ABSTRACT:
An athletic exercise device and method for improving an athlete's reflexes may include cushioned arms that are moved laterally toward the athlete so that the athlete must move to avoid the arms. In certain body contact sports, such as boxing and karate, athletes with improved reflexes to avoid blows have an advantage. By selectively moving the arms of the present invention toward the athlete and thereby training the athlete to avoid being struck by the arms, the reflexes for such sports may be improved. The arms may extend through slots in a vertical backboard and be moved by a trainer positioned behind the backboard. Elastic cord may be provided to retract the arms away from the athlete and the backboard may be mobile to enhance training effectiveness.
