ABSTRACT:
An athletic training device to keep an athlete's arms or legs in a releasably fixed position adjacent to the athlete's torso. The device is primarily for boxing, but has application in any sport where a "ready" position requires arms or legs to be held in a certain position in close proximity to the torso, prior to extending them in competition. The device consists of patches on the arms and on the torso which releasably engage each other utilizing material such as a velcro-type hook and loop assembly. The patches may be held on the torso and arms by separate vests or sleeves, or may be attached to one unitary garment such as a shirt. The position in which the arms or other extremities are held against the torso may be adjusted by placement of the removably engagable patches. The removably engagable feature allows the device to be worn in practice competition, because it holds the arms in appropriate "ready" position but, upon release, allows a full range of motion without incumbrance.
