Abstract
Dispositif d'exercice permettant d'exercer les muscles adducteurs et abducteurs des cuisses, dans lequel est prévu un organe transversal (10) que l'on peut placer au-dessus ou au-dessous des cuisses ou des genoux, afin qu'il s'étende en travers de ces derniers. Des organes terminaux (11, 12) sont prévus pour s'étendre vers le bas, à l'extérieur des jambes, de sorte que l'on eput alors utiliser le dispositif soit pour des exercices dans lesquels les jambes se déplacent extérieurement, soit placé entre les cuisses ou les genous afin d'offrir une résistance au mouvement intérieur des cuisses. Dans le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention des moyens (16, 17, 21) sont prévus pour régler l'espacement ou la tension entre les organes terminaux (11, 12) pouvant être sollicités par un ressort (18), de manière à offrir une plus grande résistance à mesure que le dispositif est déplacé vers l'intérieur ou vers l'extérieur.Exercise device for exercising the adductor and abductor muscles of the thighs, in which is provided a transverse organ (10) which can be placed above or below the thighs or knees, so that it s spread across these. Terminal members (11, 12) are provided to extend downwards, outside the legs, so that the user can then use the device either for exercises in which the legs move externally, or placed between the thighs or knees to provide resistance to the inner movement of the thighs. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, means (16, 17, 21) are provided for adjusting the spacing or the tension between the end members (11, 12) which can be stressed by a spring (18), so to provide greater resistance as the device is moved inward or outward.
