Definitions

  • the invention relates to a training device for training individual, specific muscle groups in the upper body, wherein during training a seat is moved relative to an upper body support element against a counterforce acting in at least one direction of movement.
  • targeted training for a single, specific muscle group has proven to be effective. Since targeted training avoids compensation by other muscles, targeted muscle building can be ensured near the joints. Targeted training also has advantages for injured people who cannot train all of their muscles to the same extent.
  • the joints in the body act as pivot points around which other parts of the body, such as bones, are moved by the muscles in a pendulum-like manner.
  • An example of this is the elbow joint, around which the forearm can move like a pendulum.
  • the pelvis can also move in this way around the individual vertebrae of the spine. The pelvis can therefore be moved around one of the vertebrae in a curved path, like a pendulum.
  • the aim of the training is to create the resistances against which the muscles have to work as close to the joint as possible, i.e. to generate resistances close to the pivot point. This trains the muscles that surround and protect the joint.
  • a training device for the core muscles is in the DE 9405749 U1 described.
  • the legs are fixed so that the upper body, which has fallen onto an air-filled ball, can be lifted against its own weight.
  • different muscle groups are used.
  • the disadvantage is that the deep muscles in the hip joint are not specifically addressed here.
  • a training device with which the muscles in the lumbar region can be strengthened is made of WO 2013/064589 A1 and DE 10 2011 085 571 A1
  • This muscle group requires special attention because many people have underdeveloped muscles in this area due to frequent, long periods of sitting, which can lead to great pain.
  • This training device has a frame, a seat with a seat for free sitting without touching the floor, at least one backrest, a fixation device for the pelvis and a fixation device for the hands or arms.
  • the seat with the fixation device for the pelvis can be moved relative to the backrest with the fixation device for the hands and arms.
  • the disadvantage is that the exercise to strengthen the muscles in the lumbar region is often carried out incorrectly by those training with this device, which jeopardizes the success of the training. What is particularly problematic is that muscle groups other than those in the lumbar region are used to move the seat against a certain force. Well-trained, external muscles then compensate for the force that should actually be applied by the deeper muscles. The trainees achieve this in particular by engaging other muscles via lever movements of the legs, and sometimes also the arms.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a training device which makes incorrect exercise execution significantly more difficult and thus forces correct execution of the exercise for training the muscles in the lumbar region, so that the trainees intuitively perform the exercise correctly and the deeper muscles are effectively stimulated.
  • the object is achieved by a training device according to the independent claim.
  • Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.
  • a training device for training individual muscle groups in the upper body which has a support frame and a training unit.
  • the training unit has an upper body support element and a seat.
  • the seat can move along an arc-shaped path relative to the upper body support element in such a way that the pelvis can be moved in a pendulum-like manner against an adjustable counterforce acting in at least one direction of movement when the upper body is resting on the upper body support element.
  • the seat is designed in such a way that only the buttocks area is supported and that no elements for supporting the legs or feet are arranged on the training device.
  • the pelvis When training with the training device, the pelvis performs a pendulum-like movement with the seat.
  • the pelvis moves back and forth on a curved path.
  • the seat can be moved on a curved path.
  • the pelvis therefore performs a swinging movement around a joint, in particular around one of the vertebrae in the upper body.
  • Such a pendulum-like movement corresponds to the natural movement sequence in the body, in which the muscles move other parts of the body around a pivot point. acting joint. This trains the muscles that surround the corresponding joint or vertebra.
  • the upper body is fixed to the upper body support element. This fixation can be achieved by the person exercising pressing the upper body against the upper body support element, whereby the positioning or pressing of the upper body against the upper body support element can be supported by other elements arranged on the training device, such as belts.
  • the seat is preferably movable with the backrest fixed.
  • the counterforce acts primarily in one direction of movement. This means that the person exercising must apply increased force to move the seat in one direction and thus overcome this counterforce.
  • the seat also moves backwards under the influence of the counterforce.
  • the counterforce pushes the seat back, thus supporting the backward movement.
  • the backward movement corresponds to an eccentric movement of the muscles.
  • the backward movement is preferably carried out as a controlled backward movement using the corresponding muscles to be trained.
  • different muscles are required to move the seat with the help of the upper body muscles.
