An exerciser which includes a belt shaped for encircling the waist of a user, and attachment thereabout in a selected orientation. A flexible line with handles attached to opposite ends is slidingly connected with the belt for longitudinal, reciprocating motion of the flexible line with respect to the belt. While jogging, the user can simultaneously exercise his upper body muscles by grasping the handles in opposite hands, and alternately pushing one handle forwardly, while simultaneously resisting rearward movement of the other handle, thereby isometrically exercising the user\s arm and upper body muscles.

An isometric exercise device for joggers and the like, comprising: a belt shaped for encircling the waist of a jogger; means for selectively retaining said belt securely about the waist of the jogger in a selected orientation; a flexible line being substantially inelastic first and second handles connected to opposite ends of said flexible line; means for slidingly receiving said flexible line generally along the longitudinal axis of said belt for longitudinal, reciprocating motion of said flexible line with respect to said belt; said receiving means including substantially rigid members that extend forwardly from positions that are generally in the direction of a user\s arms when said arms are extended forwardly in front of a user to support said handles forwardly and between the arms of the user, and thereby keep said flexible line out of contact with the arms of the jogger during isometric exercising therewith; means for detachably connecting said handles to said belt at opposite locations thereon which retains said handles and said attached flexible line in a storage position, out of contact with the legs of the jogger when the jogger is running, whereby during operation, the user detaches the handles from said belt, grasps said handles in opposite hands, and alternately pushes one handle forwardly, while simultaneously resisting rearward movement of the other handle, thereby isometrically exercising arm and upper body muscles at the same time as the lower body muscles of the jogger.
