Description

  The present invention relates to a training tool and a training method using the training tool.

  For those who use only a part of the body muscles, such as standing work and desk work, and hardly using other parts, stiff shoulders, stiff neck, back pain, etc. are troublesome. Various measures such as a massage machine (for example, Patent Document 1) for massaging the part to improve the blood circulation of the part where the symptom is appearing are known as measures for relieving the stiff shoulder. .

JP 2011-172642 A

  However, when a massage is performed using a massage machine as described in Patent Document 1, there is a certain effect immediately after that, but symptoms reappear when returning to normal life. This is because symptoms such as stiff shoulders are caused by the fact that the posture of the whole body deviates from the ideal state, so that the posture is not corrected even by simply performing a massage. As a result, after massage, the symptom appears again due to the posture deviating from the ideal state.

  In addition, even when training is performed in a posture deviating from the ideal state, the overstressed state of the muscle has not been eliminated, so the switching between the tensioned state and the relaxed state is not smooth. Therefore, in order to obtain the effect of training, it is necessary to perform training after creating an ideal state.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and aims to provide a training tool and a training method using the training tool.

The training method of the present invention includes a band winding step of winding the training band in the order of the front surface, the outer surface, the back surface, and the inner surface so as to release the tension state with respect to the upper arm muscle in which the tension state has become normal. A gripping step of grasping the tool with a hand, and an operation step of moving a hand or an arm while holding the training tool, wherein the gripping step and the operation step are performed while the training band is wound. In the gripping step, the first finger is applied to the surface of the first finger formed on the training device, and the second finger is applied to the surface of the second finger formed on the training device. the Ategai, muscles for moving the muscles and the second finger to move the first finger in the gripping step is relaxed state, the dynamic Muscles for moving the muscles and the second finger to move the first finger in the step is characterized in that the switched relaxed and tensioned state.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  First, the first training tool will be described.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the training tool 10 is formed in a columnar shape, and includes an arm contact portion 10 </ b> A that makes contact with the arm AM and a body contact portion 10 </ b> B that makes contact with the body BD. And a connecting portion 10C that connects the arm contacting portion 10A and the trunk contacting portion 10B. The arm contact portion 10 </ b> A and the torso contact portion 10 </ b> B are respectively located on the peripheral surface portion of the columnar training tool 10. Further, in order to increase the contact area between the training tool 10 and the arm AM, the cross section of the arm contact portion 10A is preferably arcuate. Similarly, in order to increase the contact area between the training tool 10 and the body BD, the cross section of the body contact portion 10B is preferably arcuate. The cross section here passes through the center of the training tool 10.

  The material for forming the training tool 10 (for example, the connecting portion 10C) may be rubber, synthetic resin, metal, wood, or the like as long as it has rigidity.

  Next, a method for using the training tool 10 will be described. As shown in FIG. 2, the training tool 10 is sandwiched between the arm AM and the torso BD. As a result, the torso contact portion 10B of the training tool 10 contacts the torso BD, and the arm contact portion 10A contacts the arm AM. Hereinafter, the portion of the arm AM that contacts the arm contact portion 10A is a contacted portion A1, the base end side is more proximal than the contacted portion A1, and the distal end side is more than the contacted portion A1. These will be referred to as the tip portions A3.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the arm AM is moved toward the torso BD by an external force or an internal force in a state in which the torso abutting part 10 </ b> B is in contact with the torso BD and the arm abutting part 10 </ b> A is in contact with the arm AM. When moving the arm AM toward the torso BD, the arm AM is not bent or stretched. As a result, a force point is set at the distal end portion A3 and the abutted portion A1 serves as a fulcrum, so that the shoulder portion SH serves as an action point. In this manner, when the arm AM is moved toward the torso BD in a state where the training tool 10 is sandwiched between the arm AM and the torso BD (hereinafter referred to as a sandwiched state), the muscles of the shoulder SH are moved according to the lever principle. Can be stretched.

  In the above embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4A, the cylinder contact portion 10B is in contact with the side portion B1 of the cylinder BD in the sandwiched state, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the cylinder contact portion 10B is The body BD may be in contact with the oblique front portion B2 (see FIG. 4B), or the body contact portion 10B may be in contact with the oblique rear portion B3 of the body BD (see FIG. 4C). ) Etc. In this manner, in the pinched state, the arm AM is brought close to the torso BD while contacting the training tool 10 not only with the side B1 but also with the front oblique part B2 and the oblique rear part B3, so that the stretch can be performed over a wide range of the shoulder part SH. It can be performed.

