop (62) and the slider shoe loop (91), but can also be connected via an ankle elastic band (63).

[0050] The above-mentioned sliding pad portion (92) may be coated on the bottom surface of the slider shoe (90) or the sliding pad portion (92) may be fixed by sewing.

[0051] In order to perform full-body exercise using the present invention as described above, a slip mat (80) on which the hand slider (50) is in close contact and slides is further provided. At this time, a sliding resin part (81) may be applied to the surface of the slip mat (80), or a separate sliding pad part may be provided and then fixed to the surface of the slip mat (80) by sewing.

[0052] In order to perform exercise using the sliding full-body exercise equipment kit using the elastic band of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 8, the waist fixing device (10) is worn around the waist, the elastic lower connecting ring (21) of the upper elastic band (20) is connected to the upper connecting ring (14) of the waist fixing device (10), and the elastic upper connecting ring (31) of the lower elastic band (30) is connected to the lower connecting ring (15) of the waist fixing device (10).

[0053] Additionally, the wrist lower connecting ring (41) of the wrist strap (40) is connected to the hand connecting ring (22) of the upper elastic band (20), and the slider connecting part (52) of the hand slider (50) is connected to the wrist upper connecting ring (42) of the wrist strap (40).

[0054] Additionally, the ankle strap connecting loop (61) of the ankle strap (60) is connected to the ankle connecting loop (32) of the lower elastic band (30), and the slider shoe loop (91) of the slider shoe (90) is connected to the shoe connecting loop (62) provided at the bottom of the ankle strap (60).

[0055] Afterwards, the user puts the ankle strap (60) on their ankle and the hand slider (50) on their hand. Then, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the user lies face down on the sleep mat (80) with the hand sliders (50) on both arms and the slider shoes (90) on both feet in close contact, and spreads out both the upper and lower body, ensuring that the user's stomach does not touch the sleep mat (80).

[0056] At this time, to allow the user to support themselves on the sleep mat (80), the user spreads their arms and extends their upper and lower body, then brings the extended upper and lower body together again, and repeats the motion of extending it again to perform muscle strengthening exercises for the user's upper and lower body, i.e., full-body exercises.

[0057] In this way, as the user repeatedly performs the motion of spreading out and then raising and gathering the upper and lower body while lying face down, the hand sliders (50) worn on both arms and the slider shoes (90) worn on both feet slide and spread out and gather by the sliding resin part (81) of the slip mat (80), respectively, and the upper elastic band (20) and lower elastic band (30) connected to the waist fixing device (10) are pulled and gathered repeatedly. At the same time, a countermeasure force is transmitted to the user's arms, legs, and abdominal muscles to prevent the user from completely lying face down by causing the chest, abdomen, and knees to come into contact with the slip mat (80), thereby delivering strong stimulation to the user's upper body as well as lower body, and thus performing upper body muscle exercises as well as lower body muscle exercises.

[0058] Additionally, when the upper elastic band (20) moves away from the waist fixation device (10), the upper elastic band (20) is extended, and when the upper elastic band (20) moves closer to the waist fixation device (10), a corresponding force is transmitted to the user's upper body that corresponds to the return force of the upper elastic band (20) attempting to return to its original position due to the elastic tension of the upper elastic band (20). When the lower elastic band (30) moves away from the waist fixation device (10), the lower elastic band (30) is extended, and when the lower elastic band (30) moves closer to the waist fixation device (10), a corresponding force is transmitted to the user's lower body that corresponds to the return force of the lower elastic band (30) attempting to return to its original position due to the elastic tension of the lower elastic band (30), thereby enabling exercise of the user's upper body muscles as well as lower body muscles.

[0059] That is, when the user lies face down and spreads both arms, the hand slider (50) and the slider shoes (90) move away from the waist fixation device (10), respectively, and accordingly, the upper elastic band (20) connecting the wrist strap (40) and the waist fixation device (10) and the lower elastic band (30) connecting the ankle strap (60) and the waist fixation device (10) are pulled, thereby performing a full-body exercise.

