Int. Cl. A471: 1/04 U.S. Cl. 4-166 16 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A sensing device, often called an antenna, employed with a capacitance-operated proximity control circuit to detect and respond to the presence or absence of a user in front of a lavatory or any other plumbing fixture. The antenna develops an increase in capacitance upon the arrival of the user at the front of the lavatory. The increase of capacitance activates an electronic control circuit which turns on the faucet of the lavatory and keeps it turned on while the user sways his body in washing his hands. When the user departs from the lavatory, the faucet will be turned off upon the resulting decrease in the capacitance.
This invention relates to sensing devices and apparatus suitable for detecting the presence or absence of a person or an object at a particular location, such as a plumbing fixture. More particularly, this invention relates to sensing devices, often called antennas," for sensing or detecting the presence of a user in front of a plumbing fixture, such as a lavatory, and, in response to the arrival of the user, to operate the plumbing fixture by turning on the water if the plumbing fixture is a lavatory and maintaining a continuous flow of water even if the users body sways while washing his hands, and later, in response to the departure of the user, to de-activate the plumbing fixture.
Stated differently, this invention relates to antenna structures for fixtures, such as lavatories, in which the antennas will undergo desired or predetermined electrical changes in response to the arrival of the user to initiate the operation of the fixture and will continue to maintain the desired or predetermined changes even when the user sways or bends his body away from the fixture while washing his hands. In response to the departure of the user, the structure will respond to corresponding desired or predetermined changes to de-activate the fixture.
Stated in still another way, this invention relates to an antenna structure for a lavatory or other fixture which will undergo a substantial positive change in capacitance or reactance upon the approach of the user, and maintain substantially the same reactance change even though the body of the user sways or moves while his hands remain in the bowl of the lavatory, and which will undergo another substantially equal changesay a negative change in capacitance or reactance-upon the departure of the user. The positive change in capacitance or reactance will activate a solenoid valve or, if it has already been operated and the antenna has undergone a negative change, the negative change will interrupt its operation.
The antenna structure of the present invention is especially suitable for and applicable to a lavatory which may be used at airports, public rest rooms, kitchens, etc., or in any places where it is desired to have the lavatory controlled by the approach and departure of the user. The antenna structure embodies, in its basic form, an elongated metallic structure as the essential capacity changing component, and the structure includes a correspondingly elongated casing which may be made of a material such as plastic. The combination preferably is small in size and hence readily concealed beneath the plumbing fixture to protect it against vandalism and theft. The antenna structure is essentially made up of a specially contoured metallic element, to be subsequently described, and its operating characteristics depend upon its shape and upon the adjacent ceramic, plastic or wood-top material of which the lavatory or its deck is made.
The antenna or sensing device of a so-called proximity control system for a plumbing system, such as a lavatory, is of importance because it serves to trigger the operation of the proximity equipment and initiate the flow or stoppage of water. The antenna must be arranged to promptly bring on the flow of water upon the approach of the user and to maintain it operated even while the body of the user sways away from the lavatory while his hands remain within the lavatory basin. Thus, the antenna must be effective to maintain control of the solenoid even while the user is washing has hand or hands. Furthermore, the antenna structure is equally important in deactivating the flow of water into the bowl of the lavatory just as soon as the user has fully departed from the lavatory. Thus, the antenna must undergo a predetermined electrical reactive change upon the arrival of the user so that the control circuits connected to the antenna structure will be operated properly and promptly. Furthermore, it must supply the electrical property required to overcome those changes brought about by the shifting body movements while the hands of the user are positioned adjacent to or within the bowl of the lavatory and thereby maintain the continuity of the water flow, Also, the antenna structure must undergo a substantially equal but opposite change in its reactive property upon the departure of the user from the lavatory so that the spigot of the lavatory will be turned off promptly when this occurs. This requirement implies that the positive capacitive change caused by the flow of the water should be small compared to the change caused by the presence of the user. The prompt and correct starting and stopping of the water control mechanism not only will satisfy the user, but also it will limit the wastage of water.
