Abstract

A portable spotting apparatus includes a pair of support assemblies positioned a distance from each other to define a spotting area for a user. The support assemblies each have an upright member that includes a top portion coupled with a pulley and a bottom portion configured to rest on a floor surface. A pair of legs each have an upper end coupled with an intermediate portion of the upright member and a lower end configured to rest on the floor surface on opposing lateral sides of the upright member. At least one cord is configured to extend over the pulley and to couple with a harness for spotting the user in the spotting area. A cross member is coupled between lower regions of the support assemblies to maintain the distance between the support assemblies.
