Abstract
Abstract An athletic training arrangement, particularly suitable for martial arts, as karate, characterized as a unitary structure which affords selective physical conditioning in various activities at a single location and for one or more individuals simultaneously. The presented arrangement is in the form of a movable framework collectively mounting, by way of example, training equipment representatively including a "stretch-a-ciser", a vertical striking pad, a speed bag and rebound ring, a horizontal power pad, a target pad, a holder for a heavy bag, and a board holder, all cooperatively arranged as a unit which requires no direct securing or attachment at a selected location.
