287 results about "Arm swing" patented technology

Arm swing in human bipedal walking is a natural motion wherein each arm swings with the motion of the opposing leg. Swinging arms in an opposing direction with respect to the lower limb reduces the angular momentum of the body, balancing the rotational motion produced during walking.Although such pendulum-like motion of arms is not essential for walking, recent studies point that arm swing ...

Athletic swing training harness

It can be difficult to teach the athlete to coordinate his arms and his body during an athletic swing. The natural tendency is to think of an athletic swing as event that happens with the arms. The thought is that the arms control the hitting device back and forward to swing at the object to be struck. Arms have many moving parts to control and as such it is difficult to pull a hitting device back and then deliver it forward to perform a solid connection with the ball. The body is a stronger and better instrument for delivering a hitting device back and forth. The body can simply turn to bring the device back and then turn back to deliver it to the starting position. In hitting a ball, it is best if the arms do little work. To train the arms and body to be in sync during the hitting motion instruction of the concept is important. Even with this knowledge, the arms and the body may try to remain two independent elements during the athletic swing motion. The Athletic Swing Training Harness easily keeps the arms and body “connected” by having the arms press lightly into the harness's arm pads. Automatically the arms and body are in sync during the swing motion resulting in a more controlled swing. As the body and arms swing back and then forth in unison, the chances of hitting the object to be struck squarely is greatly enhanced. The struck object will fly better to the targeted direction and often fly faster / further because of the torque delivered by a body / arm swing that is “connected”.