The most common variety of antenna structure suggested for proximity controlled plumbing fixtures consists of a simple vertical metallic plate which is located at the front of the fixture and is connected to appropriate control circuitry and to a controlled solenoid valve of the fixture. Such a simple vertical metallic plate member is sensitive only in a direction normal to the plane of the metallic plate member. Such a vertical plate member, however, suffers from the difficulty that, as the user advances far enough toward the antenna to turn the water on, the water will be turned off just as soon as the user leans forward to wash his hands. This is due to the fact that the mid-section of the user naturally sways away from the plate antenna while the users hands are being positioned within the bowl of the lavatory, thereby necessarily reducing the capacitance of the antenna structure and deactivating the mechanism. The stoppage of the water at this time not only is undesirable but it is baffling to the user. The mechanism turns the water off just when it may be needed most, sometimes startling the user. Such erratic and defective action, introduced by the limitations of a vertical plate member serving as an antenna arrangement, has constituted an operating defect and has retarded the use and growth of proximity structures for lavatories.
Another antenna structure suggested for proximity-controlled plumbing fixtures consists of a simple vertical metallic plate which is located near the spout or spigot. Such an antenna is sensitive to the position of hands under the spout, in the normal washing position; however, such an antenna suffers from the difficulty that the water itself is grounded via the supply and drain pipes, and therefore the presence of water tends to create a positive change in capacitance that is sufficiently large to maintain the flow of water. In other words, the antenna turns the water on readily, but cannot turn it off nearly as readily.
One of the principal objects of the present invention is to provide an antenna structure which will be substantially free of the difiiculties above mentioned. According to this invention, the antenna structure will be shaped not alone to trigger the operation of the solenoid mechanism upon the adequate approach of the user, but also to maintain it in full and continuous operation even as the body of the user sways or bends during any intervals when he is Washing his hands and also will be relatively free from capacitive effects due to the normal flow of water. The antenna structure will, therefore, embody a particularized shape, including a segment or member which will be effective essentially to respond to the approach of the body of the user and, moreover, other segments or members to respond to the washing position of the hands and the incidental movement of the mid-section of the user with respect to the lavatory to maintain the solenoid valve continuously operated while the hands of the user remain in the locality of the bowl of the lavatory.
It should be pointed out that the mere enlargement of the prior suggested single vertical plate antenna in front of the fixture, in an effort to overcome the defects noted, will be insufficient to meet the normal requirements of good operation under the conditions encountered. A large single plate will have increased sensitivity to the rear as well as to the front, so that it will have too large a sensitivity to the presence of water flowing. Even if a shield is interposed between the plate antenna and the water to minimize this effect, the resulting structure will be large, and will be a tempting target for vandals. These undesired effects are overcome by a multisegment antenna structure of the kind which will be more fully described hereinafter in connection with the disclosure of this invention.
The multi-segment antenna structure of this invention will be relatively small in size and shaped so that it may be easily concealed from the view of vandals and thieves and yet its shape will provide the necessary plural sensitivities to respond fully and properly to the varying physical conditions that occur in the normal and expected use of lavatories. By embodying the multi-segment ano tenna structure as a component of the lavatory by mounting it so that its physical location will be on the underside of the lavatory, the ceramic or other material of the lavatory proper will form a part of the antenna system, and will increase the change in capacitance created by the presence of the user in front of the lavatory. The antenna structure will be shaped so that it effectively and continuously looks at the body of the user as he approaches or arrives at the lavatory, and also continuously looks up to his arm position or positions as the users body sways or bends away from the lavatory during the hand washing period, and so maintains a desired continuity of the service.
This invention will be better understood from the more detailed description and explanation hereinafter following, when read in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which FIG. 1 illustrates a perspective view of a proximity lavatory made of ceramic material to which the invention may be applied; FIG. 2 represents a front elevational view of the proximity lavatory; FIG. 3 illustrates a view of the underside of the lavatory per se to show the antenna housing as a part of the combination; FIG. 4 shows a portion of the lavatory and a partial cross-sectional view of the mechanism for mounting the antenna structure and afiixing it to the lavatory; FIG. 5
4 shows the metallic antenna element of this invention; FIG. 6 shows a plan view of the assembled antenna structure; FIG. 7 shows a front elevational view thereof; FIG. 8 shows a cross-sectional view taken on line VIIIVIII of FIG. 7; FIG. 9 illustrates a plan view of a modified form of antenna structure, partly cut away; and FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view taken on line X-X of FIG. 9.
Throughout the drawing, the same reference characters will be employed to designate the same or similar parts.
