An exercise device for the upper torso of a user that includes a base, a plurality of wheel assemblies, and a handle assembly. The base is equilateral triangular-shaped and has an uppermost surface and a lowermost surface. The handle assembly is swivelly positioned in the uppermost surface of the base so as to allow the handle assembly to achieve a desired hand position relative to the plurality of wheel assemblies. The plurality of wheel assemblies are three and in combination with the base being equilateral triangular-shaped, prevent rocking. Each wheel assembly is rotatably mounted in the lowermost surface of the base.

The device as defined in claim 1, wherein said handle assembly comprises a disk;wherein said disk substantially conforms to said blindbore in said uppermost surface of said base; andwherein said disk is swivelly positioned in said blindbore in said uppermost surface of said base so as to allow said handle assembly to achieve a desired hand position relative to said plurality of wheel assemblies. 5. The device as defined in claim 4, wherein said disk of each handle assembly overlies said resilient donut;wherein said disk of each handle assembly has an uppermost surface; andwherein said disk of each handle assembly has a lowermost surface. 6. The device as defined in claim 5, wherein said handle assembly comprises a handle;wherein said handle is inverted U-shaped;wherein said handle is affixed centrally on said uppermost surface of said disk; andwherein said handle is affixed on said uppermost surface of said disk by screws. 7. The device as defined in claim 5, wherein said handle assembly comprises a threaded rod;wherein said threaded rod depends centrally from said lowermost surface of said disk;wherein said threaded rod is partially threaded into said lowermost surface of said disk so as to be affixed thereto;wherein said threaded rod extends through said throughbore in said base; andwherein said threaded rod extends past said lowermost surface of said base. 8. The device as defined in claim 7, wherein said handle assembly comprises a back plate;wherein said back plate is disk-shaped;wherein said back plate has an uppermost surface;wherein said back plate has a lowermost surface;wherein said back plate has a throughbore;wherein said throughbore extends centrally through said back plate; andwherein said throughbore extends from said uppermost surface of said back plate to said lowermost surface of said back plate. 9. The device as defined in claim 8, wherein said uppermost surface of said back plate has a blindbore that depends therein;wherein said blindbore in said uppermost surface of said back plate is wider than said throughbore through said back plate;wherein said blindbore in said uppermost surface of said back plate communicates with said throughbore through said back plate; andwherein said blindbore in said uppermost surface of said back plate is concentric with said throughbore through said back plate. 10. The device as defined in claim 9, wherein said uppermost surface of said back plate abuts against said lowermost surface of said base;wherein said blindbore in said back plate is wider than said throughbore through said base;wherein said blindbore in said back plate is concentric with said throughbore through said base; andwherein said threaded rod extends through said throughbore in said back plate, receives a washer, and threadably engages a wing nut which when tightened causes said blindbore in said back plate and said resilient donut to compress and maintain said handle in a desired swiveled position. 11.
