BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Stretching of the major leg muscles such as the quadriceps, inner thighs, and calves are important for many reasons. By way of example only, stretching of such muscles increases flexibility and reduces the risk of injury during strenuous use of the muscles incurred, for example, while playing sports or lifting weights.

In one embodiment, the device comprises a first support member, a second support member, a third support member, and a fourth support member. Each of the first, second, third and fourth support members. Each of the first, second, third and fourth support members further comprise first and second mounting portions. Each of the first, second, third, and fourth support members furher comprise a leg support member moveable by the person from said first mounting member to second mounting member. The first support member is engaged to the second support member. The second support member is engaged to the third support member. The third support member is engaged to the fourth support member.
