Abstract

Abstract An exercising device made up of a handle and a staff fixed to the handle and extending perpendicular thereto. A first eye having an elongated threaded part fixed to it extending through a hole in the staff adjacent to handle. A second eye is interlinked with the first eye and has an elongated end passing through the intermediate part of a U-shaped pulley receiving member and a nylon member in the U-shaped member the cord passes around a pulley in the u-shape member and terminates at each end in a loop. Each loop has a plate-like member supported in it by means of a notch at each end that receives the cord forming the loop. A yoke is positioned on the side of the U-shaped pulley receiving member that threadably receives a member which engages the wheel when the latter is rotating.
