Patent attributes
An exercise apparatus for use in for example a leg exercise comprises a pair of tracks extending in a respective longitudinal direction, each carrying in sliding movement therealong a limb receiving member for supporting a limb of the user. The tracks are interconnected by a bridging portion comprising a hinge which defines a central folding axis parallel to the respective longitudinal direction of each track, so that the tracks can be moved between an operating position in which the folding axis is located transversely between the tracks and a storage position in which the tracks are disposed so that upper load bearing surfaces are oriented so as to face one another. The apparatus also includes a resiliently deformable elastic band defining a limit in the range of sliding movement of each limb receiving member along the track so as to apply gradual resistance to the limb receiving member upon contact with same.
