Abstract:
1. A portable leg exercise device, comprising: a support; a resiliently compressible central resistance element connected to the support and sized to fit between opposite thighs of an individual in a seated position, the central resistance element having sufficient compressibility to permit the individual to perform adductor thigh muscle movements to resiliently deform the central resistance element between the opposite thighs; resiliently compressible first and second outer resistance elements situated on opposite sides of the central resistance element; and first and second adjustor plates operatively connected to the first and second outer resistance elements, respectively, and movably connected to the support to permit relative movement of the first adjustor plate and the first outer resistance element towards and away from the central resistance element to establish sufficient spacing to receive a first of the thighs between the central and first outer resistance elements, and to permit relative movement of the second adjustor plate and the second outer resistance element towards and away from the central resistance element to receive a second of the thighs between the central and the second outer resistance elements, the outer resistance elements having sufficient compressibility to permit the individual to perform abductor thigh muscle movements to resiliently deform the outer resistance elements outwardly with respect to the opposite thighs.