  Further, in the above embodiment, in the pinched state (see FIG. 3), the arm AM is brought close to the trunk BD with the palm PL facing forward, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the arm AM may be brought closer to the torso BD while the palm PL is directed toward the torso BD or the palm PL is directed rearward. As described above, by moving the arm AM in various states in which the direction of the palm PL is different, stretching can be performed in a wide range of the shoulder SH. In addition, it is preferable that the training tool 10 further includes a storage space that can store a high-temperature object such as hot water, and a plug that closes the storage space. Stretching can be performed more reliably by performing stretching using the training tool 10 containing a high-temperature object.

  The setting position of the arm contact portion 10A is not particularly limited, but it is better to avoid the inside of the elbow portion from the viewpoint of avoiding bending and stretching of the arm AM. This is because even if the arm AM is brought closer to the torso BD with the fulcrum set inside the elbow, the elbow is bent and the action point cannot be set on the shoulder SH. This is because stretching cannot be performed sufficiently.

  In the training tool 10 in the above embodiment, the arm contact portion 10A, the trunk contact portion 10B, and the connecting portion 10C are integrally formed with each other, but the present invention is not limited to this. The training tool 10 may be formed by connecting the arm contact part 10A, the body contact part 10B, and the connection part 10C, which are formed separately, to each other.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the training tool 10 was pinched | interposed using trunk | drum BD and arm AM, this invention is not restricted to this, You may pinch the training tool 10 in another site | part. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the training tool 10 may be sandwiched using a neck and a shoulder. The side portion WK can be stretched by pressing the arm against the neck. On the other hand, the neck portion NK can be stretched by pulling the head to the left using the hand (the left hand in FIG. 5).

  The training tool 10 is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and may be a columnar body such as an elliptical columnar shape, a spherical body, a tubular body, or the like.

  Next, the second training tool will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the training tool 20 is formed in a columnar shape. When the hand holding the writing tool P is defined as a holding state (see FIG. 7), the training tool 20 is separated from the writing tool P in the holding state. Held by a finger (for example, ring finger FD or little finger FE, hereinafter referred to as a separation finger) (see FIG. 8A). Note that a finger that touches the writing instrument P in the holding state is defined as a contact finger (for example, thumb FA, index finger FB, middle finger FC).

The training tool 20 includes a ring finger-addressed area 20AD (see FIG. 6) to which the ring finger FD is addressed in the holding state (see FIG. 8A) and a pinky-addressed area 20AE (see FIG. 8A) to which the pinky finger FE is addressed in the holding state (see FIG. 8A). 6). The ring finger address area 20AD and the little finger address area 20AE are set on the peripheral surface of the training tool 20, respectively. The ring finger address area 20AD and the little finger address area 20AE are collectively referred to as the distance finger addressed area. Here, the _{R AD} radius of the portion forming a ring finger addressed areas 20AD of training equipment 20, and _{R AE} radius of the part forming the little finger addressed areas 20AE of the training equipment 20, defining respectively the radius _{R AD} Is preferably such an amount that the muscle of the arm for moving the ring finger FD becomes in tension when the ring finger FD is directed to the ring finger 20A. Similarly, the radius R _AE is when the little finger FE wanted addressed to the little finger addressed area 20ae, it is preferable that the amount of muscle is in tension arm for moving the little finger FE. The radius R _AD is preferably larger than the radius R _AE . As a result, the training tool 20 can be easily held, and the force applied to the ring finger FD and the little finger FE is not easily biased.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the training tool 20 has a protrusion 21 on its peripheral surface. The protrusion 21 may have any form as long as it engages the side of the ring finger 20FD or the little finger 20FE. For example, the boundary protrusion 21C provided at the boundary between the ring finger address area 20AD and the little finger address area 20AE The ring finger side protrusion 21D provided at the end of the ring finger address area 20AD, the little finger side protrusion 21E provided at the edge of the pink finger address area 20AE, and the like.

