Abstract

A swing training system for improving muscle memory and weight transfer during a swinging motion. The swing training system comprises a first device and a second device for a user to stand upon raised flat summits on each device placed approximately shoulder width apart. The user then performs a swinging motion corresponding to a sport such as golf, tennis or baseball while maintaining balance on the devices. Such balance will be committed to muscle memory and will allow for better swings when in actual play.
