ABSTRACT:
A step bench for performing repetitive stairstep exercises has adjustable-height support members and a retractable floor mat. The adjustable-height support members are configured as telescoping cylinders, with vertically extending stair-like slots formed in the wall of one of the cylinders, and corresponding pegs attached to the adjacent wall of the other cylinder to extend slidably through the slots. The height of the support members is adjusted by rotating the cylinders relative to each other to move the pegs from one "stair" of the slot to an upper or lower "stair". A retractable floor mat assembly comprises a roller mounted beneath the bench platform to left and right flanges depending from the ends of the platform, with a mat wound about the roller in a manner similar to a windowshade.
