Abstract
An exercise assist tool is used together with an exercise tool used in a supine or seated state, and the exercise assist tool includes a body-axis indicator that allows a user to be conscious of a body axis. The body-axis indicator has a longitudinal direction, and is supported such that the longitudinal direction can be disposed along a craniocaudal axis of the user. The body-axis indicator is a rod member supported so as to be disposed along a craniocaudal axis of the user. The body-axis indicator includes a proximal-side indicator provided in front of a face of the user, and a distal-side indicator provided farther from the user than the proximal-side indicator. The proximal-side indicator is configured to be capable of adjusting a distance from the user.
Claims4
An exercise assist tool, configured to be used together with an exercise tool configured to be used in a supine state,
- the exercise assist tool comprising a body-axis indicator that allows a user to be conscious of a body axis,
- wherein the body-axis indicator includes a proximal-side indicator configured to be provided in front of a face of the user, and a distal-side indicator provided farther from the user than the proximal-side indicator,
- wherein at least one of the proximal-side indicator and the distal-side indicator has a longitudinal direction,
- wherein the exercise assist tool further includes a support portion that supports at least one of the proximal-side indicator and the distal-side indicator such that the longitudinal direction of at least one of the proximal-side indicator and the distal-side indicator can be disposed along a craniocaudal axis of the user in the supine state, and
- wherein the proximal-side indicator is configured to be disposed between the face of the user and the distal-side indicator.
A method for using an exercise assist tool together with an exercise tool configured to be used in a supine state,
- the exercise assist tool including a body-axis indicator and a support portion,
- wherein the body-axis indicator includes a proximal-side indicator configured to be provided in front of a face of a user, and a distal-side indicator provided farther from the user than the proximal-side indicator,
- wherein at least one of the proximal-side indicator and the distal-side indicator has a longitudinal direction,
- wherein the support portion is configured to support the body-axis indicator such that the longitudinal direction of at least one of the proximal-side indicator and the distal-side indicator can be disposed along a craniocaudal axis of the user in the supine state,
- wherein the proximal-side indicator is configured to be disposed between the face of the user and the distal-side indicator, and
- the method comprising using the exercise tool in a state where the exercise assist tool is disposed such that the longitudinal direction of at least one of the proximal-side indicator and the distal-side indicator is along the craniocaudal axis of the user.
