Support device for performing floor exercise
View Patent ↗An exercise support having a base with a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end and a second end. Preferably, the base is curved to form generally an S-shape. Attached to the bottom surface is a support member. A narrowed or head section is formed at the second end of the base. Preferably a pair of handles extend outwardly from the narrowed section for gripping.
1. An exercise support, comprising:
a base having a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end, and a second end, wherein the base curves downwardly at the first end and upwardly at the second end;
a narrowed section of the base at the second end for providing head support;
a neck support directly connected to the top surface of the narrowed section;
a convex support member attached to the bottom surface of the base and having an apex; and
a pair of ridges aligned and extending transversely across the top surface of the base and are separated by an open area.
2. The support of claim 1 wherein a pair of handles extend outwardly from the narrowed section.
3. The support of claim 1 wherein a layer of material is attached to at least a portion of the top surface of the base.
4. The support of claim 1 wherein the support member lays transversely across the bottom surface of the base closer to the first end than the second end.
5. The support of claim 1 wherein a flange extends away from the base at an outer perimeter for gripping.
6. The support of claim 1 wherein the ridges are positioned near a midpoint between the first and second ends.
7. The support of claim 1 wherein the ridges taper downwardly at ends near the open area.
8. An exercise support, comprising:
a base having a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end, and a second end;
a narrowed section of the base at the second end for providing head support;
a neck support directly connected to the top surface of the narrowed section;
a convex support member attached to the bottom surface of the base and having an apex; and
a pair of ridges aligned and extending transversely across the top surface of the base and are separated by an open area;
wherein a plurality of pads are attached to the narrowed section.
9. An exercise support, comprising:
a base having a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end, and a second end;
a narrowed section of the base at the second end for providing head support;
a neck support directly connected to the top surface of the narrowed section;
a convex support member attached to the bottom surface of the base and having an apex; and
a pair of ridges aligned and extending transversely across the top surface of the base and are separated by an open area;
wherein an apex of the neck support is lower than an apex of the pair of ridges.
10. The support of claim 9 wherein the neck support is perpendicular to the pair of ridges.