The antenna construction embodied in this invention is arranged for physical connection to the underside of a lavatory 20, as already suggested and as shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 of the drawing. The lavatory 20 is preferably made of vitreous china and is preferably of the wall-hung type or of the countertop or drop-in type. That is, the lavatory preferably may be mounted on the wall in embodying this invention. The antenna structure 42 includes a specially shaped, elongated metallic member, as shown in FIG. 5 and the metallic antenna member 42 is encased in a housing 60, preferably made of plastic, the combination being shown in FIG. 6, for example. The combination of the antenna member 42 and its casing 60 and additional structural components are together illustrated generally in the assembly shown, for example, in FIG. 6.
The metallic antenna structure 42 of this invention is essentially made of a flat elongated piece of metal, such as steel, copper or aluminum, a clear perspective view of which is shown in FIG. 5. As will be apparent from FIG. 5, the flat piece of metal 42 is right-angular in cross-section and is cut away at its center to provide a central segment 44 and two winged segments 46 and 48 which are on the two opposite, or left and right, sides of the central segment 44. The winged segments 46 and 48 are intended to be positioned adjacent to the front central portion of the lavatory 20 so that, in the normal use of the lavatory 20 by the user who is standing in front of the lavatory 20, the body of the user normally will be adjacent to the vertical sections 54 and 56 of the winged segments 46 and 48 of the structure. As shown in FIG. 5, for example, the central section 44 consists of a narrow vertical strip of metal which will be fairly close to the body of the user as he approaches adjacent to the lavatory 20. Such a narrow strip of material 44 is relatively insensitive by itself, but in conjunction with Wings 46 and 48 the antenna will be sufficiently sensitive to develop the required increase in capacitance when the body of the user is closely adjacent to the lavatory 20 and thereby develops the necessary reactance to initiate the operation of the mechanism.
The Winged segments 46 and 48 comprise two fiat horizontal metallic portions 50 and 52 and two vertical metallic portions 54 and 56, respectively. The horizontal portions 50 and 52 are located facing upward to the normal positions of the arms of the user when he is Washing his hands in the bowl of lavatory 20. Thus, the two horizontal portions 50 and 52 continuously look up at the arms of the user and introduce an appreciable increased capacitance as the arms of the user are positioned within or adjacent to the bowl of the lavatory 20. This capacitance is sufficient, as will be outlined hereinafter, to maintain the faucet mechanism in full and proper operation even while the body of the user sways or bends from the front of the lavatory during the hand-washing interval.
The casing 60, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, is elongated and houses the elongated metallic member 42, and the casing is curved or shaped, not only to conform to the contour of the front of the lavatory 20 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, but it also conforms to the similarly curved metallic member 42. The casing 60 is preferably made of any suitable plastic material, either transparent or nontransparent plastic material, and the thickness of Walls of the casing member 60 may be, for example, about 4;" thick. The casing 60 also embodies two lateral plastic winged sections 64 and 66, as shown. The plastic casing 60 may also include a plurality of studs, four of which are shown in FIG. 6 and are designated 71, 72, 73 and 74. These studs are passed through corresponding apertures 50', 50", 52' and 52" in the metallic member 42 and are employed to hold the metallic antenna member 42 permanently positioned and aflixed against the top horizontal side of the plastic casing 60. As will be further noted later, a minimum spacing is therefore provided between the upper horizontal surfaces of the metallic antenna member 42 and the upper horizontal segments of the winged sections 64 and 66 of casing 60. This minimal spacing may be accomplished, for example, by hammering or flattening the heads of the several studs 71 and 74 so as to depress or flatten them out and thereby insure a permanent grip between the metallic member 42 and the casing 60.
