Filed:

Mar 8, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/043351

Inventors:

WENDELL LAWRENCE - MERIDIAN ID, US

International Classification:

A63B 24/00

US Classification:

482 4

Abstract:

Disclosed is a sprinter training aid which pulls the sprinter forward in an over speed condition, for the purpose of exercise the muscles which pull the leg forward when running, such the hip flexor muscles. Two devices can be used, one pulling the sprinter forward and one pulling the sprinter backward at the start of a run. The backward pulling at the start of the run exercises the sprinter's muscles which are used when going from a stationary position, to a full speed sprint. The device which pulls the sprinter forward would take over when the rearward pulling device shut off, and pull the sprinter to an over speed condition. Include in the device is a cable and cable winder, and a motor, computer, and a wireless connection to a data compilation computer.

International Classification:

A63K 3/02

US Classification:

482 8

Abstract:

A force feedback starting block and system for using it. The technology includes starting blocks with sensors for pressure, a step sensor for determining where the runner's first step out of the starting blocks occurs, a laser ruler, and a beam break for determining when a runner crosses a finish line. Timing and pressure information is displayed on a computer display.
