Abstract:
An exercise device comprising:(a) a housing comprising a plurality of legs, each leg having a plurality of housing connectors along the leg; (b) a harness assembly adapted to be worn by a user within the housing, the harness assembly comprising a plurality of connectors; and (c) a plurality of elastic biasing members, the elastic biasing member comprising an elastic cord having a longitudinal length, and having a first end connected to the harness connector and a second end connected to the housing connector, thereby the biasing member forms a biasing angle b; said elastic biasing member further comprising a first end connector at the first end, a second end connector at the second end, and one or more additional connectors along its length; whereby the plurality of elastic biasing members apply variable, multi-directional elastic tension forces on the user, the forces being varied by adjusting the biasing angle b of the biasing member by attaching the biasing member second end to a housing connector at a different height along the leg.
