An aspect of the invention involves a method of using a collapsible exercise device including providing a collapsible exercise device; positioning a first end of an adjustable incline at a desired height with respect to a vertical support member so that the adjustable incline is at a desired inclination; moving first and second combination pulley-support and pull-up bars to a desired position; moving first and second pulleys connected to the first and second combination pulley-support and pull-up bars to a desired location; and moving a support platform along the adjustable incline through cable movement through the first and second pulleys on the combination pulley-support and pull-up bars.

Method of using a collapsible exercise device

A collapsible exercise device includes a vertical support member, first and second sets of rails pivotally connected to each other, and a strut interconnecting the vertical support member and the rails. A user support platform engages the rails. First and second combination pulley-support and pull-up bars are pivotally connected to the first end of the first set of rails for movement between at least a substantially vertical position and a substantially horizontal position. First and second pulleys are slidably connected to bars and receive a cable, which is also connected to the user support platform. The exercise device is foldable such that the vertical support member, the rails and the strut are substantially parallel to each other; and the rails are extendable from the vertical support member and are alignable such that the user support platform is rollable along the first and second pulleys.

Exercise device

Exercise apparatus

An exercise device is provided as a set of inner rails pivotally connected to a slide bar adjustably supported by a vertical support member and a set of outer rails pivotally connected to the set of inner rails at a rail pivot point with a strut pivotally connected to the vertical support member and the rail pivot point. A user support platform is rollable along the inner and outer rails when the inner and outer rails are extended from the vertical support member. Pulley means are connected to the vertical support member and a connector means extends through the pulley means to the user support platform allowing an exerciser positioned on the user support platform to propel the exerciser along the inner and outer rails. The exercise device may include a foot rest at one end of the outer rails allowing for additional exercising. The exercise device may also include a foot harness attached to the connector means to allow for additional exercise use. The exercise device may also include a footholder or pull up bars attachable to the inner rails to allow for additional exercising use. When in non-use, the exercise device is foldable to allow for easy storage.
