Abstract
An exercise device is constructed and arranged to be used by a user to perform multiple exercises, which exercises utilize the user's weight as resistance. The exercise device comprises a pair of manually movable structures including U-shaped rocker elements having downwardly facing convex surfaces constructed and arranged to be supported on a horizontal surface. The pair of movable structures include a pair of hand grips which are to be moved by the user when supported by a user support structure connected between the pair of movable structures. Movement of the hand grips moves the user support structure disposed adjacent the horizontal surface upwardly from the horizontal surface enabling the user to resist such movement and manually resist a return movement by the supported weight of the user on the user support structure.
