ABSTRACT:
In a blocking training apparatus, a motion control apparatus for coupling intermediate the sled frame or surface and a blocking pad assembly enables movement of the blocking pad both horizontally and vertically, with variable degrees of resistance throughout the whole exercise. The disclosed apparatus includes a planar base having a pair of vertical castings extending upwards therefrom which define a pair of separate, noncontiguous, and nonparallel tracks, a travel plate movably mounted within the tracks and a source of resistance, such as a coil spring and/or shock absorber attached between the travel plate and the base. The tracks include a pair of rear tracks which extent parallel to the plane of the base and a pair of front tracks which extent along an incline with respect to the plane of the base, enabling the blocking pad assembly to be pushed first rearwardly and then upwardly to more closely mimic the body movements and momentum of an opponent during the blocking exercise.
