ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for assisting an individual in training for a long jump, wherein the long jump includes a long jump runway and a long jump pit. The training apparatus includes a launching board positioned on the runway to propel a jumper into the apparatus. The apparatus has a frame assembly with a top portion, a bottom portion, a front portion, and a pair of opposing side portions. Each of the side portions has a lower flexible member extending therefrom which is positioned to allow a jumper's respective legs to pass thereover. The frame assembly also has an upper flexible member positioned to contact a jumper's chest. Alternatively, the training apparatus includes a plurality of separate movable elements, instead of an integral frame assembly.
