ABSTRACT:
An exercising device is disclosed. The exercising device comprises an elongated body support member that will accommodate a person using the device in a prone, or sitting position. Rigid elongated end members extend along and are affixed to the end edges of the body supporting member. Rigid elongated stabilizer members are attached to the elongated end members with a flexible attachment device. The apparatus is suspended from a fixed anchor device, such as a wall, ceiling, or a stable frame, by flexible suspension device that are strung between the stabilizers and the anchor points. Elastic device are disposed in at least one of the suspension device whereby the suspension device can be elongated when a force is applied to the suspension device. The elastic device disposed in the suspension device thus allows the user to cause the body supporting member to move upwardly, downwardly and/or horizontally in response to certain forces that are applied to the apparatus. The forces can be supplied to the apparatus by means of muscular exertion of the user or by some external device such as a motor arrangement. The vertical and/or horizontal movement of the body supporting member with the user supported on such body supporting member as well as the muscular exertion of the user in applying pushing or pulling forces to the apparatus causing the elastic device to elongate and contract, allows the user to accomplish the desired exercise.
