Abstract: A training apparatus is provided for training the back musculature of a user and includes a knee part to support one or both knees of the user and an arm part or hand part that is arranged relative to the knee part in such a way that the back region of the user, upon bracing of the knee against the knee part and bracing of the arms or hands against the arm part or hand part, is aligned in a substantially horizontal position along a longitudinal axis of the training apparatus, wherein the knee part and arm part or hand part are thus arranged below the back region of the user. The arm part or hand part for both arms or hands can be configured to be separately movable.

Abstract: The invention concerns an exercise apparatus, especially for exercising the back musculature of a user (10) with a support surface (110) to accommodate the user (10) along the longitudinal axis (30). The reclining area (112) of the support surface (110) is largely formed by a number of transverse elements (120, 120a) arranged in succession on the longitudinal axis (30), which accommodates the user (10) preferably in the prone position, the transverse elements (120, 120a) being mounted to pivot around the longitudinal axis (30) to execute a see-saw movement.
