Each leg assembly includes a first leg including a pivot end and an opposite end, and a second leg including a first end slidingly received within the opposite end of the first leg and an opposite end for engaging a user's legs. First means for securing the second leg within the first leg are included so that movement of the second leg is prohibited. The handle assembly includes a first handle having a first and second side and a first and second end, and a second handle having a first and second end. The first end of the second handle is slidingly received within the second end of the first handle. The second end of the second handle may be grasped by a user when the leg stretching apparatus is in use. Second means for securing the second handle within the first handle are included so that movement of the second handle is prohibited. A pair of attachment means are utilized to secure the first leg of one leg assembly to the first side of the first handle, and to secure the first leg of the other leg assemble to the second side of the first handle. The attachment means are adapted for moving the opposite ends of each first leg generally away from the other in a general arc about the pivot ends of each first leg to an open position.
