Exercise apparatus
First Claim
1. Exercise apparatus in the form of a kit of parts, whether assembled or not, which comprises at least a first major component provided with engagement means in at least three alternative sites thereon, and a second minor component provided at a site thereon with engagement means complementary to those on the major component, said engagement means being detachably interengageable with one another in alternative mutual orientations of the components wherein:
- the major and minor components are each substantially symmetrical about a shared, normally-vertical plane of symmetry, which in use also accommodates the user'"'"'s body axis;
in overall outline in said shared normally-vertical plane of symmetry that accommodates the user'"'"'s body axis, the major and minor component are each generally wedge-shaped, the opposed, wedge-forming sides thereof subtending the same angle θ
in each component; and
said complementary engagement means provided on said first major component and said second minor component are in the form of male and female members;
such that in use, the resultant assemblage can be arranged and rearranged at will to assume each of a range of alternative configurations comprising bench, chair and incline configurations.