  • the direction of the counterforce can therefore determine whether the muscles to be trained are those in the back, those in the abdominal area or muscles on the sides.
  • the counterforce to be overcome stimulates the corresponding muscles and the intensity of the training can be adjusted depending on the set level of the counterforce.
  • a reduction in the compensation possibilities by other muscles is achieved by the training device according to the invention primarily by eliminating the undesirable support possibilities by the feet and especially by the legs.
  • the person exercising cannot make the exercise easier by lever movements on fixing elements or support options.
  • the training device is designed in such a way that the person exercising cannot support their legs or feet on the floor or on the training device. This advantageously deprives the person exercising of the opportunity to support themselves on the support elements, so that correct execution of the exercise is forced without compensating lever movements.
  • the seat itself is not such a support element for the legs or feet, even if the upper part of the thighs rests on it.
  • the seat is designed in such a way that only the buttocks area is supported and there is no possibility of support for the legs or feet.
  • the buttocks area can also include the upper part of the thighs, i.e. the upper 50% of the thighs or preferably the upper 20% of the thighs or particularly preferably the upper 10% of the thighs.
  • the training device does not provide any possibility of supporting the further part of the thighs.
  • support for the legs or feet also includes any fixation or storage of the legs or feet, in particular the lower part of the legs from the middle of the thighs downwards and the feet.
  • the training device therefore has no elements that rest on the middle and lower part of the thighs, the lower legs, the knees or feet or that fix them in any way.
  • the leg and feet hang freely and the pelvis is held on the seat primarily by a certain amount of friction between the seat and the buttocks. Increased muscle use may be necessary for correct seating.
  • the pelvis is only in contact with the seat through the ischial tuberosities (tuber ischiadicum), so that the seat can be moved by a pendulum movement of the pelvis around a vertebra in the upper body in such a way that the seat is moved in an arc-shaped path.
  • the lack of support options for the legs or feet means that those exercising are prevented from supporting themselves, for example, using fixing elements that engage with the lower legs in such a way that the thigh muscles or the outer hip muscles take over the force to move the seat, thus relieving the deeper muscles near the vertebrae that are actually being trained.
  • the thigh or hip muscles cannot be used to move the pelvis and thus the seat when the upper body is stationary. Compensation by the hip and thigh muscles is thus avoided.
  • the pelvis Due to the lack of fixing elements on the legs to fix the pelvis, the pelvis is only fixed by the seat itself. In order to fix the pelvis on the seat, a special design of the seat itself is required. The fixation of the pelvis on the seat preferably results from the friction between the seat and the person exercising.
  • the seat is designed in the form of a saddle, for example in the form of a bicycle saddle.
  • Another variant provides for the fixation of the pelvis by the person exercising sinking into the soft surface of the seat in such a way that there is sufficient friction to keep the buttocks and thus the pelvis on the
  • the seat is designed to be secured in place.
  • the weight exerted by the person exercising prevents the seat from slipping.
  • the seat has a flat top.
  • the seat has no side panels or other securing elements.
  • the seat preferably has a foam that is covered with a cover.
  • the friction between the seat and the person exercising is determined by the hardness of the foam and the choice of material, such as leather or imitation leather or fabric, for the cover.
  • the surface of the seat preferably has sufficient roughness.
  • the seat has a rectangular shape with a length in the direction of sitting.
  • the length is less than 30 cm or 25 cm or 20 cm.
  • the seat is then only designed as a contact surface. It does not provide any support for the legs, nor for the upper part of the thighs, which creates a compulsion to carry out the exercises correctly.
  • the short seat therefore reduces the possibility of using the legs to support oneself in a lever-like manner and then using the hip muscles to relieve the muscles in the upper body area that are actually being trained.
  • the length of the seat is arranged in the direction of sitting, so during training the length is parallel to the ventral and dorsal main direction of the person exercising.
  • the counterforce to be overcome during training is preferably adjusted by varying the incline of the entire training unit and thus the direction of movement of the seat relative to the floor.
  • the incline of the training unit also adjusts the incline of the direction of movement of the seat element. Since the seat moves on an arc-shaped path, the incline of the path is also changed, i.e. the path is tilted.
  • the direction of movement of the seat element is also adjusted, which determines the angle to the horizontal.
