  • the latissimus, the biceps, the triceps, the shoulder muscles, the chest muscles, the back muscles and the abdominal muscles should be trained.
  • This grip causes the muscles in the hand and arm area to tighten and leads to overuse of the joints, especially the wrists.
  • None of the devices according to the state of the art allow for a relaxed, uncramped position of the hand during training.
  • the user When using latissimus pullers, for example, the user must pull in front of or behind their head to avoid colliding with the pull rod. As a result of the rigid pull rod, the trainee will carry out the entire training process with the hands at a constant distance from one another without having any possibility of performing a pulling, rotating or pivoting movement. During this non-physiological movement, the back of the hand cramps on the pull rod and thus leads to severe strain or damage to the wrists. Furthermore, the shoulder musculature also cramps during training with a latissimus traction apparatus and the trainee forms a hollow back as a result of this cramping, which leads to a compression of individual vertebrae.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung für Sportgeräte zum Trainieren des menschlichen Muskelapparates gemäß dem Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a device for sports equipment for training the human muscular system according to claim 1.

In der heutigen Gesellschaft üben die meisten Menschen berufliche Tätigkeiten, bzw. Bürotätigkeiten aus, bei denen körperliche Ertüchtigungen nicht mehr erforderlich sind. Infolge dieser sitzenden Tätigkeiten ergeben sich durch den Bewegungsmangel entsprechend hervorgerufene Zivilisationskrankheiten, insbesondere bildet sich die Muskulatur zurück, das Skelett und die Wirbelsäule des Menschen werden geschwächt.In today's society, most people have jobs or office jobs that do not require physical training. As a result of these sedentary activities, civilization diseases are caused by the lack of exercise, in particular the muscles recede, the skeleton and the spine of the human being are weakened.

Gemäß dem Stand der Technik sind eine Vielzahl von Vorrichtungen für Konditions- und Sportgeräte und physiotherapeutische Geräte bekannt, bei denen als Handstücke für die Greifeinrichtung zur Übertragung der menschlichen Muskelkraft während ihrer Inbetriebnahme nur starre und fest montierte Bauteile vorgesehen sind. Die Möglichkeiten, sich während des Trainings in verschiedenen räumlichen Ebenen zu bewegen, sind hierbei sehr begrenzt. Meistens sind nur Bewegungen in einer einzigen Richtung oder räumlichen Ebene möglich.According to the prior art, a variety of devices for conditioning and sports equipment and physiotherapeutic devices are known in which only rigid and fixed components are provided as handpieces for the gripping device for transmitting human muscle power during their commissioning. The possibilities to move in different spatial planes during the training are very limited. Most of the time, only movements in a single direction or spatial plane are possible.

Ein Krafttrainingsgerät, welches beispielsweise als Zugvorrichtung ausgebildet ist, besitzt einen Seilzug, der an entsprechend zu variierende Gewichte angreift und wobei der Seilzug mittels einer Greifeinrichtung betätigt wird. Der Seilzug der Zugvorrichtung ist über eine Umlenkrolle geführt, die an einer Rahmenschiene derart angeordnet ist, dass sie oberhalb eines auf einem Hocker sitzenden Benutzers angeordnet ist.A strength training device, which is designed as a traction device, for example, has a cable pull that acts on weights that are to be varied accordingly, and the cable pull is actuated by means of a gripping device. The cable pull of the pulling device is guided over a deflection roller, which is arranged on a frame rail in such a way that it is arranged above a user sitting on a stool.

Als Greifeinrichtung können derartige Sportgeräte an ihrem Seilzug eine über eine Anlenkvorrichtung befestigte, starre Zugstange aufweisen, die gerade, abgewinkelt oder auch mehrfach gewinkelt sein kann und die vom Trainierenden durch Zug in nur einer bestimmten räumlichen Ebene bewegt werden kann.As a gripping device, such sports equipment can have a rigid pull rod attached to a linkage device on its cable pull, which can be straight, angled or multiply angled and which can be moved by the trainee by train in only a specific spatial plane.

Für derartige Sportgeräte sind auch entsprechend als Zugbügel oder auch als Zughanteln bezeichnete Greifelemente bekannt. Die Zugbügel sind größtenteils als Dreiecke ausgebildet. Diese Greifelemente weisen ein gerades, starres Krafvermittlungsstück und eine Anlenkvorrichtung zur Befestigung an einem Seilzug auf. Fast alle gemäß dem Stand der Technik bekannten Greifeinrichtungen können zusätzlich von einer Kunststoffummantelung umgeben sein, welche um die Zylinderachse drehbar ist, so dass eine Rotation um diese Zylinderachse möglich ist.For such sports equipment, gripping elements referred to as tension bars or dumbbells are also known. The tie rods are mostly designed as triangles. These gripping elements have a straight, rigid power transmission piece and a linkage device for attachment to a cable pull. Almost all gripping devices known from the prior art can additionally be surrounded by a plastic casing which can be rotated about the cylinder axis, so that rotation about this cylinder axis is possible.

Derartige Trainingsgeräte bzw. Einrichtungen werden als physiotherapeutische Geräte, Sportgeräte, Fitness- und Bodybuilding Geräte zum Aufbau der menschlichen Muskelkraft benutzt.Such training devices or devices are used as physiotherapeutic devices, sports equipment, fitness and bodybuilding devices to build up human muscle strength.

Mit all diesen Geräten soll insbesondere der Latissimus, der Bizeps, der Trizeps, die Schultermuskulatur, die Brustmuskulatur, die Rückenmuskulatur und die Bauchmuskulatur des Menschen trainiert werden.With all these devices, the latissimus, the biceps, the triceps, the shoulder muscles, the chest muscles, the back muscles and the abdominal muscles in particular should be trained.

Bei allen bekannten Vorrichtungen ist infolge der Starrheit und auch infolge des nur geringen Abstands des Kraftübertragungsabschnitts, d.h. infolge des nur geringen Abstands zwischen der Anlenkvorrichtung zur Befestigung an einem Seil oder an einer Kette und dem Kraftübertragungsabschnitt der Greifvorrichtung der gesamte räumliche Bewegungsfreiraum für den Trainierenden sehr eingeschränkt.In all known devices, due to the rigidity and also due to the only small distance of the force transmission section, i.e. due to the only small distance between the articulation device for attachment to a rope or chain and the force transmission section of the gripping device, the entire spatial freedom of movement for the user is very limited .