It will also be observed from FIG. 6 that the casing 60 includes two substantially equal openings or slots 76 and 78 in the respective winged segments 64 and 66. These slots 76 and 78 are intended to receive conventional toggle or expansion bolts 80 which are inserted into the openings 76 and 78. One such bolt 80 is shown in FIG. 4 in its mounted position. The toggle bolts are inserted into appropriate openings 81 on the underside of the lavatory 20, which openings 81 would normally receive the legs of a lavatory if it were not wall mounted. These toggle bolts 80 may be manually adjusted by the installer so as to hold the assembled antenna casing 60 permanently aflixed against the underside of the lavatory 20 as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3. The plastic casing 60 also embodies an additional opening or slot 86, which may be located, for example, on one side of the casing 60, for receiving appropriate tubing 90 bearing and enclosing the usual Wiring extending between the metallic antenna member 42 and the electrical control equipment within a housing 100 for automatically controlling the flow and stoppage of water, as may be desired, via the faucet 120 of the lavatory 20. The electrical equipment of housing 100 may be connected through other electrical circuitry, such as a transformer within a housing 102, to a conventional power outlet 104. The electrical equipment within housing 100 is 'wired to a solenoid (not shown but preferably positioned on the underside of lavatory 20) which controls the faucet 120. Moreover, the tubing 90 preferably embodies a tapered or enlarged head 92 which would be retained within' the slot 86 and would bar the removal of the tubing 90.
The casing 60 preferably will also include a small variable or adjustable capacitor 94 which, as shown in FIG. 6, serves to connect one end of the metallic antenna member 42 to the ground conductor of the cable extending through the tubing "90. This capacitor 94 introduces a desired or predetermined capacitance into the control circuitry. For example, capacitor 94 may have a capacitance which would bring the total capacitance between the antenna structure 42 and ground (including the applicable adjacent ceramic or other material) to a value which may be adjusted to about 60 pf.:L- 1.5 pf.
As already noted, the metallic antenna element 42 includes a narrow segment 44 in the central region thereof as shown in FIG. 5. This narrow segment 44 may extend horizontally over a distance of, say, six inches. This narrow segment 44 need not be a fiat plate member or segment; alternatively it may be any piece of conductive wire of any cross-sectional shape, whether round or square or whatever. This central segment 44 serves to substantially eliminate or diminish the reactive effect of the flow of water through the usual drain pipe 120 and also through the overflow path 100 within the lavatory 20 to the drain pipe 120 in its travel to and through the usually grounded drain pipe 120 and into the sewer system. Thus, this small central segment 44 will render the change in electrostatic capacity of the antenna structure 42 substantially insensitive to the flow of water through the drain pipe 120 or through the overflow path 110 of the lavatory 20 to the drain pipe 120. This insensitivity to the presence of water in the lavatory occurs because the antenna is not closely coupled to the overflow. As can be seen in FIG. 1, the china surrounding the overflow represents a relatively short path of relatively large cross-sectional area between the antenna and the Water near the drain. To prevent coupling via this path, the central segment 44 of the antenna is deliberately made with a small projected area. By comparison, the winged segments 46 and 48 are coupled to the water through the china via relatively long paths of relatively small cross-sectional area. Therefore, the capacitance effect of water on the antenna is kept to an acceptably low value.
The extended or widened winged segments 46 and 4 8 of the antenna structure 42 provide a special and unique purpose in supplying necessary capacitance for initiating the operation of the solenoid and its controlled faucet 120, or for maintaining the solenoid and the faucet in operation if they had previously been initiated, when either or both of the hands of the user are in their usual or appropriate positions within or near the bowl of the lavatory 20. The substantially vertical portions 54 and 56 of the antenna structure 42 are capacitively sensitive primarily to the presence of the user as he approaches the lavatory. The substantially horizontal portions 50 and 52 of the antenna structure 42, though positioned on the underside of the lavatory 20, provide added capacitance as the arms of the user reach toward or into the bowl of the lavatory 20. Thus, the winged sections 50 and 52 insure the operation of the faucet mechanism when either or both of the arms of the user are within the bowl area even though the body of the user may have swayed considerably away from the front of the lavatory 20. This compensating factor is an important feature of the present invention.
The unitary metallic antenna member 42 may be regarded as composed of three individual components, two separated components, 46 and 48, having vertical areas 54 and 56 for sensing the presence of a body and horizontal areas 50 and 52 for sensing the position of the areas of the user as the arms are lowered into the lavatory bowl, and a central segment 44 which serves to decouple the antenna from the water and to connect the end segments.
The metallic antenna structure 42 and the casing 60 are shown as arcuate and similarly shaped longitudinal components, but obviously they may be linear or of any other shape to conform to the shape of the understructure of the lavatory 20. The smallness of the principal components, i.e., the metallic structure 42 and casing 60, render them especially suitable for easy installation on the underside of any lavatory, the installation to be made either at the factory where the lavatory is manufactured or at the location where the lavatory is installed. The absence of large metallic structures, especially large flat structures, is especially desirable for the avoidance of vandalism and thievery.