  It is preferable that the remote finger addressed areas (the ring finger addressed area 20AD and the little finger addressed area 20AE) of the training tool 20 are formed smoothly. For example, the surface of the area addressed to the distance finger may be processed smoothly, and at least a portion of the training tool 20 that forms the area addressed to the distance finger is formed of a material that is slippery (such as silicone resin). Also good. Accordingly, when the training tool 20 is used, a smooth feel can be given to the ring finger 20FD and the little finger 20FE, so that a relaxing effect can be given. Moreover, it is preferable that the training tool 20 contains a substance that emits far infrared rays, such as germanium. According to such a training tool 20, since the heat retaining action is obtained, the above-described relaxing action becomes larger. Furthermore, in order to provide a massage effect, the area for the separation finger of the training tool 20 (area 20AD for the ring finger and area 20AE for the little finger) may be provided with a protrusion for massage.

  In the holding state (see FIG. 8A), it is preferable that one end side (the little finger addressed area 20AE side) of the training tool 20 protrudes from the palm PL. And it is preferable that the contact member 22 is provided in the one end side (the little finger address area 20AE side) of the training tool 20. FIG. Moreover, it is preferable that the front-end | tip of the contact member 22 is smooth. For example, the surface of the front end of the contact member 22 may be processed smoothly, or the front end portion of the contact member 22 may be formed of a slippery material (silicone resin or the like).

  Next, a method for using the training tool 20 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 8A, in the holding state, the thumb FA, the index finger FB, and the middle finger FC are separated from the training tool 20 and hold the writing tool P. On the other hand, in the holding state, the ring finger FD and the little finger FE are separated from the writing instrument P and hold the training tool 20. As shown in FIG. 6, the training tool 20 is provided with a protrusion 21 at a predetermined position. Therefore, when the protrusion 21 and the side of the separation finger are engaged, a grip with a separation finger (ringing finger or little finger) is provided. Is certain. As a result, the training tool 20 can be held with a relatively small force.

  Here, in the conventional holding state (see FIG. 7), the force is applied only to the contact finger (thumb, forefinger, middle finger) that directly touches the writing instrument P, while the force is applied to the remote finger (ringing finger or little finger) that is away from the writing instrument P. Does not enter or hardly enters. That is, in the conventional holding state (see FIG. 7), the muscle for moving the contact finger is in a tension state, and the muscle for moving the separation finger is in a relaxed state. When such a state continues for a long time, the muscles for moving the contact finger (not only the hand but also the muscles of the arms and shoulders) are overstressed. Such an overtension state causes stiff shoulders.

  On the other hand, when the training tool 20 is used, the writing tool P and the training tool 20 are held at the same time, so that both the muscle for moving the contact finger and the muscle for moving the separation finger are in tension. It becomes. The degree of tension of the muscle that moves the contact finger is smaller when both the contact finger and the muscle for moving the separation finger are in tension than the conventional holding state (see FIG. 7). Therefore, by using the training tool 20, the muscles that move each finger (not only the hand but also the arm and shoulder muscles) are less likely to be overstrained, and as a result, stiff shoulders can be suppressed.

  In the holding state (see FIG. 8A), one end side (the little finger addressed area 20AE side) of the training tool 20 protrudes from the palm PL, so that the writing object PP (paper or the like) or the writing object is placed thereon. Abuts against a mounting member (desk or the like). As a result, at the time of writing, the writing instrument can be stably held without applying excessive force to the arm or shoulder. In this way, as a result of eliminating the force beyond the force for holding the writing instrument P, that is, excessive muscle tension, it is possible to suppress stiff shoulders. In the holding state (see FIG. 8A), it is preferable that the tip of the ring finger FD and the tip of the little finger FE are aligned.

  Further, when muscle strength training is performed on a portion where an overstressed state remains, the load due to the training is applied only to the muscle in the overstressed state, and is not easily applied to the muscle that is not in the overtensioned state. That is, even if the strength training is performed in a state in which the over-tension state remains, the effect of the strength training is limited as a result of the smooth switching between the muscle tension state and the relaxed state of the entire region cannot be performed. . On the other hand, according to the present invention, the over-tensioned state can be eliminated, so that the muscle can be smoothly switched between the tensioned state and the relaxed state in the entire region. For this reason, if the present invention is performed prior to the strength training, the original effect of the strength training can be brought out.