Bei allen Sportgeräten gemäß dem Stand der Technik muss der Trainierende weiterhin zur Betätigung die Greifeinrichtung im sogenannten Hakengriff klammernd und kraftvoll umfassen.In all state-of-the-art sports equipment, the person exercising must continue to grasp the gripping device in a so-called hook grip and forcefully in order to actuate it.

Dieser Griff bewirkt eine Anspannung der Muskeln im Hand- und Armbereich und führt zu einer Überbeanspruchung der Gelenke, insbesondere der Handgelenke.This grip causes the muscles in the hand and arm area to tighten and leads to overuse of the joints, especially the wrists.

Alle Vorrichtungen gemäß dem Stand der Technik erlauben keine entspannte, unverkrampfte Haltung der Hand während des Trainings.None of the devices according to the state of the art allow for a relaxed, uncramped position of the hand during training.

Diese krampfhafte Haltung allein führt schon zu unphysiologischen Bewegungsabläufen des Trainierenden. Und infolge der beim Stand der Technik nur geringen räumlichen Abmessungen des Kraftübertragungsabschnittes ist auch der Bewegungsradius sehr begrenzt, wodurch auch die Ausübung von Drehschwenkbewegungen nur sehr beschränkt möglich ist.This convulsive posture alone leads to non-physiological movement sequences on the part of the trainee. And as a result of the small spatial dimensions of the power transmission section in the prior art, the radius of movement is also very limited, which also means that rotary pivoting movements can only be carried out to a very limited extent.

Bei der Verwendung von beispielsweise Latissimus-Zugapparaten muss der Trainierende, um eine Kollision mit der Zugstange zu vermeiden, den Zug vor oder hinter seinem Kopf durchführen. Infolge der starren Zugstange wird der Trainierende den gesamten Trainingsablauf mit konstantem Abstand der Hände zueinander durchführen ohne, dass er irgendeine Möglichkeit hat, eine Zug- Rotations- oder auch Drehschwenkbewegung auszuführen. Bei diesem unphysiologischen Bewegungsablauf verkrampft sich der Handrücken an der Zugstange und führt somit zu einer starken Beanspruchung oder Schädigung der Handgelenke. Weiterhin verkrampft sich auch die Schultermuskulatur während des Trainings mit einem Latissimus-Zugapparat und der Trainierende bildet infolge dieser Verkrampfung ein Hohlkreuz aus, was zu einer Stauchung einzelner Wirbel führt.When using latissimus pullers, for example, the user must pull in front of or behind their head to avoid colliding with the pull rod. As a result of the rigid pull rod, the trainee will carry out the entire training process with the hands at a constant distance from one another without having any possibility of performing a pulling, rotating or pivoting movement. During this non-physiological movement, the back of the hand cramps on the pull rod and thus leads to severe strain or damage to the wrists. Furthermore, the shoulder musculature also cramps during training with a latissimus traction apparatus and the trainee forms a hollow back as a result of this cramping, which leads to a compression of individual vertebrae.

Bei der Verwendung von Zugbügeln können aufgrund der Starrheit der Kraftübertragungsabschitte auch keine ausreichenden Drehschwenkbewegungen ausgeführt werden.When using tension brackets, due to the rigidity of the force transmission sections, it is also not possible to carry out sufficient rotary pivoting movements.

Beim Stand der Technik entsteht infolge der verkrampften Haltung der Hände und der beim Festhalten der Greifeinrichtung aufzuwendenden Kraft eine Schädigung der Gelenke und es können Muskelzerrungen auftreten.In the prior art, as a result of the cramped position of the hands and the force to be applied when holding the gripping device, damage to the joints occurs and muscle strains can occur.

Dieser Nachteil wurde entsprechend der DE 43 30 695 A1 erkannt.This disadvantage was according to the DE 43 30 695 A1 recognized.

Gemäß dieser Schrift ist beispielsweise eine Vorrichtung für Geräte zur kraft-und/oder momentmäßigen Beeinflussung des menschlichen Muskelapparates bekannt, bei der über eine Gelenkvorrichtung zwischen dem Kraftvermittlungsstück und der Greifvorrichtung eine Drehschwenkbewegung in geringerem Umfang möglich ist. Mittels der Gelenkvorrichtung ist die Greifvorrichtung entsprechend gegenüber dem Kraftvermittlungsstück bewegbar.According to this document, for example, a device for devices for influencing the human muscular system by force and/or torque is known, in which a pivoting movement to a lesser extent is possible via a joint device between the force-transmitting piece and the gripping device. The gripping device can be moved relative to the force-transmitting piece by means of the joint device.

Die Greifvorrichtung selbst besteht gemäß dieser Schrift aus zwei sich spiegelbildlich gegenüberliegenden und im Wesentlichen L- förmig ausgebildeten rohrförmigen Schenkeln. Eine eingeschränkte Drehschwenkbewegung wird gemäß dieser Schrift mittels entsprechender Gelenkverbindungen ermöglicht, indem beispielsweise am unteren Ende eine Kugelpfanne ausgebildet ist, in welcher eine kugelsegmentartige Vorrichtung drehkippbar gelagert ist, die dann mittels eines Verbindungsglied mit der Greifeinrichtung verbunden ist.According to this document, the gripping device itself consists of two mirror-inverted, opposite, essentially L-shaped tubular legs. According to this document, a limited rotational pivoting movement is made possible by means of appropriate articulated connections, for example by forming a ball socket at the lower end, in which a spherical segment-like device is rotatably tilted, which is then connected to the gripping device by means of a connecting member.

Die Position der Hände an der Greifvorrichtung ist gemäß dieser Schrift angespannt, starr und ortsfest. Der Trainierende wird hier, wie auch beim übrigen Stand der Technik, die Zugstange fest in der einmal eingenommenen Position im Hakengriff umfassen.According to this document, the position of the hands on the gripping device is tense, rigid and stationary. Here, as in the rest of the prior art, the person exercising will grasp the pull rod firmly in the hooked grip once it has been assumed.

