ABSTRACT:
An exercise assembly 10 includes a support platform 12 for resting upon a floor and an arcuate section 14 extends upwardly and rearwardly from the platform 12 to define a storage space 16 between the platform 12 and the arcuate section 14. And a foot section 18, comprising an intermediate portion 24 and a toe portion 26, extends from the arcuate section 14 to a distal end 20 for resting upon a floor in a use position. The assembly is characterized by a first pivot joint 22 interconnecting the sections 14 and 18 for folding the foot section 18 into the storage space 16 in a storage position. A second pivot joint 28 interconnects the toe portion 26 and the intermediate portion 24 for folding the toe portion 26 under the intermediate portion 24 and into the storage space 16 in the storage position. Slats 36 on the intermediate portion 24 and on the arcuate section 14 are disposed next to one another at a break position 38 spaced a distance (d) from the first connection 22 in the direction of the support platform 12 for providing a storage opening 40 to receive objects to be stored between the stringers 30 and 32 of the arcuate section 14 and the intermediate portion 24. A shelf 44 extends transverse to the slats 36 for supporting objects stored between the stringers 30, 32 and 34 in the storage position.
