Embodiment Construction
[0023]FIG. 1 illustrates an exercise apparatus 10 configured in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention. The exercise apparatus 10 is portable and has multiple purposes and uses. The exercise apparatus 10 enables a user to perform body exercises such as push-ups, pull-ups, dips, and the like. The exercise apparatus 10 includes a stable, flat rectangular-type base 12 that has several rigidly attached arch-shaped rods or bars 14 that provide anchor sites for stretch cords. Two vertical towers 18 are rigidly attached to the base 12 by welding and / or bolts. The vertical towers 18 are spaced apart on the base 12 so that enough room is provided for an individual to execute certain exercises while being positioned directly between the vertical towers 18. Each vertical tower 18 has holes 20 that are aligned with holes in the opposite vertical tower 18 through which a round straight cross bar can be inserted to create a level bridge from one vertical tower 18 to the other...

Abstract
Exercise apparatus having vertical towers rigidly attached to a base plate, including tower extensions that slide inside the tops of the vertical towers to increase their height, and further including base stabilizer leg extensions connected to the base plate to further stabilize the apparatus due to increased height. Base stabilizer mounts are secured to the top of the base plate for receiving base stabilizer legs that extend from the base plate to provide additional stability to the exercise apparatus during operation. Base stabilizer leg extensions can be included to extend the length of the base stabilizer legs. Each of the base stabilizer mounts are aligned along different geometric lines, and do not share any common geometric lines. Stabilizer arms also can be pivotally mounted to the corners of the base plate to provide additional directional stability for the exercise apparatus.