Eine Vorrichtung für Sportgeräte zur Befestigung an einem Seilzug mit einer besonderen Greifeinrichtung ist aus der US- PS 2014/0329650 bekannt. Gemäß dieser Schrift besteht die Greifeinrichtung aus einem konisch ausgebildeten Teil, welches aber ebenfalls fest umklammert und im Hakengriff gehalten werden muss.A device for sports equipment for attachment to a cable with a special gripping device is from U.S. Patent 2014/0329650 famous. According to this document, the gripping device consists of a conical part, which must also be gripped tightly and held in the hooked grip.

Entsprechend einer weiteren Schrift, der DE 100 38 476 A1 , ist ein Sportgerät bekannt, bei dem der Trainierende keine Greifbewegungen und insbesondere keinen Hakengriff ausüben muss. Entsprechend dieser Schrift sind mindestens zwei bewegliche Kugeln über ein Verbindungselement in Form einer Schnur zu einem Schwingungssystem gekoppelt. Zum Stärken der Bauch-, Rücken- und Beinmuskulatur begibt sich der Trainierende in die Rückenlage und tritt mit beiden Füßen in abwechselnder Reihenfolge gegen die untere Kugel des Sportgerät. Im Falle, dass die Bauch-, Rücken- und Armmuskulatur aufgebaut werden sollen, benutzt der Trainierende das Sportgerät gemäß dieser Schrift quasi als Boxsack. Der Trainierende schlägt mit den Armen gegen die untere Kugel, die dann eine schwer oder nicht vorhersehbare Bewegung durchführt. Das Sportgerät gemäß dieser Schrift soll quasi die Anwesenheit eines Spielgegner oder Boxgegners simulieren.According to another writing, the DE 100 38 476 A1 A piece of sports equipment is known in which the trainee does not have to perform any gripping movements and in particular no hook grip. According to this document, at least two movable spheres are coupled to form an oscillating system via a connecting element in the form of a cord. To strengthen the abdominal, back and leg muscles, the user lies on their back and kicks the lower ball of the sports equipment with both feet in alternating order. In the event that the abdominal, back and arm muscles are to be built up, the person exercising uses the sports equipment according to this document as a kind of punching bag. The trainee hits the lower ball with their arms, which then performs a difficult or unpredictable movement. The sports equipment according to this document is supposed to simulate the presence of a game opponent or boxing opponent.

Im Bereich der spielerischen körperlichen Ertüchtigung ist die Verwendung von kugelähnlichen Teilen, Kugeln oder Bällen bekannt.In the field of playful physical training, the use of ball-like parts, spheres or balls is known.

Sportgeräte oder Spielzeuge, die aus zwei Bällen bestehen, die an den jeweiligen Enden einer Schnur angeordnet sind, dienen hier beispielsweise dazu, durch geschickte Handbewegungen zwei Bälle miteinander in Kontakt zu bringen, um diese aneinander stoßen zu lassen. Hierbei sollen die Bälle auf verschiedenen Bahnen bewegt werden und zusätzlich können dann bei entsprechender Materialauswahl auch laute Geräusche produziert werden.Sports equipment or toys, which consist of two balls that are arranged at the respective ends of a string, are used here, for example, to bring two balls into contact with one another by skillful hand movements in order to let them bump into one another. The balls should be moved on different tracks and loud noises can also be produced if the appropriate material is selected.

Derartige Spielgeräte für sportliche Aktivitäten und Geschicklichkeitsübungen sind beispielsweise aus der US-PS 5 492 335 , der US-PS 3157962 , der US-PS 332 5940 und der US-PS 337 621 bekannt. DE 20 2008 003 1430 offenbart eine Vorrichtung für Sportgeräte zum Trainieren des menschlichen Muskelapparates mit einer beweglich an einem Kraftübertragungsabschnitt des Sportgerätes anbringbaren Greifeinrichtung zur Übertragung der Muskelkraft auf das Sportgerät. Die Greifeinrichtung besteht aus einem im Wesentlichen kugelförmigen Teil.Such playground equipment for sports activities and skill exercises are, for example, from U.S. Patent 5,492,335 , the U.S. Patent 3157962 , the U.S. Patent 332 5940 and the U.S. Patent 337,621 famous. DE 20 2008 003 1430 discloses a device for sports equipment for training the human muscular apparatus with a gripping device that can be movably attached to a force transmission section of the sports equipment for transmitting muscle power to the sports equipment. The gripping device consists of a substantially spherical part.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik ist es nun Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Vorrichtung für Sportgeräte und ein Sportgerät der gattungsgemäßen Art zu schaffen, die einen physiologisch richtigen Bewegungsablauf des Menschen beim Training ermöglichen und eine Schädigungen der Gelenke vermeiden, um somit zu besseren Trainingsergebnissen zu führen.Proceeding from this state of the art, it is now the object of the present invention to create a device for sports equipment and sports equipment of the generic type that enable a physiologically correct movement sequence for people during training and avoid damage to the joints, in order to achieve better training results to lead.

Gelöst wird dieser Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1.This problem is solved by the features of claim 1.

Entsprechend der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung für Sportgeräte und mittels des erfindungsgemäßen Sportgeräts zum Trainieren des menschlichen Muskelapparates ist ein besseres Muskeltraining als beim Stand der Technik möglich, da keine erheblichen Gewichtswiderstände überwunden werden müssen, bzw. die Durchführung eines extremen Krafttrainings nicht mehr erforderlich ist.According to the device according to the invention for sports equipment and using the sports equipment according to the invention for training the human muscular system, better muscle training is possible than in the prior art, since no significant weight resistances have to be overcome or extreme strength training is no longer necessary.

Die Besonderheit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist in der Kontur des Greifelements und der damit verbundenen Führung der Hand während des Trainings zu sehen. Erfindungsgemäß befinden sich am Ende der Greifeinrichtung zwei im Wesentlichen kugelförmige Teile.The special feature of the device according to the invention can be seen in the contour of the gripping element and the associated guidance of the hand during training. According to the invention, there are two essentially spherical parts at the end of the gripping device.

Die Teile werden vom Trainierende mit der Handfläche und den Finger ohne Zuhilfenahme des Daumens, d.h. ohne, dass der Daumen die Teile umgreift, umfasst. Entsprechend dieser Positionierung des oder der Teile innerhalb der Handfläche ergibt sich eine besondere Kraftübertragung von der Handfläche zu den jeweils zu trainierenden Muskeln.The parts are held by the trainee with the palm of the hand and the fingers without the help of the thumb, i.e. without the thumb gripping the parts. According to this positioning of the part(s) within the palm of the hand, there is a special transmission of force from the palm of the hand to the muscles to be trained.

