Abstract

The gymnastic equipment described herein is characterized by a rectangular platform which is preferably about 30-50 cm wide and about 75-150 cm long. Vertical supporting members are arranged at the four comers of the platform. A resilient elongated rope-like member is looped around the four supporting members and is height-adjustable. The height of the rope can be set so as to enable a combination of muscle exercises with simultaneous aerobic and/or choreographic workouts free of interruption. Particular skills for fixing the resilient rope on arms or legs are not necessary during the sequence of exercises. A securing device is attached to each supporting member to retain the member at the set height.
