Abstract:
1. An exercise device comprising: a first elastic strap portion having a first elongate portion and a second elongate portion joined together along a first longitudinal axis at a plurality of first connections to define a first plurality of loops; a second elastic strap portion having a third elongate portion and a fourth elongate portion joined together along a second longitudinal axis at a plurality of second connections to define a second plurality of loops; an anchoring device; an elastic resistance tube having a suitable grasping means coupled to at least one end, wherein the elastic resistance tube is mounted onto at least one of the first elastic strap portion or the second elastic strap portion and configured to provide elastic resistance through extension and retraction of the elastic resistance tube by way of the grasping means; and a fabric sock attached to a back side of the at least one of the first strap portion or the second strap portion, wherein the elastic resistance tube is run through the fabric sock to expose the end having the grasping means; and wherein the first elastic strap portion and the second elastic strap portion are coupled to one another and the anchoring device is configured to hold or secure the coupled first and second elastic strap portions such that the first plurality of loops and the second plurality of loops extend a predetermined length substantially symmetrically away from the anchoring device; and wherein an elastic elongation of the first elastic strap portion along the first longitudinal axis and the second elastic strap portion along the second longitudinal axis is limited to between approximately 40% and approximately 80% of the predetermined length.
