Abstract

A leg stretching apparatus comprises two handgrip placement straps which are connected to a foot support member. Handgrips are threaded onto the handgrip placement strap which are held in place by adjustable clips. The adjustable clips allow the handgrips to be adjusted to proper length. In operation, an individual sits on the floor in a "pike" position, grasping the handgrips in stages to stretch the legs and lower back.
