ABSTRACT:
The exercise apparatus in accordance with the present invention includes a wheeled carriage having a generally flat top surface movably mounted on a generally rectangular frame. The carriage includes a removable shoulder stop and head rest assembly mounted on the carriage at one end thereof for preventing sliding of the user's body from the carriage. This shoulder stop and head rest assembly is removed to convert the apparatus into a flat table for stationary exercises. A first generally flat, padded, table top member is positionable between the carriage and one end of the frame in the plane of the top surface of the carriage. A second generally flat, padded table member is positionable between the carriage and the other end of the frame in the plane of the top of the carriage when the removable shoulder and head rest assembly is removed to prevent the carriage from moving and form a generally flat stationary table surface.
