Abstract
A reclining chair or the like provides a set of base-mounted extendable arms that move forward as the chair reclines, and the leg rest extends to brace the chair against forward tipping, for example, if weight is applied to the leg rest without the counterbalance of an occupant. When the leg rest retracts, the arms pull back to reduce tripping hazard.