  As shown in FIG. 6, on the end side of the training tool 20 (when the contact member 22 is provided on the little finger area 20AE side, on the opposite ring finger address area 20AD side) of the writing instrument P An insertion hole 20X into which the tip can be inserted may be formed. The training tool 20 having the insertion hole 20X can be used as a cap for the writing instrument P when stored.

  In the above embodiment, the columnar training tool 20 is used, but the present invention is not limited to this, and may be a columnar body such as an elliptical columnar shape, a spherical body, a tubular body, or the like.

  By the way, as shown in FIG. 8B, as a result of the thumb FA protruding so as to approach the index finger FB, the correct holding state may be lost. In consideration of such a case, the training tool 20 may further include an engagement protrusion 25 on the other end side (the ring finger-addressed area 20AD side) of the training tool 20 (see FIG. 9A). The engaging protrusion 25 engages with the middle finger FC and the palm PL in the holding state (see FIG. 8A). Since the engaging protrusion 25 engages with the palm PL, the thumb FA does not protrude so as to approach the index finger FB (see FIG. 8B), and as a result, a correct holding state can be easily maintained. In the holding state, it is preferable that the engagement protrusion 25 is separated from the writing instrument P. According to the training tool 20 having such an engagement protrusion 25, since the engagement between the writing instrument P and the hand becomes more reliable in the holding state, it is not necessary to apply an extra force to each finger. In addition, it is preferable that the engagement protrusion 25 is smooth. For example, the surface of the engagement protrusion 25 may be processed smoothly, or the engagement protrusion 25 may be formed of a material (silicone resin or the like) that is slippery. The insertion hole 20X (see FIG. 6) formed in the training tool 20 is preferably opened at the engagement protrusion 25.

  As shown in FIG. 9A, it is preferable that the training tool 20 further includes a ring finger engaging portion 27D that can be engaged with the ring finger FD and a pinky finger engaging portion 27E that can be engaged with the pinky FE. . The ring finger engagement portion 27D is formed in an arch shape from one end side to the other end side of the ring finger address area 20AD, and the little finger engagement portion 27E is also formed in an arch shape from one end side to the other end side of the pink finger address area 20AE. . For this reason, a hole XD into which the ring finger FD can be inserted and a hole XE into which the little finger FE can be inserted are formed in the training tool 20. The formation of the ring finger engaging portion 27D and the little finger engaging portion 27E allows the training tool 20 to be prevented from falling out of the hand even when retracted from the holding state (see FIG. 8A). In addition, the training tool 20 can be used.

  In the above embodiment, the ring finger engaging portion 27D and the pinky finger engaging portion 27E are formed in an arch shape that is continuous from one end side to the other end side of the ring finger addressed area 20AD or the like. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The middle part of the shape may be cut off.

  One of the ring finger engaging portion 27D and the little finger engaging portion 27E may be provided and the other may be omitted.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 9B, the boundary ridges 21C to 21E may be omitted. Further, the engagement protrusion 25 and the contact member 22 may be omitted.

  Next, the third training tool will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 10A, the training tool 30 includes a turning member 31 that can turn around an axis AX, and a grip 32 formed on the turning member 31. Here, the axis AX is preferably set so as to extend from the index finger FB side to the little finger FE side.

  The rotating member 31 has a cylindrical shape, and is rotatable about a shaft 33 disposed on the axis AX. The grip 32 includes a finger area (index finger area 31AB, middle finger area 31AC, ring finger area 31AD, little finger area 31AE) set on the peripheral surface of the rotating member 31, and a protrusion 31T provided on the peripheral surface of the rotating member 31. And have. The protrusion 31T is for engaging with the side portion of the finger, and is provided on the peripheral surface of the rotating member 31 so as to form an index finger area 31AB, a middle finger area 31AC, a ring finger area 31AD, and a little finger area 31AE. It is preferable. Furthermore, it is preferable that the protrusion 31T extends in the circumferential direction.

  The training tool 30 preferably includes an operation unit 35 formed on the rotating member 31. Thereby, the rotation member 31 can be rotated by an external force.