Alternativ können zum Trainieren bestimmter Muskeln, beispielsweise der Deltamuskeln, die im Wesentlichen kugelförmigen Teile auch nur mit den Fingerspitzen, ähnlich dem Pinzettengriff, umfasst werden.Alternatively, for training certain muscles, for example the deltoid muscles, the essentially spherical parts can also only be gripped with the fingertips, similar to the grip of tweezers.

Infolge der Verwendung der im Wesentlichen kugelförmigen Teile am Ende der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung als Greifeinrichtung wird die Hilfsmuskulatur des Handgelenks und des Unterarms nicht beansprucht.Due to the use of the essentially spherical parts at the end of the device according to the invention as a gripping device, the auxiliary muscles of the wrist and forearm are not stressed.

Im Gegensatz zum Stand der Technik wird mit der Erfindung ein äußerst gelenksschonendes Training ermöglicht, was speziell auch im physiotherapeutischen Bereich äußerst wirkungsvoll einsetzbar ist.In contrast to the state of the art, the invention enables training that is extremely easy on the joints, which can also be used extremely effectively in the field of physiotherapy.

Die erfindungsgemäße Greifeinrichtung und das erfindungsgemäße Sportgerät ermöglichen somit einen optimalen Bewegungsablauf bzw. Bewegungsradius für den Menschen beim Training.The gripping device according to the invention and the sports equipment according to the invention thus enable an optimal movement sequence or radius of movement for people during training.

Erfindungsgemäß können Zug- Druck- und Rotationsbewegungen und Kombinationen aller Bewegungen gleichzeitig in allen drei räumlichen Dimensionen quasi ohne Begrenzungen durchgeführt werden.According to the invention, pulling, pushing and rotating movements and combinations of all movements can be carried out simultaneously in all three spatial dimensions with virtually no limitations.

Die Erfindung soll nachfolgend anhand der Figuren 1,2,3 und 4 näher erläutert werden. Hierbei zeigen:

  • Figur 1: eine nicht erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform
    mit einer einzelnen Kugel als Greifeinrichtung,
  • Figur 2: eine weitere Ausführungsform, bei der die Greifeinrichtung als Doppelkugel ausgebildet ist und
  • Figur 3: die Anordnung von zwei Seilzugmaschinen und vier Trainingseinheiten mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung
  • Figur 4: ein Sportgerät während des Trainings, welches an einem elastischen Zwischenteil angebracht ist, welches an einer Türunterkante befestigt ist.
The invention is based on the Figures 1,2 , 3 and 4 be explained in more detail. Here show:
  • figure 1 : an embodiment not according to the invention
    with a single ball as a gripping device,
  • figure 2 : another embodiment in which the gripping device is designed as a double ball and
  • figure 3 : the arrangement of two cable machines and four training units with the device according to the invention
  • figure 4 : a sports device during exercise attached to an elastic intermediate member attached to a bottom edge of a door.

Entsprechend der Figur 1 ist eine nicht erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung mit der Greifvorrichtung für Sportgeräte dargestellt.According to the figure 1 a device not according to the invention is shown with the gripping device for sports equipment.

Entsprechend der Figur 1 weist die Vorrichtung eine Greifeinrichtung 2 mit einer Kugel 3 auf, die an einer kraftübertragenden, flexiblen Schnur 4 angeordnet ist. Zwischen Kugel 3 und dem Kraftübertragungsabschnitt 4 bzw. der Schnur ist im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ein Teil der Schur oder des Kraftübertragungsabschnittes 4 zwischen Schnur 4 und Kugel 3 als verstärkter Abschnitt 5 vorgesehen. Während an einer Seite der Schnur der Greifeinrichtung 2 eine Kugel befestigt ist, befindet sich am gegenüberliegenden Ende der Schnur 4 ein Verbindungsabschnitt 4b in Form einer Lasche zum Einhängen einer Anlenkvorrichtung, beispielsweise eines Karabinerhakens, für die Befestigung an dem Kraftübertragungsabschnitt eines Sportgerätes, insbesondere auch zur Befestigung an einem Zugseilende oder einer durch Gewichte höhenverstellbaren Basis eines Sportgerätes, bzw. einem elastisches Band, das einen Widerstand darstellt.According to the figure 1 the device has a gripping device 2 with a ball 3 which is arranged on a force-transmitting flexible cord 4 . In the exemplary embodiment shown, a part of the cord or of the force-transmitting section 4 between the cord 4 and the ball 3 is provided as a reinforced section 5 between the ball 3 and the force-transmitting section 4 or the cord. While a ball is fastened to one side of the cord of the gripping device 2, there is a connecting section 4b in the form of a lug at the opposite end of the cord 4 for attaching a linkage device, for example a snap hook, for attachment to the power transmission section of a piece of sports equipment, in particular also for Fastened to the end of a pull rope or a base of sports equipment that can be adjusted in height by weights, or an elastic band that represents resistance.

Der Verbindungsabschnitt 4b kann integriert mit der flexiblen Schnur 4 ausgebildet sein oder er kann als separates Bauteil an der Schnur befestigbar sein.The connection portion 4b may be formed integrally with the flexible cord 4, or it may be attachable to the cord as a separate component.

Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist der verstärkte Abschnitt 5 an der flexiblen Schnur 4 im Bereich der Kugel 3 angeordnet. Der Abschnitt 5 ist entsprechend seiner Form und seiner Abmessung dazu ausgelegt, während des Trainings zwischen einzelnen Fingern und dem Handrücken des Trainierenden positioniert zu werden. Zur Anordnung der flexiblen Schnur 4 im Raum zwischen den einzelnen Fingerwurzeln des Trainierenden ist daher der verstärkte Abschnitt 5 bevorzugt mit runden äußeren Konturen versehen, sodass die einlegte Schnur ergonomisch angepasst ist und keine störenden Auswirkungen auf die Bewegungsabläufe während des Trainings hat.In the illustrated embodiment, the reinforced section 5 is arranged on the flexible cord 4 in the area of the ball 3 . According to its shape and dimensions, the section 5 is designed to be positioned between individual fingers and the back of the hand of the trainee during training. To arrange the flexible cord 4 in the space between the individual finger roots of the trainee, the reinforced section 5 is therefore preferably provided with rounded outer contours, so that the inserted cord is ergonomically adapted and has no disruptive effects on the movement sequences during training.

