A pair of mirror-image thigh restrainers are mounted to the platform at the opposite sides thereof, the restrainers being movable in opposite directions between upright positions wherein they curve toward one another above the platform so that they can engage over the thighs of a person sitting on the platform and a stowed position wherein the thigh restrainers extend down below the platform.