  Next, a method for using the training tool 30 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 10B, the index finger area 31AB, the middle finger area 31AC, the ring finger area 31AD, and the little finger area 31AE are respectively directed to the index finger FB, the middle finger FC, the ring finger FD, and the little finger FE to hold the rotating member 31. (Hereinafter referred to as a grip state). Next, by the operation of the operation unit 35, the rotation member 31 is rotated in the direction (R direction in the drawing) from the proximal end portion of the finger toward the distal end portion with the axis line AX as the center in the grip state. In the grip state, the base end portion to the tip end portion of each finger has an arc shape centered on the axis AX. For this reason, each finger is uniformly extended toward the front-end | tip part by rotation of the rotation member 31 to the R direction. In particular, stretching of the little finger or ring finger is difficult to perform compared to the normal index finger FB and middle finger FC, but by using the training tool 30, the same stretch as the index finger FB and middle finger FC can be performed simultaneously. In the grip state, it is preferable that the muscles for moving each finger are in a relaxed state.

  Note that the shaft 33 may be omitted if the rotating member 31 is rotatable about the axis AX.

  In the case where it is desired to preferentially stretch the little finger FE or the ring finger FD, (1) the friction coefficient of the ring finger area 31AD or the little finger area 31AE is made larger than the friction coefficient of the index finger area 31AB or the middle finger area 31AC. Alternatively, (2) the diameter of the grip 32 may be increased from the index finger area 31AB side toward the little finger area 31AE side, or a combination thereof. As a method of making a difference in the coefficient of friction, (1A) the index finger area 31AB and the middle finger area 31AC are smoothly formed, while the protrusion that can come into contact with the ring of the ring finger FD and the little finger FE is used as the ring finger area 31AD and the little finger area 31AE. (1B) The index finger area 31AB and the middle finger area 31AC, and the ring finger area 31AD and the little finger area 31AE may be formed of different materials or a combination thereof.

  Furthermore, the training device 30 is provided on the wristband 38, a bearing 36 that rotatably holds the shaft 33, an L-shaped arm 37 that holds the bearing 36, a wristband 38 that is detachable from the wrist, and an L-shaped arm. And an arm holding structure 39 for holding the arm 37 (see FIG. 11). Thereby, the axis AX of the rotation member 31 can be fixed. Then, by rotating the rotation member 31 about the fixed rotation axis AX, it is possible to reliably perform equal stretching on each finger.

  Next, the fourth training tool will be described.

  The training tool 40 shown in FIG. 12 is grasped by a hand and is formed in an oblong shape. The training tool 40 includes a thumb-addressed surface 40AA to which the thumb FA is addressed, an index finger-addressed surface 40AB to which the index finger FB is addressed, a middle finger-addressed surface 40AC to which the middle finger FC is addressed, and a ring finger-addressed surface to which the ring finger FD is addressed. 40AD, a little finger-addressed surface 40AE to which the little finger FE is addressed, and a palm-addressed surface 40AP to which the palm AP is addressed. Each of the surfaces 40AA to 40AE and 40AP to which the fingers FA to FE are addressed has a predetermined radius of curvature. When the training tool 40 is gripped by hand, the tips of the fingers FB to FE are preferably aligned so as to be in a straight line. Moreover, it is preferable that the straight line L1 which connects the front-end | tip part of each finger FB-FE is orthogonal to the longitudinal direction (direction of the straight line L2 in a figure) of each finger FB-FE. Further, the longitudinal direction of the thumb FA (the direction of the straight line L3 in the drawing) is preferably orthogonal to the straight line L2.

  Since the curvature radii of the surfaces 40AA to 40AE and 40AP are predetermined, the muscles for moving the fingers FA to FE in the hand in the state of grasping the training tool 40 are all free from the overstressed state. Is done. That is, when the hand holds the training tool 40, the muscles of the fingers FA to FE are smoothly switched between the tensioned state and the relaxed state. Therefore, in the state where the hand grasps the training tool 40, the original effect of training on the muscle can be brought out by moving the hand or its arm. For example, walking or running may be performed while holding the training tool 40 by hand. Alternatively, a predetermined training may be performed by immersing the hand holding the training tool 40 in hot water.

  The training tool 40 may be formed as a handheld part of a portable information terminal, a suspension ring, a bag, an umbrella, or a vehicle handle, or may be formed as a portable information terminal, a suspension ring, a bag, an umbrella, or a vehicle. It may be detachable with respect to a grip portion such as a handle.

