Definitions

• the resistance exercise clothing device relates to resistance exercise devices and more especially to an exercise clothing device that provides resistance to substantially most of a wearer's upper and lower limb movements.
• the general purpose of the resistance exercise clothing device is to provide a resistance exercise clothing device which has many novel features that result in an improved resistance exercise clothing device which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by prior art, either alone or in combination thereof.
• the resistance exercise clothing device may provide only a shirt, only a pant, or both.
• Each of the shirt and pant are provided with resistance bands disposed within channels.
• Resistance bands may be permanently installed and may also be removably installed.
• Resistance bands are provided in various elastic resistance strengths.
• Removable bands may be attached at the origins and insertions by various means that may include but are not limited to mechanical fasteners, such as hook and loop, buttons, snaps, and other appropriate means.
• the origins of the shirt resistance bands may be chosen by a user, from lateral to medial attachment to the shirt reinforced panel. This feature enables further resistance properties of the shirt resistance bands by allowing greater or lesser pre- load of the shirt resistance bands.
• the shirt and pant may be comprised of various pliable materials, especially those conducive to exercise and freedom of movement, that are known in the art.
• a user Upon donning the shirt, a user loops the shirt resistance bands around thumbs and hands.
• a user loops pant resistance bands around feet.
• An object of the resistance exercise clothing device is to provide for resistance exercise.
• Another object of the resistance exercise clothing device is to provide for resistance exercise for a wearer's arms and legs through being worn during movement.
• a further object of the resistance exercise clothing device is to be unobtrusive in appearance.
• An added object of the resistance exercise clothing device is to be unobtrusive in use.
• an object of the resistance exercise clothing device is to provide for varied resistance.
• a further object of the resistance exercise clothing device is to be attractive in appearance.
• Another object of the resistance exercise clothing device is to be easily donned.
• a further object of the resistance exercise clothing device is to be easily doffed.
• Figure 1 is a front perspective view of the shirt.
• Figure 2 is a back perspective view of the shirt.
• Figure 3 is a back perspective view of the pant.
• Figure 4 is a front perspective in-use view of the shirt.
• Figure 5 is a lateral perspective view of the device in use.
• the device 10 partially comprises a shirt 20 having a front 21 and a back 22, an open-ended torso 23, and a pair of open- ended long sleeves 24.
• a sleeve channel 25 is disposed medially on each open- ended long sleeve 24 and extended partially onto the open-ended torso 23 back 22.
• Each sleeve channel 25 has a distal end 26 on the open-ended long sleeve 24 and a medial end 27 on the open-ended torso 23 back 22.
• an opening 25A is disposed on each sleeve channel 25 at the distal end 26 and at the medial end 27.
• a shirt reinforced panel 30 is disposed horizontally and partially upwardly on the open-ended torso 23 back 22.
• a shirt resistance band 32 is removably disposed within each sleeve channel 25.
• Each shirt resistance band 32 has an origin 33 at the shirt reinforced panel 30 and an insertion 34 disposed laterally and distally on the open-ended long sleeve 24.
• the device 10 further comprises a pant 40 having an upwardly disposed waist 41.
• the pant 40 further comprises a seat 42A connected to the waist 41 and spaced apart from a pant front 42B connected to the waist and the seat 42A.
• the pant 40 further comprises two spaced apart legs 43 connected to the seat 42A and the pant front 42B.
• a pant reinforced panel 44 is disposed on the pant 40 seat 42A.
• a pant channel 45 is disposed rearwardly on each pant 40 leg 43.
• a pant channel opening 45A is disposed at an each end of each pant channel 45.
• a pant resistance band 46 is removably disposed within each pant channel 4S.
• the shirt resistance bands 32 are configured to resist a plurality of arm movements of a user.
• the pant resistance bands 46 are configured to resist a plurality of leg movements of a user
• the shirt resistance band origins are selectively determined.
• the origins 33 may be disposed as chosen along the shirt reinforced panel 30. Resistance to arm movement can thereby be altered. For example, a greater pre-loading of the shirt resistance bands 32 by establishing the origins 33 more medially results in a greater resistance to arm movement. Additionally, shirt resistance bands 32 are provided in a plurality of varied elastic resistance strengths.
• pant resistance bands 46 are provided in a plurality of varied elastic resistance strengths.