  • a change in the direction of movement always influences the proportion of the weight on the seat element, which means that the training intensity of the exercise can be adjusted effectively and easily.
  • the training unit is preferably mounted so that it can be tilted around an inclination axis relative to the support frame in such a way that the inclination of the training unit relative to the floor can be varied and fixed in different positions.
  • the training device has a manually operated or driven gear, which is arranged between the training unit and the support frame.
  • the gear is used to adjust the inclination of the training unit.
  • the gear can be designed as a worm gear, in particular as a self-locking or self-inhibiting worm gear.
  • a further component is arranged on the worm gear, which causes the self-locking effect.
  • an inclination or tilting of the training unit about an inclination axis is realized in such a way that the direction of movement of the seat runs in a plane which is arranged perpendicular to the inclination axis of the training device.
  • the training unit is preferably arranged so that it can be adjusted relative to the support frame.
  • the counterforce can also be achieved by using additional weights or by using a rubber band or a cable pull system.
  • the training device is preferably designed in such a way that the distance between the seat in the resting position and the upper body support element can be adjusted and fixed at different distances.
  • the seat is connected to the upper body support element via a joint, which is preferably designed as a swivel joint, and the distance between the seat and the joint is variably adjustable and fixable.
  • the height of the joint in relation to the body of the person exercising allows the exercise to be initiated in different muscle groups.
  • the area that is arranged at the height of the joint around which the seat moves in an arc-shaped path is always particularly stimulated and stressed. If the joint is arranged at the height of a lumbar vertebra, for example, the muscles around this lumbar vertebra are particularly strengthened by the training.
  • the pelvis then performs a pendulum-like movement around the corresponding lumbar vertebra.
  • the muscle segment to be trained is varied and specifically stressed.
  • the seat is preferably coupled to the joint via telescopic elements.
  • telescopic elements are understood to be extendable, interlocking tube-like elements or elements in the form of a hollow profile.
  • Other coupling elements are also possible, which can be adjusted in length. The relevant factor here is the change in the distance between the swivel joint and the seat element.
  • the distance between the upper body support element and the joint can also be adjusted and fixed in different positions.
  • the training device has a shelf or fixing elements for the arms or hands.
  • the fixing elements are particularly preferably designed as handles.
  • the trainees can also hold on to the backrest, but handles arranged in front of the backrest in particular, i.e. those that are easy to reach for the arms and hands when the upper body is resting on it, enable the upper body to be fixed comfortably.
  • An alternative way of fixing the upper body is with straps that connect the upper body to the upper body support element.
  • the training device is designed in such a way that the movement of the seat takes place on an arc-shaped path.
  • the arc-shaped path can be described as an nth order polygon, i.e. it can be designed as any curved path.
  • One possible embodiment is an elliptical path.
  • the movement of the seat preferably takes place on a circular path.
  • the seat is connected to the upper body support element via a joint designed as a swivel joint.

  • the upper body support element is designed as a backrest or as a side rest or as a rest for the front area of the upper body.
  • the Upper body support element designed as a support element for the upper torso, in particular for the shoulder chest area.
  • the upper body support element can also be designed as a backrest to support the lower torso, in particular the lumbar region. The choice of which area of the upper body the trainee supports himself with, in conjunction with the direction of the counterforce, determines the muscle to be trained.
  • the lower abdominal muscles i.e. the external oblique abdominal muscles (musculus obliquus externus) as well as the internal oblique abdominal muscles (musculus obliquus internus) and the straight abdominal muscles (musculus rectus abdominis) are stimulated and trained.
  • the hip flexors which are also known as hip benders, can advantageously not take on a compensatory role.
  • the deep back muscles in particular the multifidus muscle, are trained.
  • the hip extensors which are also known as hip extensors, cannot act in a compensatory manner. The trainee is therefore deprived of the opportunity to simplify the exercise by having the hip extensors relieve the deep back muscles that are actually supposed to be trained. The trainee is forced to stimulate the deep back muscles, which makes training the deep back muscles significantly more effective.

  • the upper body support element 4 is designed in this embodiment as a backrest 4 with a curvature 4A in the lower area.
  • the seat 5 is designed here as a contact surface with a short length 5L in the direction of the seat. Such a narrow seat 5 only offers a support surface for the buttocks of the person exercising, while the thighs are not supported.
