Apparatus for guiding and supporting users to maintain correct postures during squatting exercise

Abstract

A portable and foldable apparatus supporting a user in maintaining correct posture during squatting is provided. The apparatus comprises a pair of footplates, a pair of telescoping arms, a stance pivot knob that adjusts angular distance between a first telescopic arm and a second telescopic arm, a knee stopper knob for each of the pair of footplates, a knee stopper that includes at least a first bar, a second bar, and a third bar. The first bar restricts forward knee movement of the user during squatting. The second bar restricts inward knee movement of the user during squatting. The knee stopper knob allows forward or backward movement of the third bar to adjust a horizontal distance between the first bar and an end portion of the corresponding footplate and a vertical distance between the first bar and the corresponding footplate.