  The training tool 40 may be formed with an insertion hole 40X into which the tip of the writing instrument can be inserted.

  In the above embodiment, the training tool is formed in an oval shape, but the present invention is not limited to this.

  The training tool 50 shown in FIG. 13 is formed in an oblate shape. The training tool 50 has respective surfaces 50AA to 50AE to which the fingers FA to FE are addressed, and a palm-addressed surface 50AP to which the palm AP is addressed. Each of the surfaces 50AA to 50AE and 50AP has a predetermined radius of curvature.

  Since the curvature radii of the respective surfaces 50AA to 50AE and 50AP are predetermined, in the state where the hand grasps the training tool 50, the muscles for moving the fingers FA to FE are eliminated from the overstrained state. . That is, when the hand holds the training tool 50, the muscles of the fingers FA to FE are smoothly switched between the tensioned state and the relaxed state. Therefore, by moving the hand or the arm in a state where the hand holds the training tool 50, the original effect of the training on the muscle can be extracted. For example, the training tool 50 may be attached to the hands of a piano player or an operator who operates a keyboard of a personal computer.

  As shown in FIG. 13C, the training tool 50 may have a shape obtained by cutting an oblate object in half on a plane passing through the axis. Further, the training tool 50 may be provided with a locking band 51 that can lock a hand in a state where the training tool 50 is gripped. As the locking band 51, a training band described later can be used.

  In addition, the training tool 40 and the training tool 50 have shapes in which the muscles for moving the fingers FA to FE are curved so that the over-tensioned state is released and the relaxed state is obtained when the hand grips the training tool 50. If it is. Moreover, it is preferable that the curved surface, in particular, each surface to which each finger FA to FE is addressed is smoothly connected. Moreover, it is preferable that the curvature radius of each surface where each finger FA-FE is addressed changes continuously. Thereby, when grasping a training tool, the curvature radius of each surface where each finger FA-FE is addressed can be made into a desired magnitude according to how to put the finger. Therefore, a common training tool can be used even among people with different hand sizes and finger lengths and shapes. For example, the shape of the training tool 40 or the training tool 50 includes an oval shape, a spherical shape, and the like in addition to the shapes described above.

  As a forming material of the training tool 40 or the training tool 50, a material having good sliding property (silicone resin or the like), a substance that radiates far infrared rays (germanium or the like), a substance that easily deforms (foamed substance), or the like is appropriately selected according to the use. You can choose.

  In the said embodiment, although the 1st-4th training tool was used independently, you may combine these. Further, the fifth training tool may be used in combination with the first to fourth training tools. Among them, the combination of the first training tool and the second training tool, the combined use of the fifth training tool in addition to the first and second training tools, and the fourth training tool and the fifth training tool. Use in combination is preferred.

  Next, a training band as a fifth training tool will be described.

  FIG. 14 shows an upper arm band 111 and a forearm band 112 as an example of a fifth training tool. The upper arm band 111 is wound outward by the upper arm 121, and the forearm band 112 is wound inward by the forearm 122. Here, “winding outward” means that the wound band is wound in the order of the front surface, the outer surface, the back surface, and the inner surface. “Wound inward” means that the wound band is wound in the order of the front surface, the inner surface, the back surface, and the outer surface.

  In the upper arm 121, the upper arm band 111 is wound outwardly from the elbow toward the shoulder (see FIG. 15), and is then wound outwardly from the shoulder toward the elbow (see FIG. 16). Further, thereafter, the upper arm band 111 is wound outwardly from the elbow to the shoulder (see FIG. 17).

  In the forearm 122, the forearm band 112 is wound inwardly from the elbow to the hand (see FIG. 18) and then wound inwardly from the hand to the elbow (see FIG. 19). Further, thereafter, the forearm band 112 is wound inwardly from the elbow toward the hand (see FIG. 20).

  Next, a training method using the upper arm band 111 and the forearm band 112 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 14, an upper arm band 111 is wound around the upper arm 121 with an outer winding, and a forearm band 112 is wound around the forearm 122 with an inner winding. In this way, the standing posture is maintained for a certain time (for example, 5 to 10 minutes) while the training band is wound around each part. Here, the standing posture is a posture in which the lower part from the neck supports the head, the posture where the whole body is standing, the posture where the upper body is raised (for example, the posture sitting on the ground, the posture sitting on the chair) )

  Next, the operation of the training band will be described.

