ABSTRACT:
An exercise apparatus comprising a foot receiving plate, a pivoting support and a base. The foot receiving plate includes a strap for the user's foot, a ball joint adjacent and on the bottom of its heel end for securing the foot receiving plate to the pivoting support, and a spring connecting the toe end of the foot receiving plate to the pivoting support. The ball joint permits the foot receiving plate to pivot laterally and transversely with respect to the pivoting support, and the spring biases the foot receiving plate towards the pivoting support. Additionally, a removable ball below the toe end of the foot receiving plate allows for radial pivoting. The pivoting support is pivotably mounted via a hinge to the base beneath the toe end of the foot receiving plate, thereby permitting the foot receiving plate and pivoting support to pivot away from the base.