FIGS. 9 and 10 show a modified arrangement in which the casing 60 is composed of a central portion, similar to that shown in FIG. 6, and two separate segments 64 and 66 which are arranged to be separately adjustable for different lavatories.
The apertures 76 and 78 within the casing 60 of FIG. 6 and the winged segments 64 and 66 of FIG. 9 are suitable to provide adjustability of the casing to accommodate the casing and its enclosures to lavatories of different widths.
While this invention has been shown and described in certain particular arrangements merely for illustration and explanation, it will be clearly understood that this invention may be applied to many other and widely varied organizations all designed for carrying out the features and objects of the present invention.

Which college degrees give you the best chances of finding employment after graduation? Seek out accredited nursing programs for the best training. Given a brief hospital internship or prior work experience, you can expect a great return on your medical education.

Check with the medical assisting department for course registration deadlines, and medical assistant program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Saint Johns College.
Healthcare jobs such as Registered Nurses, LPN's, LVN's and related Vocational Technicians provide over 15 million jobs in the United States alone. Most healthcare workers have jobs that require less than 4 years of college education, such as health technologists and technicians, electronic medical records specialists, medical insurance billing, health information technicians, diagnostic medical sonographers, and medical insurance billing. Founded in 1898, the American Hospital Association provides education for health care leaders and is a source of information on health care issues and trends.
The outlook for technical medical careers is especially bright. Opportunities for employment for medical laboratory technicians are expected to increase by 10% to 20% in the next eight years. The increasing number of elderly people is seen as a factor in this growth. As people age they have more medical problems, and hospitals will require more laboratory technicians to perform lab work for them. Aside from a good salary, most medical personnel receive comprehensive medical and dental benefits, as well as retirement plans. Beyond major requirements within the medical assisting department, you may consider Colby College lab assistant jobs as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

You may find the SHIFT statement useful in some of your batch files. What SHIFT does is shift the parameters passed to the batch file from right to left. This gives you one way, for example, to have your batch file accept a variable number of parameters.
Internally, the command interpreter numbers elements of the command line. For instance, consider the following command that executes a batch file name DOIT.BAT:
doit first second third fourth fifth
In this instance, the command provides five parameters to the DOIT.BAT file. The command interpreter, internally, numbers these parameters %1 through %5. In reality, though, there is a "parameter" numbered %0: the batch file name itself. Create your own DOIT.BAT file that contains the following:
All the batch file does is to echo, to the screen, the elements of the command line and then shifts (through the SHIFT command) all the elements to the left. After the shift, element %0 is discarded, element %1 becomes %0, element %2 becomes %1, and so on. When you run the batch file, you should see the following output:
doit first second third fourth fifth first second third fourth fifth second third fourth fifth third fourth fifth fourth fifth fifth
When you use SHIFT in your batch file, you can invoke the file with a variable number of parameters and then shift through them to do your processing.
This tip (13198) applies to Windows 7 and 8.

Thanks for the help you give! I am so excited about what I can now do with Batch Files!
2014-08-23 08:56:44
Sorry I wasn't as coherent as I should have been. Let me try simplifying it.
The SHIFT command causes the batch procedure to shift the command-line parameters one position to the left. So if you invoked a batch procedure called Barry.bat and specified parameters "one two three", i.e., you'd type (without quotes) "Barry.bat one two three", then inside Barry.bat the symbol %1 would take on the value of "one", the symbol %2 would take on the value of "two", and the symbol %3 would take on the value of "three". Each time the procedure does a SHIFT, the command-line parameters are shifted to the left. So after one SHIFT, the symbol %1 would take on the value of "two", and the symbol %2 would take on the value of "three". After another SHIFT, %1 would be "three"; and after another SHIFT, %1 would be empty.
Here's Barry.bat...
@echo off
echo %1 %2 %3
echo %1 %2
echo %1
echo %1
Here's the output when I invoke it with C:Bat>Barry.bat one two three
one two three
two three
ECHO is off.
I hope this makes more sense.

Although, I appreciate your effort here Barry but indeed, I must have to agree with Angela that your article is far too technical to understand. Kindly, if it can be made a little easy for us the beginners? Thank you!

