ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for improving fitness and muscle rehabilitation which includes a horizontal base having an upwardly extending structure secured thereto. A seat is provided at the lower end so that a user may sit with legs extended up the slope. A carriage is mounted for movement along the structure, with a seat oriented so that a user can selectively push the carriage upwardly or restrain carriage movement downwardly. A power drive selectively moves the carriage up and down the structure at a desired rate against which the user works. Multiple safety devices are included to prevent the carriage from moving down the slope beyond a selected point and to prevent the carriage from moving at a speed beyond a selected rate. A convenient control box is provided for operating the apparatus in a selected mode.
