  • the person contracts his or her abdomen and at the same time raises his or her upper back and brings his or her chest closer to the knees while bending at the abdomen. Then the person lowers his or her back to the flat surface and repeats the movement up to a desired amount of repetitions.
  • This motion causes the abdominal muscles to contract and extend and repeated contraction and extension improves strength of the muscles and expends calories stored in body.
  • US 6,186,926 B1 discloses a seated abdominal exercise machine comprising a frame, a seat mounted to the frame, a backrest attached to the frame rearwardly to the seat, arm and head supports, handles, and a plurality of transfer members which are pivotally interconnected. A user sits on the seat provided and reclines on the backrest while pulling handles located overhead downwards to perform abdominal exercises. The plurality of interconnected transfer members work to allow a full range of motion for performing the abdominal exercise.
  • US 5,577,987 discloses an abdominal exercise device being a singular frame structure having head and arm supports, handles and rocker arcuates for the device to pivot back and forth during an abdominal exercise.
  • the device is placed on a ground surface and a user rests his head and arms on the supports while lying on a surface and the device assists abdominal exercise by supporting head and arms of the user while the user performs the exercise.

  • Prior art devices only assist in performing abdominal crunches which does not completely mitigate the above set of problems. Furthermore, fitness experts recommend that core region of body which include upper and lower abdominal regions, lower back muscles and pelvic muscles should be exercised for balanced strength and functionality. Having a balanced core exercise promotes good posture, reduces injury, and improves the effectiveness of other exercises such as weightlifting.
  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for performing abdominal exercises, the apparatus comprising a frame for providing a stable base for operation of the apparatus, a seat for a user to rest onto, a resistance adjustment means for adjusting level of resistance for operation of the apparatus and a joint mechanism for bearing loads and providing rotational movement, wherein the resistance adjustment means is operable to resist movement of the joint mechanism located at centre point of the frame, characterized in that an arm connected to the joint mechanism located at centre point of the frame is rotatable at centre point of the frame by means of the joint mechanism and the seat is linearly connected to the arm and is linearly traversable about the arm and the seat is further rotatably connected to the arm.

  • This means of providing resistance is preferred as the user can instantaneously increase or decrease resistance of exercise performed on the apparatus by squeezing or releasing the lever (20a) as compared to other types of mechanism such as a dial-adjustment mechanism which requires repeated twists of a dial to increase or decrease resistance.
  • Other means of providing resistance include using brakes with a dial-adjusted mechanism (not illustrated) wherein the brake is moved closer to or further from the joint mechanism by turning the dial. Turning the dial to cause the brake to tighten around the joint mechanism will increase resistance of activity while turning the dial to cause the brake to loosen around the joint mechanism will decrease resistance of the activity. Still another means of providing resistance include using a dial adjusted mechanism to move a magnet closer or further to the joint mechanism (not illustrated). Moving the magnet closer to the joint mechanism creates a resistive magnetic force between the magnet and joint mechanism which resists movement of the joint mechanism without physically contacting the joint mechanism. Moving the magnet further from the joint mechanism lessens the resistive magnetic force. It is envisioned that still other means of providing resistance can be used without departing from the scope of the invention.