Es ist ebenso möglich, keinen Abschnitt 5 für die Greifrichtung 2 vorzusehen und die flexible Schnur an sich mit den entsprechenden Abmessungen und Konturen zur Positionierung zwischen den Fingern auszustatten. Bei der Verwendung der erfindungsgemäßen Greifeinrichtung 2, beispielsweise am Seilende eines Zugturms, kann der Trainierende entsprechend der Positionierung des verstärkten Abschnittes 5 oder entsprechend der Positionierung der flexiblen Schnur 4, die Auswahl für die zu trainierenden Muskeln treffen. Eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist in der Figur 2 dargestellt. In der Figur 2 weist die Greifeinrichtung 2 entsprechend zwei im Wesentlichen kugelförmige Teile bzw. zwei Kugeln 3 und 3a auf. Bevorzugterweise ist der Durchmesser der Kugeln der Doppelanordnung geringer als der der Einzelanordnung. Beispielsweise beträgt der Durchmesser der Doppelanordnung ca. 40 mm, während der der Einzelanordnung ca. 50 mm beträgt.It is also possible not to provide a section 5 for the gripping direction 2 and to provide the flexible cord itself with the appropriate dimensions and contours for positioning between the fingers. When using the gripping device 2 according to the invention, for example at the rope end of a towing tower, the person exercising can select the muscles to be exercised according to the positioning of the reinforced section 5 or according to the positioning of the flexible cord 4 . An embodiment of the invention is in figure 2 shown. In the figure 2 correspondingly, the gripping device 2 has two substantially spherical parts or two balls 3 and 3a. Preferably, the diameter of the balls of the double arrangement is smaller than that of the single arrangement. For example, the diameter of the double array is about 40 mm, while that of the single array is about 50 mm.

Entsprechend der Figur 2 sind die zwei Kugeln an einer gemeinsamen Schnur angeordnet, in deren Mitte der Verbindungsabschnitt 4c in Form einer Lasche durch die Anbringung eines Klemmteils 8 ausgebildet ist. Die erfindungsgemäßen Greifeinrichtung 2 wird mittels der Anlenkvorrichtung bzw. eines Karabinerhakens 7 an dem Seil einer Zugvorrichtung befestigt. Beim Training wird die Position der Abschnitte 5,5a entsprechend dem zu trainierenden Muskel ausgewählt. Es ist jetzt möglich, sowohl den Abschnitt 5 beispielsweise zwischen Zeige- und Mittelfinger als auch den Abschnitt 5a entweder zwischen dem kleinem und Ringfinger oder zwischen Ringfinger und Mittelfinger zu platzieren.According to the figure 2 the two balls are arranged on a common cord, in the middle of which the connecting portion 4c is formed in the form of a tab by the attachment of a clamping part 8. The gripping device 2 according to the invention is attached to the cable of a traction device by means of the pivoting device or a snap hook 7 . During training, the position of the sections 5.5a is selected according to the muscle to be trained. It is now possible to place both the section 5, for example, between the index and middle finger and the section 5a either between the little and ring finger or between the ring finger and middle finger.

Somit können gezielt auch einzelne Muskeln gleichzeitig trainiert werden, zum Beispiel entsprechend der zuvor beschriebenen Positionierung der zwei Kugeln in einer Hand, sowohl der innere als auch den äußeren Bizeps.This means that individual muscles can also be trained at the same time, for example in accordance with the previously described positioning of the two balls in one hand, both the inner and outer biceps.

Das Training mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung erfolgt unter dem Anheben von nur geringen Gewichten.The training with the device according to the invention takes place by lifting only small weights.

Somit kann mit wenig Gewichtswiderstand von beispielsweise nur 5 kg effektiv, gezielt und gelenksschonend trainiert werden.This means that you can train effectively, specifically and in a way that is easy on the joints with little weight resistance of, for example, only 5 kg.

Entsprechend der Figur 3 ist als Beispiel eine Anordnung von zwei über einen Querträger 9 miteinander verbundenen senkrechten Pfosten 10 und 11 dargestellt, die auf entsprechenden Standflächen 12 und 13 befestigt sind. Im Bereich der Pfosten 10 und 11 sind zwei Zugeinrichtungen 14 und 15 angeordnet, die mit jeweils einer Aufnahmevorrichtung für Gewichtsblöcke korrespondieren.According to the figure 3 1 shows an example of an arrangement of two vertical posts 10 and 11 connected to one another via a crossbeam 9, which are fastened to corresponding bases 12 and 13. In the area of the posts 10 and 11, two pulling devices 14 and 15 are arranged, each of which corresponds to a receiving device for weight blocks.

Die mit Steckgewichten versehenen Gewichtsblöcke- Aufnahmevorrichtungen sind mit den Bezugsziffern 16 und 17 bezeichnet und im mittleren Bereich der beiden Standflächen 12 und 13 angeordnet, um eine ausreichende Stabilität der Anordnung zu gewährleisten. Die Gewichtsblöcke- Aufnahmevorrichtungen 16 und 17 sind über jeweils einen Seilzug 18,19 heb- und senkbar angeordnet. Die Zugeinrichtungen weisen jeweils eine am Querträger 9 angeordnete Umlenkrolle 20,21 und weiterhin jeweils zwei an den senkrechten Pfosten 10 und 11 angeordnete Rollen 22,23 und 24,25 auf.The weight block receiving devices provided with plug-in weights are denoted by the reference numerals 16 and 17 and are arranged in the central area of the two bases 12 and 13 in order to ensure sufficient stability of the arrangement. The weight blocks receiving devices 16 and 17 are each arranged to be raised and lowered via a cable 18,19. The pulling devices each have a deflection roller 20 , 21 arranged on the cross member 9 and also two rollers 22 , 23 and 24 , 25 arranged on the vertical posts 10 and 11 .

Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind vier Übungseinheiten entsprechend beidseitig der Standflächen 12 und 13 positioniert. Es sind zwei Trainingsbänke, die mit den Bezugsziffer 26 und 27 versehen sind, dargestellt. Beide Trainingsbänke weisen jeweils eine Beinrolle 28, 29 auf, an der sich die Unterschenkel des Benutzers insbesondere zum Trainieren der Bauchmuskulatur abstützen können.In the illustrated embodiment, four exercise units are positioned on both sides of the standing areas 12 and 13 respectively. Two exercise benches, denoted by the reference numerals 26 and 27, are shown. Both training benches each have a leg roll 28, 29 on which the user's lower legs can be supported, in particular for exercising the abdominal muscles.

