A second exercise station includes a foot support and at least one horizontally extending grasping bar. A third exercise station includes at least one foot stirrup and at least one horizontally extending bar which is in a spaced apart relationship to the foot support. A fourth exercise station has an upper grasping member having bars which angle in a rearward and downward direction and at least one lower grasping device which is positioned at an angle to the upper grasping device. A fifth exercise station includes a plurality of vertically extending bars. A sixth exercise station includes a plurality of angled overhead bars. Each station preferably includes a support platform having a first angled mat which angles upwardly from a midline and a second angled mat which angles upwardly in an opposite direction from the first angled mat. The support platforms are spaced apart from and are in a generally perpendicular direction to the exercise stations such that a person stands on each support platform to use each exercise station.
