The exercise device is adapted to simultaneously exercise all of the limbs of a human being by subjecting them to the combined tensions induced by gravity in combination with mechanical spring bias. Both the arms and legs of a user are caused to move about a universal pivot against spring tension while being held outstretched and subjected to the force of gravity. Pivotal arm exercise frames are provided which are adjustable to accommodate various human arm lengths and also angularly adjustable to subject the arms of an exerciser to different stresses. Similarly, a leg exercise assembly is provided which is adaptable for persons of varying heights and leg lengths and which is angularly adjustable relative to a vertical plane to vary the abdominal tension experienced by a user.
