Abstract

The invention is directed to an exercise apparatus for use in stretching. The exercise apparatus includes a compact construction that is mechanically easy to operate and allows users to gently stretch, without assistance from others. The exercise apparatus includes a tubular member and a shaft member that is sized to slidably insert into the tubular member to form a telescoping structure that extends in a longitudinal direction. A base is provided having a substantially planar shape that includes an upper surface adapted to receive a force applied in a downward direction. The force is provided to supplement an initial force received through the connector.
