Abstract: An exercise device is disclosed that operates with a swinging door to assist one in doing situps and related exercises. The device has a pair of wedge stops and strap means are secured to the stops and extended therebetween. Adjustment connection means are formed in the strap means to allow the separation of the strap means into two separate pieces each secured to one of the stops, and further to allow for adjustment of the overall length of the strap means. The strap means is formed of an inelastic but flexible material possibly 20 to 40 inches long and 1 to 3 inches wide. Each stop has a base surface and a wedge surface angled from one another between 25 and 50 degrees, being between 1.5 and 2.5 inches high at the end surface. The stops fit on one side of the door, with the base surface on the floor and the wedge surface against the bottom of the door and with the strap means passing under the door.