Die erfindungsgemäße Greifeinrichtung ist über die Seilzüge 18,19 und die Umlenkrollen 20,21 und 22,23 und die Rollen 24,25 mit den Gewichtsblöcke - Aufnahmevorrichtungen 16 und 17 derart verbunden, dass bei der Betätigung der Greifeinrichtung die Gewichtsblöcke angehoben bzw. abgesenkt werden.The gripping device according to the invention is via the cables 18,19 and the pulleys 20,21 and 22,23 and the rollers 24,25 with the weight blocks - recording devices 16 and 17 connected in such a way that when the gripping device is actuated, the weight blocks are raised or lowered.

Entsprechend dem in der Figur 3 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist an dem Seilzug 18 eine Greifvorrichtung 2 mit zwei Kugeln 3,3a dargestellt, die über eine Anlenkvorrichtung 7 in Form eines Karabinerhakens am Zugseilende 6a des Seilzug 18 befestigt ist. Am Seilzug 19 hingegen ist die Greifvorrichtung nur mit einer Kugel ausgestattet.According to the figure 3 In the exemplary embodiments of the device according to the invention shown, a gripping device 2 with two balls 3, 3a is shown on the cable pull 18, which is attached to the pull cable end 6a of the cable pull 18 via a pivoting device 7 in the form of a snap hook. On the cable 19, however, the gripping device is only equipped with a ball.

Nachfolgend sollen lediglich beispielhaft einige Trainingsabläufe mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung erläutert werden.Some training sequences with the device according to the invention are to be explained below by way of example only.

Um den Unterschied zum Stand der Technik zu verdeutlichen, soll zunächst das Training mir der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung für den Latissimus Dorsi beschrieben werden.In order to clarify the difference from the prior art, the training with the device according to the invention for the latissimus dorsi should first be described.

Während bei herkömmlichen Latissimus-Zugapparaten der Trainierende den Zug unter dem Anheben von massiven Gewichten vor oder hinter seinem Kopf mittels einer starren Zugstange mit konstantem Abstand der Hände zueinander in einer räumlichen Ebene ohne Drehbewegungen durchführen muss, können erfindungsgemäß mehrere Bewegungen, z.B. Zug- und Rotationsbewegungen jetzt gleichzeitig ausgeführt werden. Weiterhin erübrigt sich erfindungsgemäß für den Muskelaufbau das Stemmen von großen Gewichten.While with conventional latissimus traction devices the trainee has to perform the train by lifting massive weights in front of or behind his head using a rigid pull rod with the hands at a constant distance from one another in a spatial plane without rotary movements, several movements, e.g. pulling and rotary movements, can be carried out according to the invention now run simultaneously. Furthermore, according to the invention, there is no need to lift heavy weights for muscle building.

Zum Trainieren des Latissimus positioniert sich der Trainierende zwischen die beiden Seilzüge 18 und 19. Anschließend ergreift der Trainierende die Kugel 3,3a des Seilzugs 18 und die Kugel 3 des Seilzugs 19 oberhalb seines Kopfes. Er nimmt die Kugeln zwischen die Handflächen und Finger, während der Daumen keinerlei Haltefunktion ausübt. Anschließend werden während des Zugs in Richtung Boden gleichzeitig die Handflächen und Arme gedreht. Es findet somit gleichzeitig sowohl eine Zugbewegung als auch eine Rotationsbewegung statt. Sollte der Trainierende geübt sein, könnt er auch noch gleichzeitig die Arme abwinkeln. Der Trainierende hat somit eine Bewegungsmöglichkeit in allen drei räumlichen Richtungen während durch die Griffhaltung der Hand alle Gelenke geschont werden.To train the latissimus, the trainee positions himself between the two cable pulls 18 and 19. The trainee then grasps the ball 3.3a of the cable pull 18 and the ball 3 of the cable pull 19 above his head. He takes the balls between his palms and fingers, while the thumb has no holding function. Then the palms and arms are rotated simultaneously during the pull towards the ground. Thus, both a pulling movement and a rotational movement take place at the same time. If the trainee is experienced, he can also bend his arms at the same time. The trainee thus has the possibility of movement in all three spatial directions while all joints are spared by the grip position of the hand.

Zum Trainieren des Bizeps positioniert sich der Trainierende für den gleichzeitigen Muskelaufbau beider Arme wiederum zwischen die beiden Seilzügen 18 und 19. Der Bizeps besitzt einen langen und einen kurzen Kopf. Wenn der lange Kopf des Bizeps, d.h. der äußere Bizeps, der bis zum Schultergelenk führt, ausgebildet werden soll, wird beispielsweise der verstärkte Abschnitt 5,5a oder die Schnur 4,4a zwischen dem Ringfinger und dem Mittelfinger oder zwischen dem Ringfinger und dem kleinen Finger positioniert.To train the biceps, the trainee positions himself between the two cable pulls 18 and 19 for the simultaneous muscle development of both arms. The biceps has a long and a short head. If the long head of the biceps, ie the outer biceps leading to the shoulder joint, is to be trained, for example, the reinforced section 5.5a or the cord 4.4a is placed between the ring finger and the middle finger or between the ring finger and the little finger positioned.

Wenn der inneren Bizeps ausgebildet werden soll, erfolgt die Positionierung von Abschnitt oder Schnur zwischen Zeige- und Mittelfinger.When inner biceps are to be trained, the section or cord is positioned between the index and middle fingers.

Anschließend werden die Kugel 3,3a locker zwischen den Handflächen und Fingern gehalten, während die Daumen keinerlei Haltefunktion ausüben. Mit zwischen den entsprechenden Fingern gelagertem Abschnitt 5,5a bzw. flexibler Schnur 4,4a und zwischen Handinnenflächen und jeweils vier Fingern locker gehaltener Kugel 3,3a findet dann mit der entsprechenden Zug- und gleichzeitigen Rotationsbewegung mit dem Beugen und Strecken der Arme ein Absenken und Anheben der Gewichtsblöcke von nur wenigen Kilogramm statt.Then the ball 3.3a is held loosely between the palms and fingers, while the thumbs do not perform any holding function. With the section 5.5a or flexible cord 4.4a stored between the corresponding fingers and between the palms of the hands and four fingers loosely held ball 3,3a then with the corresponding pulling and simultaneous rotational movement with the bending and stretching of the arms, a lowering and raising of the weight blocks of only a few kilograms takes place.