Don't they love the sound of their own voices. Don't they hate a story that produces some better news than they wanted to hear. Don't they love spending time on prurient irrelevancies when there are really important weightier concerns around to hear about.
We are hardly short of noteworthy news in all its forms at the present time. Instead, as there is a court judgement given that is favourable to the media, what do we get, a headline and discussion on someone's private life, because it gives the media a chance to indulge in a 'holier than thou' frenzy of righteousness.
Meantime, a relatively good news story, the decisive yes vote in the German Parliament supporting Euro emergency funds gets the 'if it [the vote] had gone the other way' treatment, which it decisively did not, 'there would have been ruination'. Well, Armageddon did not make a visitation today and the media did not get the story that they had so hyped up and hoped to report on.
There are three other world stories:
One is about a pastor in Iran who is threatened with the death penalty for his Christian faith. The death penalty will be lifted if he renounces his Christian beliefs. The penalty meted, is outwith the state and Sharia laws. It sounds like exemplary and dangerous posturing.
The second major concern is the sentencing to hefty terms of imprisonment of Bahrain medical staff who treated injured people at the time of the protests there. As far as could be seen, the nurses and doctors were performing humanitarian acts to save people's lives. That's what they are trained to do. Many protested about the types of injuries they saw appearing in the emergency units. The apparent silence from the Americans, Europe and the UK on this issue is shameful.
And another little matter of some interest. Rev.Desmond Tutu invited the Dalai Lama to his Birthday party in South Africa. The South African Government have a delegation in China at present. The Dalai Lama's visa request to attend the celebration is now on the back burner....no guesses needed as to why. The retired Archbishop is not at all amused by the political antics. There were no blocking tactics in the past, when The Dalai Lama was invited to the South Africa for Nelson Mandela's celebrations.

I guess the world is as busy as it is always. And it keeps Dalai Lama busy for celebration. Maybe that's one of the reasons he looks young beside his Buddhist practice.

What an interesting take on the Dalai Lama's present position. Is is because you are closer to understanding what his, and his followers beliefs are?

Parramatta coach Brad Arthur is hopeful troubled star Kieran Foran will be back soon playing in the NRL.
Just one year after trumpeting the signing of Foran on a four-year deal, the Eels on Friday parted ways with the New Zealand international after granting his request to be released from the club.
The former Manly five-eighth missed two games earlier this year after being given personal leave to address issues at a Brisbane rehabilitation clinic.
Foran eventually returned, but lasted just two games before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury and was also sensationally stripped of the captaincy for failing to complete his injury rehabilitation.
He played a total of nine games as an Eel.
Speaking after his side's 23-8 defeat on Saturday to the Wests Tigers, Arthur said he endorsed any move rugby league players made to take ownership of their careers.
"At the end of the day, Kieran's got to do what's best for him," he said.
"I'm all about what all the players do that's best for them. If that's what he needs to do and get himself on track, we're here to support him and, hopefully, he can come back to the NRL."
Asked whether he was relieved to have some closure on Foran's dramatic time at the club, Arthur said: "No disrespect to anyone, but we've just been focusing on the footy that we've had to play.
"We've got players here that want to play."
Club captain Tim Mannah said the team just wanted to give their former teammate his space.
"I think it's one of those cases where he needed a bit of time and space to himself. It's best for him and best for us to respect that and let him have that," he said.

There comes a time when full body weight training programs are not the answer. The answer to continual progress might be training splits. Training splits have been around since the inception of bodybuilding itself. Beginners are often taught to perform full body movements to build up a strong base. I agree with this statement, and am a huge proponent of full body movements.
This article is not for beginners. It's for people who have been training for quiet some time and are seriously considering training splits as a way to further their progress.
We all know about the traditional bodybuilding training splits. The problem with these is that they are not very functional. To me, they make very little sense for someone who is focused on becoming stronger for their sport, or are training with only their bodyweight.
So I have come up with some simple to follow split training schedules for those that are not necessarily training in a gym or wish to become huge bodybuilders:
Training Split for Sports
Most coaches recommend full body weight training programs for sports. For a beginner, this is perfect to build overall strength. But an advanced athlete needs something more specific. Split training is the way to go.
A split training schedule for sports is tough to develop because each sport is different. In addition, sports training usually works the entire body, so figuring out which bodypart to train on which day to coincide with your athletic training poses a big challenge.
