An exercise device particularly adapted for an isometric workout of lower body muscles includes a seating plate. Releasably attached to a front wall of the seating plate is a fixed bar. Then, pivotally attached respectively to top and bottom ends of the fixed bar are inner ends of upper and lower movable support members. On an outer end of the upper support member is a fastener. This fastener includes a pin for selective insertion in one of a set of spaced apart holes in an outer end of the lower support member to join the member ends. Finally, a sleeve-type fastener of a leg engaging member is slidably disposed on the upper support member. Leg engaging member positioning is secured by a further pin insertable in one of a set of holes in an outer end of the upper support member. The leg engaging member includes a pair of padded ends piece spaced apart by a transversely positioned middle padded piece. Contact discs of the end pieces abut the middle padded piece. For use the seating plate is placed on a chair, for example. A user then sits of the plate and positions his legs on the adjustably positional leg engaging member to undertake isometric leg flexion, leg extension, leg abduction, and leg adduction exercises.
