Abstract: The exercise apparatus using magnetism to augment the gravitational field of the earth has a platform made of ferromagnetic material which is magnetized by an electromagnet. The exerciser wears a full-body chain mail suit and stands on the platform while performing exercise activity so that the magnetic field created by the electromagnet pulls on the chain mail suit, The electromagnet is connected to a variable current power source, and the circuitry may include either a trimmer potentiometer for continuously varying the strength of the magnetic field, or a computer with software for entering and controlling the strength of the magnetic field as a multiple of the strength of the gravitational field. The apparatus is installed in a permanent structure, or movably mounted for portable use in the home. Spacecraft utilization is also anticipated in shielded room.
