The training strap is designed to help users improve their balance skills. Its width is usually narrow, mostly between 2 and 5 centimeters, which makes the player's landing point narrower, greatly increasing the difficulty of balance, and prompting the body to constantly adjust the center of gravity and strengthen the sense of balance. The tension of this type of flat belt is large, and there is almost no obvious shaking after installation, which allows users to focus on improving their balance control ability, and is the first choice for professional athletes and people who want to quickly improve balance skills. For example, in the daily training of professional slingers, training slingers can help them improve stability and master more complex movement skills. ​
