ABSTRACT:
There is provided by this invention an apparatus that can be placed on a flat surface and used conveniently for exercising the human foot under a variety of conditions. Beneath a support for the foot is positioned an element that affords pivotable relationship between the support and the flat surface, and fixed to the support there is at least one means for receiving an attachment for varying the conditions, such as the weight and the angle of use during the exercising. In other words, the attachments subject the foot during the exercising to such conditions as the amount of force or the amount of tilting that the foot must apply in order to activate the exercising device.
The support for the foot can be in the form of a flat plate, generally made of wood or a plastic, underneath of which is positioned a rounded or ball-like member to allow for the said pivotable relationship at different positions. On the plate are receptacles, generally internally threaded which afford means for placing the said attachments, such as weights or levers, on the plate. The attachments may also be of such size and shape that effect tilting of the foot, and different attachments may be simultaneously attached to the apparatus.
