Patent attributes
An adapter device for use with an exercise bench for weight lifting is disclosed. The device includes first and second lateral arms, spaced transversely from each other and arranged externally side by side to the respective lateral edges of the exercise bench, and a main resting platform. The lateral arms and the platform define a supporting surface of the subject's body substantially “U”-or “C”-like shaped integrally adaptable in height and width to the exercise bench. The elevation legs of the supporting surface are configured to support the lateral arms and the platform in an elevated position with respect to a walking plane and substantially placed side by side to said bench surface. In use, the supporting surface receives a lateral part of the subject's torso at the lateral arms and the lower limbs of the latter at the platform.
