Patent number: 9254429Abstract: The present disclosure provides a training apparatus for developing fundamental skill for the game of football which comprises a base pad having at least one of a hand grip and a shoulder pad, and an outer pad mounted and securely stitched to a front of the base pad. The outer pad includes a torso region and a shoulder region shaped to mimic shoulder pads of a football player. In some embodiments, the outer pad is covered with a grippable mesh material adapted to mimic a texture and form of a football jersey. The outer pad may be smaller than and fit within a perimeter of the front of the base pad, and during training, the outer pad is adapted to draw attention to the center of the training apparatus to draw hands of a training player inside the perimeter of the base pad.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2015Date of Patent: February 9, 2016Assignee: MARTY GILMAN, INC.Inventor: Neil F. Gilman

Patent number: 9248592Abstract: A logo displaying miniature football pylon is disclosed. The pylon includes an elastomeric body having a greater longitudinal, height-wise dimension than a transverse dimension. The pylon has a height-wise bottom portion, which includes a height-wise bottom surface for being seated on a tabletop, and a weighted mass substantially concealed therein, providing stability to the pylon when positioned on the tabletop. The pylon includes a top surface which height-wise opposes the bottom surface, and at least one side surface that includes at least one logo portion, which is at or adjacent to the pylon top surface, and contains logo indicia. From this, the pylon is capable of stably displaying the logo indicia in an upright configuration above the tabletop.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2011Date of Patent: February 2, 2016Assignee: MARTY GILMAN, INC.Inventor: Neil F. Gilman

Patent number: 9248360Abstract: A training device, including a ball and an anchored connecting structure that is anchored to the ball. A distal portion of the anchored connecting structure is a connector, extending from a distal portion of the ball, that is capable of connecting with a motion resisting device. A proximate portion of the anchored connecting structure extends into an inner volume of the ball, whereby resistance is provided to twisting and pulling motions between the anchored connecting structure and the ball, resulting from torsion and thrust loading during training.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2015Date of Patent: February 2, 2016Assignee: MARTY GILMAN, INC.Inventor: Neil F. Gilman

Patent number: 8894512Abstract: A training device is disclosed, which includes a ball and a biasing member, where a distal portion of the ball is connected to a proximate end of the biasing member. A support member is connected to a distal end of the biasing member, where the support member is adapted for being connected to a stationary support structure. From this configuration, the ball is capable of deflecting from an initial, rest configuration when the ball is perturbed by clubbing, punching and/or chopping, and rapidly returning to the rest configuration after the perturbation.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2011Date of Patent: November 25, 2014Assignee: Marty Gilman, Inc.Inventor: Neil F. Gilman

Patent number: 8617007Abstract: A training sled including a pair of nonlinear runners of tubular construction arranged in parallel relative to a center axis and a plane. A head crossbar of tubular construction may extend between first ends of the runners and may be joined thereto so as to form a continuous tubular U-shaped member with the runners. A weight bearing member may be affixed to and extend between the pair of nonlinear runners near mid-sections thereof. A rear crossbar of tubular construction may extend between and may be disposed above the plane of the runners proximate second ends thereof and may be joined thereto opposite the head crossbar, so as to present a rearward facing surface against which force may be applied. The training sled may include a removable handlebar in a variety of configurations. A ski accessory may be configured to removably attach to the training sled. The ski accessory may include a pair of nonlinear skis arranged in parallel relative to a center axis and a plane.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2010Date of Patent: December 31, 2013Assignee: Marty Gilman, Inc.Inventor: Neil F.