  Regardless of standing or sitting, the whole body always tries to maintain its own balance by the sense of position. If the posture with the whole body balanced is ideal, the muscles of each part will support the head almost equally.

  However, due to daily activity patterns, the standing posture may deviate from the ideal one. For example, when the head is displaced forward from the ideal position, the muscles in the region below the head maintain the balance of the whole body and try to support the head. Then, the load applied to the muscle becomes larger than that in an ideal posture. If a part of muscles (for example, shoulders or arms) tries to support the increased load, the part of muscles is in a tension state. Examples of shoulder muscles that become tensioned in this way include trapezius, deltoid muscles, scapula, supraspinatus, and gluteal muscles. There is the outer head of the head muscle and the extensor carpi radialis longus muscle.

  If the tension state of the partial muscle is continued, the tension state of the partial muscle becomes normal, and it becomes difficult to relax the partial muscle. Thus, when it becomes difficult to relax the muscles, the symptoms of stiffness appear.

  Here, the part of the muscles whose tension state has become normal cannot spontaneously transition to the ideal state. Of course, moving other muscles while the tension state of the part of the muscles is in a normal state has a certain effect for eliminating the stiffness, but a sufficient effect cannot be obtained.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, as a measure for spontaneously transitioning the part of muscles in the arm to the ideal state, winding of a training band around the arm is employed. As a result of the wrapping of the training band, the muscle that has been in tension relaxes, and as a result, the blood circulation is improved by the action of the muscle pump. Thus, the person who performs the training can relax as a result of feeling better by wrapping the training band. Further, this relaxing action makes it easier to release the tension of the part of the muscles in the upper arm 121. Furthermore, the following can be inferred as a process for releasing muscle tension by winding a training band. First, muscle contraction, skin tension, and the like change. Next, when the position sense detects changes such as muscle contraction, the whole body tries to maintain a balance based on the detected changes. As a result, the posture of the whole body becomes an ideal state or approaches the ideal state, so that the muscle tension is released.

  In addition, since the upper arm band 111 is wound around the upper arm 121, the muscle of the part of the upper arm 121 can be corrected so as to be in an ideal state.

  Here, by winding the upper arm band 111 outwardly with the upper arm 121, the process in which the part of the muscle in the upper arm 121 is in an ideal state is estimated as follows. When the position of the head is shifted forward from the ideal position, both arms are likely to be positioned ahead of the shoulder. As a result, the muscle of the part of the upper arm 121 changes in the inward direction. Therefore, by winding the upper arm band 111 outwardly with the upper arm 121, the part of the muscle in the upper arm 121 is in an ideal state.

  Further, since the forearm band 112 is wound inwardly by the forearm, it is possible to correct the partial muscle of the forearm so as to be in an ideal state.

  Here, by winding the forearm band 112 inwardly with the forearm 122, the process in which the part of the muscle in the forearm 122 is in an ideal state is estimated as follows. When the position of the head is shifted forward from the ideal position, both arms are likely to be positioned ahead of the shoulder. As a result, the muscle of the part of the forearm 122 transitions in the outward direction. Furthermore, when the upper arm band 111 is wound outwardly by the upper arm 121, the forearm 122, particularly the muscles on the elbow side, easily transition outward. Therefore, by winding the forearm band 112 inward with the forearm 122, the part of the muscle in the forearm 122 is in an ideal state.

  Further, since the state where the bands 111 and 112 are wound is maintained, the muscles of the whole body maintain the balance of the whole body and also support the excessive load previously supported by the muscles of a part of the upper arm 121. Try to. The head position returns to an ideal position by the action of the muscles throughout the body. As a result, the posture of the whole body becomes an ideal state.

  Thus, according to the training using the training band, the ideal posture lost due to the daily activity pattern can be recovered, and the symptoms such as stiff shoulders caused by the loss of the ideal posture can be suppressed.

