Abstract

An abdominal exercise device including an upper abdominal lever member having engagement ends and an intermediate section for contacting a body of an individual and a lower abdominal lever member having engagement ends and an intermediate section for contacting a body of an individual with spring-biased resistance hubs releasably locked into said engagement ends of said upper lever member and lower lever member engagement ends, wherein operation of the lever members when rotated about the resistance hubs provides a scissor-like movement of respective upper and lower lever members connected to the resistance hub. The resistance hubs include a plurality of interchangeable resistance hub pairs of varying resistance.
