A flexible band (48) connected between the base and the lever provides adjustable resistance for pushing or pulling exercises. A handle bar assembly is pivotally connected to and extending upwardly from the lever.    USE - For performing various exercises such as sit up, lateral side bend, squat, lower back extension, lunge, biceps curls, triceps extension, row, up right row, press, and calf raises.    ADVANTAGE - Enables the user to perform core body exercises such as a sit up, a lateral side bend, a squat, and a lower back extension with a variable resistance from a standing position, to specifically exercise the upper and lower abdomen, obliques, lower back, buttocks plus the quadriceps with just four simple movements without putting undue strain on the neck, back or tail bone.