The best way to remedy this is to split your body up into upper body and lower body sessions. Most sports are lower-body focused – they involve a lot of sprinting, jumping, and bounding.
Burn Fat with Calisthenics!
Finally...learn how to get in shape at home or in the park with limited to no equipment. Your bodyweight is all you need with these intense workouts...
Take, for example martial arts: when I was in Karate class, I would wake up with calves so sore, they would make me cry. I had to warm-up just to get out of bed. Overall, my legs were very sore too. I remember one day, after performing lunges in the gym in the afternoon, then going to Karate where we practiced forms and kicking for an hour straight, my legs were so sore, I couldn't walk properly for the entire week.
If I had to do it all over again, this is how I would organize my training with regards to martial arts:
Monday: Upper Body
Tuesday: Karate
Wednesday: Upper Body
Thursday: Karate
Friday: Lower Body
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Rest
Bodyweight Training Split
Most bodyweight training programs are actually organized in a full body format. This is because each movement works multiple muscle groups, so it is hard to isolate.
However, if you choose to only train with your bodyweight, or if you have absolutely no access to weights, then creating a bodyweight training split can be tough.
Best thing to do is go for a Push/Pull split. On your push day, you perform your pushups, dips, and squats. On your pull day, you perform your pullups and inverted rows.
Given, the options for pulling movements is limited, if you look at bodyweight training in the traditional sense of pushups, pullups, and squats. However, if you look outside the box, then you can start to implement movements such as as monkey bars and rope climbs.
You can also add in abdominal training. Think about it, when you perform a movement such as hanging leg raises, aren't you "pulling" your legs towards your body?
Here's a sample split:
Monday: Push
Tuesday: Pull
Wednesday: Rest
Thursday: Push
Friday: Pull
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Rest
Cardio Training Split
If your sport is cardio focused, or if your primary goal is fat loss and you wish to perform a lot of cardio, then you need to properly schedule your strength workouts around your cardiovascular exercise to prevent overuse injuries.
A traditional bodybuilding split is probably the best option for you. This way, you can perform your strength training, followed by a cardio session at the end. The last thing you want is to become a "cardio bunny" meaning that all you do all the time is cardio.
Here's a sample split:
Monday: Legs, Abs, Cardio
Tuesday: Chest, Triceps, Abs, Cardio
Wednesday: Rest
Thursday: Back, Biceps, Forearms, Cardio
Friday: Deltoids, Abs, Cardio
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Rest
Kettlebell Training Split
Similar to Bodyweight training, a Kettlebell training split is the most difficult to put together because every movement trains a multitude of muscle groups. This is why most Kettlebell programs are full body weight training programs. The best approach is to focus on a few core lifts.
For example, lets say you chose the Kettlebell Snatch as your core lift. The snatch trains your posterior chains, shoulders, and upper back, so you can add in swing training or pullups on that day.
On another day, your core lift can be Goblet squats. Perform movements that are related to this exercise such as squats and lunges. Finally, on the last day, you can perform the Turkish Getup. This is primarily a pushing movement, so throw in your pushups and shoulder presses on this day.
You will never really be able to create a perfect Kettlebell split, but you can get closer.
After lots of Kettlebell training, you will see some great shoulder development, and a strong posterior chain. If you feel you are overtraining these bodyparts, then you can lighten up, and perform movements for other bodyparts.
Here's a sample split:
Monday: KB Snatch, Pullups, Hanging Leg Raises,
Tuesday: Rest
Wednesday: KB Goblet Squats, Bodyweight Squats, Bodyweight Lunges
Thursday: Rest
Friday: Turkish Getup, Dips, KB Push Press
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Rest
So there you have it. Four great training splits to choose from! Good luck!

Sorry, we haven't named our new Trailhawk Yet. Working on it.
I have a question. We have a '16 Renegade Trailhawk.
We live in an area where chains (cable chains) may be necessary to get to work in the winter. We had a 2000 RAV4 where they went on the back. Our last RAV4 was a 2015 (traded it for the Trailhawk) chains went on the front. Can anybody give me insight into which would be best on the Renegade?
I am thinking if it is in auto it would be the front and if it is in lock it would be the back. Am I right.
I appreciate any help I can get. I already have chains, just want to do it right.
