ABSTRACT:
A training device for preventing a batter from overstriding and causing a batter to feel an attempt to overstride is disclosed. In one embodiment, the device includes a length of material, one-half of the length of which is approximately equal to a maximum desired stride length for a batter. The ends of the material are joined at a central location, so that the material forms a loop. A pair of adjustable sliding rings are provided along the material, and each adjustment member cooperates with a portion of material to form respective, separate ankle loops. The adjustment members are slid along the material toward the central location to define relatively large ankle loops through which a user may pass his or her feet, and thereafter, the adjustment members are slid toward the respective ankles to snugly fit around the user's ankles. The device is made of a resilient material which firmly yet gently prevents the batter from moving his or her front foot away from the rear foot by greater than the previous determined distance equal to the desired stride length.
