ABSTRACT:
A multipurpose exercise device comprises a pair of side members each having a concave surface adapted to engage one of the thighs of a user. Each of the side members is supported in sliding engagement by a corresponding frame and operatively attached to a resilient member that urges the side member toward the open side of the concave surface. The frames can be fixed in various orientations. In one orientation of the frames, the side members face each other with the concave surfaces both opening inward. The user's legs are placed between the side members and moved apart against the urging of the resilient members to exercise the thigh abductor muscles. IN another orientation, the frames are oriented so that the side member face away from each other with the concave surfaces both opening outward. The device is placed between the user's legs and the user moves his/her legs together against the urging of the resilient members to exercise the thigh adductor muscles. In yet another orientation, the frames are oriented so that the side members are parallel and facing the same direction. The device in this configuration may be laid over the user's thighs with one side member resting on each thigh. A hip flexor exercise may be performed by lifting one leg at a time against the corresponding side member or the muscles of the abdomen may be exercised by bending forward to move the frames against the side members.
