(57) A gymnastic device in the form of a swing or trapeze. Substantially horizontal support
means (10) are raised from the ground by generally vertical support means (11). Extendible
lengthways hands support means (19, 30) are mounted at, or near, one end of the hands
support means (19) perpendicularly to the horizontal support means (10) in a manner
allowing angular rotation about the horizontal support means, the lengthways hands
support means (19, 30) being provided with resistive means (70) arranged in a manner
allowing reciprocal motion of the user in an upward forward direction. The hands support
means (19, 30) are also provided with locking means (20; 52; 68) adapted to engage
the horizontal support means (10) thereby providing a fixed support at a desired position
about the horizontal support means. Extendible lengthways legs support means (17,
82) are mounted at, or near, one end of the legs support means (17) perpendicularly
to the horizontal support means (10) in a manner allowing rotation about the horizontal
support means (10). At, or near, the opposite end of the legs support means (17, 82),
foot retention means (84 to 93) are provided, and the legs support means are further
provided with resistive means (78) arranged in a manner allowing reciprocal motion
of the user in an upward forward direction.
