An apparatus for strengthening hand, wrist, forearm, and shoulder muscles,
thereby increasing performance and reducing the risk of injury in sports
that utilize a swinging motion, such as golf, tennis, or baseball. The
apparatus is also used to rehabilitate injured muscles and connective
tissue in the wrist, forearm, and shoulder.The apparatus consists of two
cam assemblies connected to a extensible support that has an adjustable
height. The cam assemblies are adjustable relative to the coronal plane
of the player's body and each comprises a support, a rotatable cam, a
handle, and a resistive band. Each handle is adjustable relative to the
sagittal plane of the player's body. The ability to adjust the apparatus
in three planes means that a player is able to focus on the development
of sport-specific muscles by adjusting the apparatus to mimic the swing
used for a particular sport.
