[0060] The foot slider 200 is separated from the apparatus main body 100 by a predetermined distance, and the distance is maintained using the locking portion 420.

[0061] The protruding member 520 of the tube band body 500 is engaged with the protruding groove portion 221a, the hanging portion 530 is hung on the toes of the feet to maintain the tension, and the exercise can be performed while alternately pulling the left and right feet toward the abdomen.

[0062] The mountain climber movement of FIG. 7 is performed.

[0063] The holding handle 110 can be arranged in parallel along the longitudinal direction of the apparatus main body 100 (the solid line arrangement in FIG. 2). The drawing shows that the user is supporting the upper surface of the apparatus main body 100. As a more enhanced exercise form, it is also possible to utilize it as a kind of push-up bar with the user holding the holding handle 110.

[0064] The user can support the inclined block 220 of the foot slider 200. At this time, the user inserts the tip of the toe into the nose insertion port 211 (see FIG. 1), and the entire sole of the foot can be stably supported on the block tread 221. Thereby, it is possible to perform the abdominal muscle exercise while alternately moving the left and right feet.

[0065] With such an operation configuration, it has a relatively small size and high space utilization. It can be used not only for performing general push-ups and mountain climber movements, but also for abdominal muscle strengthening exercises such as leg raises and knee pull-ups.

[0066] In addition, the exercise intensity can be adjusted by utilizing the elastic forces of the foot slider 200 and the tube band body 500, enabling customized exercises for each user.
