Abstract

The invention provides for an upper-body exercise device (10) comprising a pair of reciprocal support members (18) for providing support to respective limbs of a user's body, and at least one of which support members is arranged to be engaged by a user's hand, a pair of support members being arranged for reciprocal movement over respective support means extending outwardly on a substantially common line from either side of a central region of the device to respective outer regions thereof; and the support members further being arranged to be moved by a user in a reciprocal manner between the said central region and the said lateral regions as part of an exercise routine.
