Abstract
A practice device for use with a bat in batting sports to instruct a batter on proper swing technique and form. It is a batter assist power trainer for sports exercise. This relates to an exercise method and apparatus for improving performance in sports that include swinging of a device such as a bat. It is a batter assist power trainer device made of an airtight airfoil structure made of flexible and durable material and a method or way for connecting the structure to a bat so that the batter assist power trainer device permits a batter to power train and to controllably increase hitting strength which allows the batter to achieve longer hits of a ball for baseball and/or softball. Other configurations include structures made with end sections, with reinforcing splines; and a various ways to connect the device to the bat.
Claims4
A batter assist power trainer device used with a bat with an inner and outer surface comprised of:
- (a) an air resistant airfoil structure made of a lightweight, air resistant and flexible material wherein the air resistant airfoil structure is further comprised of a first essentially triangle and a half-moon end section;
- a second essentially triangle and a half-moon end section with an aperture for the bat;
- and an essentially rectangular section interposed and securely connected between the two end sections, and wherein the air resistant airfoil structure is further comprised of at least one reinforcing spline/curvable stiffener;
- (b) a strap with a mechanical means for connecting the air resistant airfoil structure to the bat;
- and
- (c) a removable cross strap connecting the first essentially triangle and the half-moon end section to the second essentially triangle and the half-moon end section
- wherein the batter assist power trainer device permits a batter to power train and to controllably increase hitting strength which allows the batter to achieve longer hits of a ball for baseball and/or softball.