Mit einer lockeren Haltung der Hand und ohne Zuhilfenahme des Daumens kann nun das an der Zugeinrichtung eingestellte Gewicht mit der direkten Kraft des äußeren und inneren Bizeps gezogen werden. Der lange Kopf des Bizeps führt hierbei eine Adduktion und Außenrotation aus. Das Training des Bizeps erfolgt ebenfalls nach dem Zug-Rotationsprinzip.With a relaxed hand position and without the help of the thumb, the weight set on the pulling device can now be pulled with the direct force of the outer and inner biceps. The long head of the biceps performs adduction and external rotation. The training of the biceps is also based on the pull-rotation principle.

Zum Trainieren des Trizeps positioniert sich der Trainierende für den gleichzeitigen Muskelaufbau beider Arme wiederum zwischen die beiden Seilzüge 18 und 19 und nimmt entweder eine einzelne oder beide Kugeln 3,3a zwischen die entsprechenden Handflächen und Finger ohne Zuhilfenahme des Daumens, wobei die Handinnenflächen zum Boden gerichtet sind und die Ellenbogen eine stationäre Haltung einnehmen.To train the triceps, the trainee positions himself between the two cable pulls 18 and 19 for the simultaneous muscle development of both arms and takes either one or both balls 3,3a between the corresponding palms and fingers without the help of the thumb, with the palms of the hands facing the floor are and the elbows are in a stationary position.

Der Trizeps besteht aus drei Muskeln, dem lateralen, dem langen und den medialen Kopf. Von allen drei Muskeln verläuft nur einer bis zum Schultergelenk. Mit der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es nun möglich, den Trizeps in seiner Gesamtheit zu trainieren oder auch nur einzelne Muskeln gezielt anzusteuern. Um beispielsweise den äußeren, lateralen Kopf des Trizepss zu trainieren, wird der verstärkte Abschnitt 5, 5a oder die Schnur 4,4a selbst zwischen dem kleinen und dem Ringfinger positioniert.The triceps consists of three muscles, the lateral, long and medial heads. Only one of all three muscles runs to the shoulder joint. With the present invention, it is now possible to train the triceps in its entirety or to control only individual muscles in a targeted manner. For example, to train the outer, lateral head of the triceps, the reinforced portion 5, 5a or cord 4, 4a itself is positioned between the little and ring fingers.

Der Trainierende beginnt dann mit lockerer Handhaltung das eingestellte geringe Gewicht von beispielsweise 5kg am Seilzug 18 und 19 mit der direkten Kraft des Trizeps nach unten und nach außen zu drücken. Somit kann auch der Trizeps ohne Beanspruchung der Hilfsmuskulatur des Handgelenks und des Unterarms gelenksschonend trainiert werden.With a relaxed hand position, the trainee then begins to push the set low weight of, for example, 5 kg on the cable pull 18 and 19 downwards and outwards with the direct power of the triceps. In this way, the triceps can be trained without straining the auxiliary muscles of the wrist and forearm.

Wenn beispielsweise die Schultermuskulatur beidseitig aufgebaut werden soll, wird sich der Trainierende wiederum in der Mitte der Seilzüge 18,19 positionieren, beispielsweise auch sitzend, und der Trainierende wird, wie entsprechend zuvor beschrieben, entweder eine Kugel oder auch zwei Kugeln je Hand verwenden.If, for example, the shoulder muscles are to be built up on both sides, the trainee will position himself in the middle of the cable pulls 18,19, for example also sitting, and the trainee will use either one ball or two balls per hand, as previously described.

Beim Training der Schultermuskulatur mithilfe einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung muss das eingestellte Gewicht an der Zugvorrichtung mit der direkten Kraft der Schultermuskulatur dreidimensional wie beim Rudern gehoben und gezogen werden.When training the shoulder muscles using a device according to the invention, the set weight on the traction device must be lifted and pulled three-dimensionally with the direct force of the shoulder muscles, as with rowing.

Die Brustmuskulatur wird entsprechend ähnlich den zuvor beschriebenen Übungsabläufen trainiert. Der Trainierende nimmt eine Stellung zwischen den Seilzügen 18 und 19 ein und umfasst wiederum eine oder mehrere Kugeln entsprechend den zuvor erläuterten Griff und durch Ziehen und Drücken der Oberarme vor der Brust nach vorne und hinten, bzw. durch Öffnen und Schließen der Arme in entsprechender Höhe wird die Rückenmuskulatur gestärkt.The chest muscles are trained in a similar way to the exercise sequences described above. The trainee assumes a position between the cables 18 and 19 and again grasps one or more balls according to the previously explained grip and by pulling and pushing the upper arms forwards and backwards in front of the chest, or by opening and closing the arms at the appropriate height the back muscles are strengthened.

Das Training für das Trapez erfolgt entsprechend dem für die Brustmuskulatur nur, dass der Trainierende mit dem entsprechenden Griff die Gewichte anzieht und hebt.The training for the trapeze is carried out in the same way as for the chest muscles, only that the trainee pulls and lifts the weights with the appropriate grip.

Beim Training für den Deltamuskel werden erfindungsgemäß alle Finger ähnlich dem "Pinzettengriff" verwendet. Der Deltamuskel besteht aus drei Köpfen, dem vorderen, dem mittleren und dem hinteren Deltamuskel.According to the invention, all fingers are used in a manner similar to the "tweezer grip" when training the deltoid muscle. The deltoid consists of three heads, the anterior, middle and posterior deltoids.

Erfindungsgemäß ist des möglich, den gesamten Deltamuskel zu trainieren oder nur einzelne Köpfe des Muskels gezielt anzusteuern.According to the invention, it is possible to train the entire deltoid muscle or to target only individual heads of the muscle.

