ABSTRACT:
A swing training and exercise apparatus used by a swinger for practicing and exercising swing motions. The swing training apparatus has a tubular, generally rectangular framework (10). A first handle (30) is on the inboard end (11a) of the upper member 11 of the framework (10), and an end of a second handle (40) is attached at an obtuse angle to framework (10) between the horizontal upper member (11) and a vertical inboard member (13) of framework (10). The area enclosed by the framework (10) is covered by an air resistant material (20) attached thereto for providing drag that opposes the swing motion. The amount of drag is dependent on the material chosen, the percentage of the enclosed area covered by air resistant material (20), and the aspect ratio of the plane of the framework (10) and material (20) to the path of the swing enabling the swinger to practice and build up muscles and muscle memory needed to effect a good, proper swing. The large size of the framework (10) and the visible portions of material (20) provide a strong visual cue to the proper positioning of the framework during the swing motion. The apparatus is foldable for easy storage.