  When the arm muscles are in tension, the shoulder muscles and facial muscles are pulled in the direction of the arms, that is, downward. As a result, the mouth is lowered. Therefore, by performing the training method described above, the muscles of the arms that have been in tension are relaxed. Accompanying the relaxation of the arm muscles, the shoulder muscles and facial muscles are not pulled downward and the original state is obtained. Thus, according to the training method described above, a face-up effect can also be obtained.

  The training band may be formed from a single band or a plurality of bands. An example of a training band formed from a plurality of bands is shown in FIG. The upper arm band 111 includes a direct band portion 111A that is directly wound around the upper arm, an upper arm band 111, and an indirect band portion 111B that is wound around the upper arm via another member. The direct band portion 111A and the indirect band portion 111B may be continuous or different bands. The forearm band 112 is the same as the upper arm band 111.

  The indirect band portion 111B is preferably rich in elasticity compared to the direct band portion 111A. Further, when the upper arm band 111 is wound twice on the upper arm, a portion directly wound around the arm may be directly set as the band portion 111A, and a portion wound around the outermost periphery may be set as the indirect band portion 111B. Due to the small stretchability of the direct band portion 111A, a predetermined muscle can be shifted to an ideal state.

  Here, the process by which a predetermined muscle can be changed to an ideal state by the small stretchability of the direct band portion 111A is estimated as follows. When the direct band portion 111A having relatively small stretchability is wound around the upper arm, a circumferential shear stress is generated in the upper arm. It is considered that a predetermined muscle transitions (correction action) due to the shear stress.

  On the other hand, a predetermined muscle can be changed to an ideal state by the stretchable size of the indirect band portion 111B.

  Here, the process by which a predetermined muscle can be transitioned to an ideal state is presumed as follows according to the stretchability of the indirect band portion 111B. When the indirect band portion 111B having relatively large stretchability is wound around the upper arm, a compressive force from the body surface toward the center is generated in the upper arm due to the restoring force of the indirect band portion 111B. This compressive force creates the action of the muscle pump, and as a result, the person performing the training can relax (compression action).

  Therefore, as a training band, by winding a highly elastic band on a predetermined part wound with a small elastic band, the predetermined muscles can be obtained by a synergistic effect of correction and compression. The tension of can be solved more reliably. In addition, when the upper arm band 111 is wound three times around the upper arm, the portion directly wound around the arm and the second round portion are directly set as the band portion 111A, and the third round portion, that is, the portion wound around the outermost circumference is indirectly set. The band portion 111B may be used.

  In order to create a balanced ideal state, it is better to wrap a training band on each of the left and right arms. In the embodiment described above, the upper arm band 111 and the forearm band 112 are wound around one arm at the same time. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and either one may be wound.

  In the above embodiment, the upper arm band 111 and the forearm band 112 wound around the arm have been described as the training band. However, as shown in FIG. 14, for example, the thigh band 113 and the shin band are used as the training band. 114 may be used. The thigh band 113 is wound around the thigh 123. The shin band 114 is wound around the shin 124. The direction in which the thigh band 113 is wound may be a direction in which a muscle of a part of the thigh that has deviated from the ideal state as a result of continuing the tension state transitions to the ideal state. Similarly, the direction in which the tibial band 114 is wound may be a direction in which a muscle of a part of the shin that has deviated from the ideal state as a result of continuing the tension state transitions to the ideal state. As a result, the outer muscles and inner muscles of the legs (thighs and shins) can be brought into an ideal state.

  Further, as a training band, there is a hand band 117 wound around the hand.

  As shown in FIG. 22, the hand band 117 is wound around the palm 127, and the winding path passes through the side surface on the index finger side and the side surface on the little finger side. In this way, when the hand band 117 is wound around the palm, the joint between the tendons connecting the tendons of the fingers is arcuate, that is, the index finger side part and the little finger side part of the inter-tendon joints are from the middle part. Will also protrude to the palm side. This state is maintained for a certain time (for example, 5 to 10 minutes). In this way, by maintaining the joint between the tendons in an arc shape, a part of the muscle that has been in a tension state becomes an ideal state, and thus an ideal state of the whole body can be created. The hand band 117 may be wound on any one of the thumb 127, the index finger, the middle finger, the ring finger, and the little finger in addition to the palm 127. Among them, it is preferable to wrap the hand band 117 around the first joint of the finger of the hand, particularly the nail portion.

  It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it is needless to say that various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
