US 2003/0114278 A1 · Arm, leg, and body stretching device

Abstract

The present invention is a modular component leg, arm, and body-stretching device. It includes a main winding component having a handle and at least one cable functionally connected to and capable of being wound toward the handle. The handle contains a one directional winding mechanism and a trigger, wherein when the trigger is depressed, the cable advances toward the handle. The handle also has a release mechanism to release the cable from the winding mechanism. The main winding component has an auxiliary component attachment at one end thereof for attachment, directly or indirectly, of a foot or hand auxiliary component. The foot auxiliary component is for leg and body exercise, and may be a loop or may be a rigid base for placement of a foot thereon, with a foot securing mechanism to hold a foot in place. The hand auxiliary component is for arm and body exercises, and includes a handle for placement of a hand thereon and has at least one main winding component attachment mechanism for attachment to the cable. There may also be a yoke for connection between the main component and the auxiliary components.
