Abstract: An exercise apparatus includes a clamping means for fixing the apparatus to a vertical surface such as a door or a wall, an elastic resistance band and a resistance harness. In a preferred embodiment, the clamping means is a lag screw having a hook portion adjacent one end. On end of the resistance band is attached to the hook portion of the lag screw and the other end is attached to the resistance harness. In another preferred embodiment, the apparatus further includes an adjustment for adjusting the vertical location of the resistance harness relative to the clamping means, and the clamping means is a U-shaped bracket. The adjustment means includes a belt having one end attached to the U-shaped bracket, and the free end threaded first through an adjustment buckle and then through a hook attached to one end of the resistance band. The other end of the resistance band is attached to the resistance harness.

Abstract: An exercise apparatus includes a clamping means for securing the apparatus to a conventional door, at least one elastic resistance band and a flexible resistance harness. The resistance harness includes a pair of arm slings made of a thin, relatively wide fabric material formed in a closed loop and defining an opening therethrough. The resistance harness further includes a connecting strap made of a thin, relatively narrow fabric material and having opposed ends. The opposed ends of the connecting strap are attached to the pair of arm slings such that the arm slings are connected by the connecting strap. The resistance harness further includes a chest strap made of a thin, relatively narrow fabric material and having opposed ends. The opposed ends of the chest strap are attached to the pair of arm slings opposite the connecting strap. The exercise apparatus is compact and lightweight and thus is convenient for individuals who travel frequently to use, transport and store.
