An exercise platform for use with a resilient exercise band includes a body formed of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. The exercise platform includes a pair of intersecting channels one side and a support surface on another side upon which a user stands. When the platform is in use, the channels are spaced away from a floor surface, and are dimensioned to allow a portion of the exercise band to be retained therein, as the user performs an exercise movement employing the exercise band while he or she stands on the platform.