Der vordere Deltamuskel wird beispielsweise trainiert, in dem im "Pinzettengriff" die Kugel von unten nach oben gezogen wird. Und zum Training des mittleren Delta Muskels erfolgt der Zug von hinten nach vorne, während beim Training des hinteren Deltamuskels der Zug in diagonaler Richtung erfolgt.The anterior deltoid muscle, for example, is trained by pulling the ball from the bottom up with the "tweezers grip". And for middle deltoid work, the pull is back-to-front, while for rear deltoid work, the pull is diagonal.

Alle diese Übungen sind auch Mithilfe des Sportgerätes möglich.All these exercises are also possible with the help of the sports equipment.

Das Sportgerät ist so konzipiert und beschaffen, dass ein Training der gesamten Muskulatur ohne Zuhilfenahme von feststehenden Zugtrainingsequipment, Zugmaschinen oder Gewichtswiderstandseinrichtungen möglich ist.The piece of sports equipment is designed and constructed in such a way that the entire musculature can be trained without the aid of fixed traction training equipment, traction machines or weight resistance devices.

Es sind zwei Ausführungsformen des Sportgerätes vorgesehen. Entweder ist das Sportgerät mit einem elastischen Zwischenteil versehen ist oder aber die Schnur selbst ist als elastisches Teil ausgebildet ist.Two embodiments of the piece of sports equipment are provided. Either the piece of sports equipment is provided with an elastic intermediate part or the cord itself is designed as an elastic part.

Entsprechend der Figur 4 ist die ersten Ausführungsform dargestellt. Die Kugel 3 ist hierbei an einer flexiblen Schnur 4 angeordnet und an der der Kugel 3 gegenüberliegenden Seite weist die Schnur 4 einen Verbindungsabschnitt 4b zur Befestigung an einem elastisch ausgebildeten Zwischenstück 6c auf, welches selbst ebenfalls an einem Gegenstand, beispielsweise an einer Tür beispielsweise mittels eines Hakens, befestigbar ist.According to the figure 4 the first embodiment is shown. The ball 3 is arranged on a flexible cord 4 and on the side opposite the ball 3, the cord 4 has a connecting section 4b for attachment to an elastically designed intermediate piece 6c, which itself is also attached to an object, for example on a door, for example by means of a hook, can be fastened.

Alternativ kann das Sportgerät auch beispielsweise aus zwei Kugeln bestehen, die an den gegenüberliegenden Enden einer elastischen Schnur angeordnet sind. Entsprechend dieser Ausführungsform kann beispielsweise eine Kugel als Befestigungsmittel dienen, während die am gegenüberliegenden Ende der Schnur angeordnete Kugel in der Hand des Trainierenden als Greifeinrichtung für das Muskeltraining zum Ausüben von beispielsweise Zug- Rotationsbewegungen dient.Alternatively, the sports device can also consist of two balls, for example, which are arranged at the opposite ends of an elastic cord. According to this embodiment, for example, a ball can be used as a fastening means, while the ball arranged at the opposite end of the cord is used in the hand of the person exercising as a gripping device for muscle training, for example for exerting pulling and rotating movements.

Bei der Benutzung des Sportgerätes im Freien kann beispielsweise eine Kugel zwischen zwei Zaunlatten befestigt werden, während die andere Kugel mit der Hand bewegt wird. Ergänzenderweise kann man auch die Mitte des elastischen Bandes wählen und dies um einer feststehende Einrichtung schlingen, um mit beiden Kugeln gleichzeitig zu trainieren.When using the sports equipment outdoors, for example, a ball can be fixed between two fence slats, while the other ball is moved by hand. In addition, you can also choose the middle of the elastic band and wrap it around a fixed device to train with both balls at the same time.

Die vom Trainierenden aufzuwendende Kraft wird durch die Auswahl von entsprechenden Schnüren unterschiedlicher Elastizität bzw. Elastizitätsmodule variiert und gesteuert. Der Trainierende kann also zwischen unterschiedlichen Widerstandsstärken wählen.The force to be exerted by the person exercising is varied and controlled by selecting appropriate cords of different elasticity or elasticity modules. The trainee can therefore choose between different resistance levels.

Somit wird gemäß der Erfindung eine ganz natürliche Bewegung entsprechend den unterschiedlichsten Anatomiebeschaffenheiten der Trainierenden ermöglicht. Die Zug-Rotationsbewegung mit der Kugel garantiert eine gelenkschonende Bewegung wobei, wenn gewünscht, die entsprechende Muskulatur auch isoliert trainiert werden kann. Erfindungsgemäß ist es von besonderer Bedeutung, dass der Trainierende mit den Händen nicht greifen muss. Beim Greifen eines Griffs oder eines elastischen Gummibandes muss eine erhebliche Kraft aufgebracht werden um einen Trainingseffekt zu erzielen. Hierbei wird neben der zu trainierenden Primärmuskulatur immer auch die sekundäre Muskulatur zur Unterstützung hinzugezogen. Entsprechend der Erfindung wird durch die Verwendung der Kugeln als Greifeinrichtung ein Greifen beim Training vermieden, wodurch die Primärmuskulatur isoliert zum Einsatz kommt.Thus, according to the invention, a completely natural movement is made possible in accordance with the most varied anatomy of the person exercising. The pulling-rotational movement with the ball guarantees a movement that is easy on the joints, whereby, if desired, the corresponding muscles can also be trained in isolation. According to the invention, it is of particular importance that the trainee does not have to grip with his hands. When gripping a handle or an elastic rubber band, considerable force must be applied in order to achieve a training effect. In addition to the primary muscles to be trained, the secondary muscles are always used for support. According to the invention, by using the balls as a gripping device, gripping during training is avoided, as a result of which the primary muscles are used in isolation.

Der gewünschte Trainingseffekt wird somit gewährleistet und die Gelenke werden geschont.The desired training effect is thus guaranteed and the joints are protected.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung ist durch die besondere Konzeption, die Beschaffenheit, die Art des Trainings und die Handhabung im Freizeit - Breiten - Leistungssportbereich, sowie im physiotherapeutischen -und Rehabilitationsbereich einsetzbar.The device according to the invention can be used due to the special conception, the nature, the type of training and the handling in the leisure - wide - competitive sports area, as well as in the physiotherapeutic - and rehabilitation area.

Wie schon zuvor ausgeführt, kann erfindungsgemäß die zu trainierende Muskulatur isoliert werden und gelenkschonend behandelt werden.As already explained above, according to the invention the muscles to be trained can be isolated and treated in a way that is easy on the joints.