[0060] In addition, as shown in FIG. 12, if the user fixes their knees in close contact with the sleep mat (80) and then repeatedly performs the motion of lying face down with only their upper body as shown in FIG. 13, spreading their arms, or bringing them together again as in FIG. 12, then the user's upper body muscles and thigh muscles can be strengthened.

[0061] At this time, the user may proceed with upper body exercises after attaching a separate knee protector to prevent the knee from sliding on the slippery resin part (81) provided on the surface of the slip mat (80).

[0062] The present invention allows anyone to easily connect the waist fixation device (10), upper elastic band (20), lower elastic band (30), wrist strap (40), hand slider (50), ankle strap (60), and slider shoes (90) to each other, and then wear the waist fixation device (10), wrist strap (40), and ankle strap (60) on the waist, wrist, and ankle respectively, and then put their hands on the hand slider (50) and wear the slider shoes (90) on their feet to perform exercise, thereby enabling full-body exercise to be performed at home or indoors.

[0063] In addition, since the waist fixing device (10), upper elastic band (20), lower elastic band (30), wrist strap (40), hand slider (50), ankle strap (60), and slider shoes (90) of the present invention are connected to each other for use, storage can be easily achieved by disconnecting the connection after use, and maintenance costs can be minimized by replacing only one of the waist fixing device (10), upper elastic band (20), lower elastic band (30), wrist strap (40), hand slider (50), ankle strap (60), and slider shoes (90) with a new one.

[0064] The slider connecting part (52) of the present invention is provided with a slider connecting loop (521) in which the upper end is sewn and fixed to the lower end of the hand slider body (51) and the lower end is hooked onto the wrist upper connecting loop (42) of the wrist strap (40).

[0065] The present invention, thus constructed, can be used by connecting the slider connecting part (52), which is composed of a slider connecting ring (521), to the wrist upper connecting ring (42) of the wrist strap (40).

[0066] Additionally, the slider connecting part (52) comprises a wrist male / female Velcro strap (522) whose lower end is sewn and fixed to the upper end of the wrist strap (40), and a wrist Velcro connecting hole (523) that is horizontally penetrating the lower end of the hand slider body (51) and through which the wrist male / female Velcro strap (522) is wrapped.

[0067] Accordingly, the wrist male / female Velcro strap (522), with its lower end sewn and fixed to the upper end of the wrist strap (40), is wrapped around the wrist Velcro connection hole (523) of the hand slider body (51), and then the wrist male / female Velcro strap (522) is attached and fixed to connect the hand slider (50) and the wrist strap (40) for use.

[0068] At this time, a slider reinforcement part (524) is provided that is sewn and fixed along the circumference of the wrist Velcro connection hole (523) to prevent the lower end of the wrist Velcro connection hole (523) from being severed by a pulling motion while the wrist male / female Velcro strap (522) wrapped around the wrist Velcro connection hole (523) is attached.

[0069] Accordingly, when the hand slider (50) is pulled away from the waist fixing device (10) by the motion of the user lying face down on the sleep mat (80) and rotating both arms, the lower end of the wrist Velcro connection hole (523) is cut off by the pulling force of the wrist male / female Velcro strap (522), thereby preventing the connection between the wrist strap (40) and the hand slider (50) from being released.

[0070] As described above, the present invention has been explained by specific details such as specific components, limited embodiments, and drawings; however, this is provided merely to aid in a more comprehensive understanding of the invention, and the invention is not limited to the above embodiments. A person skilled in the art to which the invention pertains can make various modifications and variations from this description.

[0071] Accordingly, the scope of the present invention should not be limited to the described embodiments, and all things equivalent to or having equivalent variations to the claims set forth below, as well as the claims themselves, shall be considered to fall within the scope of the concept of the present invention.

[0072] The present invention can be widely used as a member personal training tool or home training tool in professional fitness centers.
