ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for the training of athletes in running-type activities and especially for determining peak performance characteristics comprises a horizontal bar which responds to the leg movements of the athlete and is mounted on a pivotal bar running to a support. The latter is provided with a spring which bears upon the pivotal bar and the assembly comprises a switch device responsive to the movement of the actuatable bar for producing signals which are evaluated in an electronic evaluation unit. A fabric loop suspended from above the actuatable bar passes around the latter and can be changed readily for hygienic purposes.
