Pugilists' training apparatus
Abstract
Apparatus for a pugilist to punch during training, comprising a wall mount and one or more padded members for the pugilist to punch. Preferably the apparatus comprises a plurality of padded members arranged for the pugilist to practice different punches. Preferably the apparatus further comprises a substructure and one or more plates on which the padded members are attached. Shock absorbers are preferably disposed between the substructure and the wall mount. A first embodiment has a first padded member arranged such that, in use, it is substantially perpendicular to the wall and faces substantially towards the floor; and second and third padded members arranged either side of the first padded member and configured such that, in use, they are substantially perpendicular to the wall and there is an angle of approximately 45° between the major outer face of each padded member and the floor. A second embodiment has a first padded member arranged such that, in use, it is substantially perpendicular to the wall and faces substantially towards the floor; second and third padded members arranged either side of the first padded member and configured such that, in use, they are substantially perpendicular to the wall and there is an angle of between about 80° and 90° between the major outer face of each padded member and the floor; and a fourth padded member arranged between the second and third padded members and configured such that, in use, its major outer face is parallel or near-parallel to the wall and faces away from the wall.
