Sport Throw Training Device

Abstract

A method for training athletes in the art of throwing projectiles using an apparatus comprising a throwing implement attached to the first end of a grounded elastic cord by a hook on which the throwing implement is slideable and rotatable. The throwing implement. may be a handle which contains a wire rope, rotatable thereon, and used for attachment to the slideable hook. The second end of the elastic cord is secured at the opposite to a stationary object. The handle is engaged by the throwing hand of the user to commit exercise in the throwing motion. All motion is natural due to the universal rotational aspects of the throwing implement. In particular, all throwing muscles of the athlete are greatly strengthened by the use of this apparatus.

1 . A method to train athletes in the art of throwing projectiles, comprising an apparatus which includes;
 a throwing implement secured to one end of a grounded flexible cord and adapted to be grasped by the throwing hand and pulled against tension;   including means for manipulating the center of gravity of said throwing implement; which is necessary for the exercise of all the throwing muscles in the proper sequence.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein said flexible cord includes a second end secured to a base. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein said throwing implement is a handle. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein said means of manipulating the center of gravity of said handle includes a handle frame assembly. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein said handle frame assembly contains a wire rope which is inserted into each end of said handle. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , where in said handle rotates longitudinally on same plane as said wire rope, and the flexibility of the wire allows for easier rotation. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein said flexible cord comprises an elastic cord. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein said elastic cord is connected to said wire rope by a slideable hook. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein said handle is rotatable horizontally and vertically on said wire rope.
