1. An Exercise Apparatus comprising:
- a. A first track assembly comprising at least one track set in a first arm;
b. A second track assembly comprising at least one track set in a second arm;
c. A first handgrip assembly slidably mounted in said first track assembly;
d. A second handgrip assembly slidably mounted in said second track assembly;
e. Said first arm and said second arm are hingedly connected to a base whereby said first arm and said second arm are laterally disposed in a horizontal line facing the user;
f. A means of adjustably inclining the outer edges of said first and second arms;
g. Pulley-type wheels are provided at said outer edges of said first and second arms;
h. A first means of resistance selectively removably attachable to the first outer edge of said base, passing over said pulley-type wheels at said outer edge of said first arm, and selectively removably attachable to the outer edge of said first handgrip assembly, a second means of resistance selectively removably attachable to the second outer edge of said base, passing over said pulley-type wheels at said outer edge of said second arm, and selectively removably attachable to the outer edge of said second handgrip assembly, and a third means of resistance selectively removably attachable between said first and second handgrip assemblies, to alternately oppose lateral movement away from the center or away from the outer edges of said first and second arms.

Abstract
A Prone Fly Exercise Apparatus comprising a hinged base portion, two inclinable arms containing parallel track means hingedly attached to the base, two handgrips that are each slidably mounted on the parallel tracks and connected to adjustable tension cords, a means for raising the parallel track containing arms to provide an incline, and a means for adjusting the tension cords. For the first exercise, the adjustable tension cords are placed between each edge of the apparatus and each handgrip. For the second exercise, the adjustable tension cords are placed between the handgrips, attaching the handgrips to each other. The apparatus is compactly foldable and easily stored.
