ABSTRACT:
A tiltable body exercising device for exercising the lower body including the abdomen and legs. The exerciser includes a seat for supporting the person doing the exercise, padded supports that hold the back of the knees, and a pair of supports at the bottom for supporting the front and back of the feet. The control arms for the knee, feet, and seat are of unequal length and movable between a first sitting position and a second elevated position wherein the relative positions of the feet and knees are varied to permit the person doing the exercise to perform inverted sit-ups and leg exercises. A pair of handles adjacent to the knee pads may be used to aid the person doing the exercise to achieve and reverse the elevated position. Stops on the upper control arm and the bottom of the seat restrict the range of movement of the tiltable exerciser. In a similar manner, the bottom foot support acts as a place for the feet to push against when the person doing the exercise comes back to a sitting position. The bottom foot support also acts as a catch for the feet when the person doing the exercise comes back to a sitting position.
