Neuromuscular Activation Vertical Exercise Device and Method

A vertical exercise device comprising:

• a plurality of foot supports, each foot support having a support surface inclined at an angle, the support surface being substantially flat and configured to contact the ball of a user's foot during use;
• and
• a handlebar assembly having at least an upper handle configuration and a lower handle configuration, the handlebar assembly configured to keep a user's wrist within a safe range of motion during use;
• wherein the plurality of foot supports are mounted in a first plane running parallel to the vertical axis of the device;
• wherein the position of each foot support in the first plane is independently adjustable;
• wherein the horizontal displacement each foot support relative to the vertical axis of the device is independently adjustable;
• wherein the depth of the support surface of each foot support is independently adjustable;
• wherein the handlebar assembly is mounted in a second plane running parallel to the vertical axis of the device;
• wherein the position of the handlebar assembly in the second plane is independently adjustable;
• wherein the horizontal displacement of the second plane relative to the vertical axis of the device is independently adjustable;
• wherein the first plane and the second plane are independently adjustable relative to each other.
