ABSTRACT:
The exercising apparatus disclosed is for particular use for th exercising and stretching of the leg and abdominal muscles. The apparatus allows for an upper body support to be pivoted about a horizontal axis while the feet support is slidable along an inclined slope. The resistance to such movements is variable depending on which particular muscles are to be stretched or worked. The resistance can take the form of a stack of weights or a braking system on the movement. The apparatus is able to be used with the user either resting his chest or back on the upper body support and with the inclined slope being able to be varied from substantially horizontal to approximately 70.degree..
