The exercising force is to be transmitted through the door against the door jam. The exercising device is attached to the door by means of an attaching bracket assembly which is removably secured to the door. Between the attaching bracket assembly and a handle assembly is located an elastic, elongated stretchable cord. The cord can be either solid in cross-section or can be tubular. Connected to the handle assembly is an adjustable strap which is to be located about portions of the user's body during the performing of certain exercises. The handle assembly includes a cushiony pad which is to abut portions of the user's body during the performing of certain exercises as to provide a soft cushiony surface. The elongated stretchable cord is almost entirely located between an enclosing tube.
