ABSTRACT:
A step exercise bench includes a platform and has ratcheting support members providing for adjustment of the height of the platform. The platform has opposite ends with a pawl mounted proximate thereto. A pair of pivotally connected support members are disposed below the platform between the ends. Each support member has ratchet steps formed thereon. The pawls selectively engage ratchet steps. The support members have floor members extending below the ratchet means, for resting on a support surface such as a floor. Springs urge the pawls into selected steps formed in the support members.
