Abstract: A body weight trainer fitness device allows for the strengthening and normalization of functional movement patterns for those who are not otherwise able. The device accomplishes this with the use of resilient strength bands which are provided in the form of heavy duty rubber bands of varying widths. The bands are selectively attached to a frame via selectively-moveable band holders. The device may then be used to offload the user's weight and thus decrease resistance or it can be used to increase the resistance of an exercise. The bands can be oriented to offload the user's body weight allowing a user to exercise with proper form. Once normal functional movement can take place without the bands, the device may be configured to utilize the bands as resistance to improve these functional motion patterns.
