ABSTRACT:
An exercise device which is adapted to provide resistance to ankle flexion about a plurality of spaced axes. The device can be quickly and easily adjusted to allow exercising of the anterior, posterior, medial, and lateral muscles of the ankle and lower leg. When attached to this device, all ankle movement takes place about a single pivot axis, the multidirectional quality being achieved by changing the orientation of the user's foot and ankle to the resistive movement about the pivot axis. A movable foot plate secures the user's foot and ankle in the desired orientation, parallel or perpendicular, to the pivot axis.
