ABSTRACT:
A reversible, portable leg exercising apparatus includes an inclined guideway supported on a frame. The guideway has upper and lower ends. A pedal is mounted for relative sliding movement along the guideway. A first reversing roller is provided at the upper end of the guideway and a second reversing roller is provided at the lower end. An elastic cord provides resistance to movement of the pedal. The elastic cord is selectively connectable in one of two positions. In a seated exercise position a first end of the cord is held by the pedal, an intermediate portion extends over the first reversing roller and a second end of the cord is held by the second reversing roller. In a reclined exercise position the first end of the cord is held by the first reversing roller, the intermediate portion of the cord extends over the second reversing roller and the second end of the cord is held by the pedal.
