ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed towards an improved abdominal exercise device and includes a body made of a rigid, substantially strong yet lightweight material having a substantially flat, generally rectangular shaped base portion, a pair of spaced, generally parallel, upstanding sidewalls, each operably connected to the base portion and having a substantially semicircular shape, and an upper portion operably connected to and spanning the base portion and sidewalls in a covering relation and further defining a planar surface also having a substantially semicircular shape. The exercise device may include a groove formed in and extending longitudinally across the upper spanning portion and may further include a cushion sized and configured to substantially cover the upper spanning portion, formed of a foam padding and soft water resistant fabric. Finally, the exercise device of this invention may be securely mounted onto a standard exercise bench and may also include a handle so that it can be easily transported from one work-out location to another.
