Definitions
- the present invention relates to a garment, particularly a training garment, and more specifically a garment, such as, for example, a coverall-type garment, in which weight is the component that makes training more effective.
- weights are sold in sports stores, the most usual type being belts, which are used, for example, attached to the thighs, wrists, or ankles.
- Another type of weight is a vest-like weight, which is put on around the upper body like a conventional vest.
- the types of weight referred to work well up to a certain limit, in certain types of training routines, but unresolved drawbacks are also associated with their use.
- Training accessories are also known, which cover only a specific small part of the exerciser's body, so that the training effect too is naturally very limited.
- the present invention is intended to create a training means, which when used will effectively assist training, which in all circumstances is protective rather than damaging, and which in practice is a simple and reliable device.
- An additional intention is to create a training means, which the aid of which training will be balanced, both in terms of the location of the weights and in terms of the performance of the training event.
- the intention is to create a training means that can be easily adapted to different practical purposes.
- Figure 1 shows one embodiment of the invention, seen from directly in front
- Figure 2 shows a rear view of the same embodiment
- Figure 3 shows a side view of the said embodiment
- Figure 4 shows a front view of a second embodiment
- Figure 5 shows a rear view of the embodiment of Figure 4.
- Figure 6 shows in turn a side view of the embodiment of Figure 4.
- the figures thus shows a training garment, in this case a coverall-type garment, which is formed of a trouser part 1 , a vest part 3, and an intermediate part 2 connecting them.
- the general construction of the garment according to the invention can be more or less conventional, it has usually an outer fabric and an inner lining in the usual manner. In terms of the materials, a cloth or fabric that is sturdier than usual is to be recommended, in order to ensure durability.
- the basic idea of the invention shown in Figures 1 - 3 is that flexible pieces 4 and 5 of a relatively heavy material are sewn into the trouser part 1 and the vest part 3 of the garment according to the invention. In the case shown, there are two of the said heavy pieces in the trouser part 1 , one at each side.
- a unified piece 5 is preferred, which is, however, divided in front into two separate branches 5' and 5", to facilitate use. As can be seen from Figure 2, which shows the rear side, the rear-side piece 5 is principally unified.
- the intermediate part 2 is principally of the same woven material as the trousers and vest, but the intermediate part does not include parts made of heavy material. It is obvious that the garment must be very flexible in the waist area and that it must permit bending and stooping, which is important in most training exercises.
- a zip fastener 6 with the aid of which the garment can be opened and taken off and put on easily.
- the extent of the zip fastener 6 or similar can be defined to be such that putting the garment on or taking it off is really easy and thus the fastener can also extend to the area of the trousers.
- FIG. 4 - 6 differs from the embodiment of Figures 1 - 3 in that, as the figures clearly show, the arms and legs are now protected and equipped with a weight material.
- the material of the arms is marked with the reference number 8 in the case of the piece of the upper arm and with the reference number 9 in the case of the part from the elbow downwards.
- the part remaining between these pieces, which permits the arm to be bent freely, is marked with the reference number 11.
- Figures 4 - 6 also show what was said about the arms also applies to the legs, i.e. that the training and protective effect is considerable.
- the garment according to the invention can be made in parts.
- the garment according to the invention can be assembled as the required construction, from at least an arm part, a shoulder part, a vest part, a trouser part, a thigh part, and a calf part. It is obvious that use is in no way restricted to a total combination of the parts, but that instead, if only an arm must be exercised in training, this can be done easily by using only an arm part, or a combination of the arm and shoulder parts on the desired arm.
- the invention provides an opportunity for symmetrical or asymmetrical training, using the full arsenal of weights, or using only some of the heavy parts of the garment. It is obvious that many alternatives are available for attaching the parts of the garment to each other in a suitable manner. The first alternative to come to mind is attachment using zip fasteners or Velcro tape. Other alternatives too can be found, from buttons to press-studs.
- the pocket made in the garment can be opened and closed.
- the opening/closing can be done in many ways, for example, by using buttons, Velcro, or zips.
- the advantage in this construction is that the heavy piece 4, 5, 8, 9, 10 can be replaced with another one, for example, a corresponding lighter or heavier piece, according to the desired training effect.
- the material of the heavy piece 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 13 is selected according to the desired criteria. What is essential is that the material must be naturally sufficiently flexible to conform relatively easily to the part of the body that is inside the garment. This will avoid abrading the skin, as the piece does not move and thus will not rub. Another feature of the garment is that it is unnoticed both by the wearer and in its external appearance. The dimensions and conformability of the garment are such that its presence cannot be detected, for example, from the external appearance of an ice-hockey player.
- a third advantageous property of the garment according to the invention is for it to have no components that could endanger the wearer. On the contrary, the garment has a protective effect.
- the heavy material of the garment according to the invention can be, for example, a mat-like rubber or plastic-based material, which is either naturally flexible or which has had its flexibility enhanced by suitable cuts or slits.
- the weight and other properties of the various parts can be different and they need not necessarily even be of the same material.
- the material 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 13 can be as such of a suitable sheet-like, heavy material, but if necessary it can be equipped particularly on the side lying against the body with a suitable surfacing, which can be of cloth or fabric and if necessary can also include a padding material. This will enhance the protective effect of the garment according to the invention.
- a training garment can be created, with the aid of which the exercise load will increase to make the training effective.
- a garment is created, which when worn is more or less unnoticed by both the actual wearer and an external observer. The protective effect of the garment is considerable.
- the garment is suitable for use in practically any training.
- the grade of its material, fabric, or cloth, to which the heavy material is attached is selected to be sufficiently strong to withstand strains.
- the material can have properties that are advantageous in terms of the fit of the garment.
- the material can be of a type that stretches when it is put on, causing the entire garment to sit tightly and essentially without moving on the wearer. This will make it comfortable to use.
