ABSTRACT:
Methods for strengthening the musculature of the abdomen, upper legs and back. One method primarily consists of isometric contraction of the abdominal musculature while the operator is seated in a specific position in which the forearms are generally orthogonal to the arms, the arms are generally parallel to the thoracic spine, the legs are extended, the hip is flexed, the thoracic and lumbar spine are slightly flexed. The operator contracts the abdominal musculature while pulling the hands on a tensioned mechanism. Strengthening of the abdominal musculature is achieved by moving the abdomen against a resilient stop. Stationary and portable versions of the necessary apparatus are disclosed.
