Patent ID: 7101326

Claim:
An exerciser, comprising: a frame assembly including a base structure and an upright structure fixed to said base structure and extending upwardly therefrom, said base structure having downwardly facing surfaces for engaging a horizontal surface in supported relation thereon and being structured and arranged such that said exerciser is freestanding on the horizontal surface; an exercising mechanism carried by said frame assembly; upper user interconnecting structures coupled to said exercising mechanism and being selectively extensible by an exercise of a user from an operative position at an upper end portion of said upright structure; lower user interconnecting structures coupled to said exercising mechanism and being selectively extensible by an exercise of a user from an operative position at a lower portion of said upright structure; said exercising mechanism being structured and arranged to resilient resist the movement of the upper and lower user interconnecting structures away from said exercising mechanism; and a bench assembly being removably and pivotally coupled to said frame assembly such that said bench assembly may be removed from said frame assembly and be pivotally attached to said frame assembly, said bench assembly being selectively pivoted to said frame assembly at a pivot end of said bench assembly so that said bench assembly may be moved between an operable position wherein the user may utilize said bench assembly for support, and a stored, upright position wherein a free end of said bench assembly that is opposite to said pivot end is adjacent to said upright structure, wherein said bench assembly has a user supporting surface and a bench assembly support coupled to and extending from said user supporting surface, said bench assembly support being pivotably movable from a retracted position adjacent said user supporting surface and an extended position for supporting said bench assembly above the horizontal surface and also removing said bench assembly from said frame assembly.
