  • Training device
    Patent number: 7008351
    Abstract: A training device for acquiring the correct hand motion associated with the different types of sport and for strengthening the wrist and forearm. The device is simple and portable. It utilizes a combination of a magnet and a plunger, the magnet having a sufficient force to keep the plunger attached but not strong enough to prevent the plunger from dislodging from the magnet when a user snaps the device. The device is designed so that the snapping sound caused by the plunger hitting a wall synchronizes with the impact on the muscles felt by the user during a hand motion.
