ABSTRACT:
An exercise device including an upper segment secured via an articulating joint to the upper body or arm and a lower segment which is slidably connected to the upper segment. The lower segment includes a hand support or hand grip. The attachment of the upper segment to the body is done via an articulating joint so that the upper segment may be freely moved in an arc of approximately sixty degrees, front to back. The joint provides a selectable amount of friction, thereby enhancing the intensity of the exercise. The upper segment is slidably and rotatably connected to the lower segment allowing the lower segment to be twisted and moved rectilinearly relative to the upper segment. The lower segment is terminated at the bottom in an elastomeric pole tip for absorbing shock. The lower segment pole tip may also incorporate a spring.
