Abstract
An improved body-exercising device has a pair of dollies supported for movement along two guideways and permits a user to stand with one foot on each dolly and laterally separate the dollies to exercise the body. Foam pads are affixed to the dollies to receive the user's feet and to afford the freedom of movement necessary to the exercise while also affording control of the dolly. The device further includes an adjustable connection fixing the distance between the guideways and preventing their lateral movement. A compressible rolling surface may be provided on the guideways for use with rollable dollies to increase the rolling resistance encountered by the dollies.
