Abstract
A Torso Exercise Apparatus that stabilizes the pelvic area to enhance effectiveness of upper body and torso motions when exercising with a means of resistance. An anterior pelvic apparatus comprising anterior pelvic pads and a posterior pelvic apparatus comprising posterior pelvic pads can be adjusted to reduce a compression distance therebetween and compress a pelvic area. Additional torso pads can be utilized to stabilize the upper body. The anterior and posterior pelvic apparatuses can be operably engaged with a rail that allows for optimization of a range of motion relative to the means of resistance.
Claims21
A device, configured to stabilize a pelvis, comprising:
- an anterior pelvic assembly;
- and
- a posterior pelvic assembly comprising an operable attachment to the anterior pelvic assembly for adjusting a compression distance therebetween;
- such that, when the anterior pelvic assembly and the posterior pelvic assembly are adjusted, the compression distance therebetween stabilizes the pelvis.
A device, configured to stabilize a pelvis, comprising:
- an anterior pelvic assembly that comprises,
- at least one anterior pelvic pad operably connected to a posterior pelvic assembly to a front post, wherein the front post is supported by a front bracket;
- a posterior pelvic assembly that comprises,
- at least one posterior pelvic pad operably connected to a rear post, wherein the rear post is supported by a rear bracket;
- and
- an adjustable linkage that operably connects the front post to the rear post, such that a compression distance between the anterior pelvic assembly and the posterior pelvic assembly is adjustable with the adjustable linkage.
A device, configured to stabilize a pelvis, comprising:
- an anterior pelvic assembly that comprises,
- at least one anterior pelvic pad operably connected to a front post, wherein the front post is supported by a front bracket;
- and
- a pelvic compression belt comprising at a first end fixedly attached to the at least one anterior pelvic pad and a second end that engages with a tightening mechanism.
