Abstract
A training system having a support structure, where the support structure includes two or more supports forming a tunnel shape, resulting in two or more openings in the structure. The supports of the support structure also having one or more adjustment mechanisms and skin pieces. The supports, the ground, and a boundary wall defining an inner training area. The inner training area being adjustable in volume.
Claims20
A training-system comprising:
- a support structure, the support structure comprising:
- two or more supports extending from a first point on a first surface to a second point on the first surface, wherein the two or more supports form a tunnel shape having at least two openings;
- and,
- at least one adjustment mechanism coupled to one of the two or more supports;
- one or more skin pieces removably connected to at least one of the two or more supports;
- wherein the two or more supports, the ground plane, and a boundary wall define an inner training area;
- and,
- wherein the at least one adjustment mechanism allows for adjustment of the volume of the inner training area.

1 more element
A method of training comprising the steps of:
- expanding a training device to define a training area;
- placing the training device in a preferred location;
- adjusting the volume of the training area by engaging a plurality of adjustment points of the training device, wherein the adjusting step is based on at least one parameter from the group of:
- the user's height;
- the user's skill;
- and
- the type of training desired;
- and
- selectively adjusting the training device to a desired shape to change a difficulty level associated with the training device.
