Person support apparatuses with exercise functionalities are disclosed. In one embodiment, the person support apparatus may include a base frame and a primary support frame supported on the base frame. A carriage may be freely translatable at least between a head end of the primary support frame and a foot end of the primary support frame. A support surface may be supported on the carriage such that the support surface translates with the carriage. The support surface may include at least one support section which is collapsible in a length direction of the support surface. The at least one support section collapses as the carriage translates towards the foot end of the primary support frame.

The person support apparatus of claim 1, wherein the at least one support section is a lower support section of the support surface. 3. The person support apparatus of claim 1, wherein: the carriage comprises seat portion and a torso portion; andthe torso portion is inclined with respect to the seat portion when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 4. The person support apparatus of claim 3, wherein: the seat portion comprises a thigh segment and a gluteal segment; andthe thigh segment is pivoted towards the gluteal segment when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 5. The person support apparatus of claim 1, further comprising an extendable foot section coupled to the primary support frame, wherein: the extendable foot section has an extended position and at least one retracted position; andthe extendable foot section is in the at least one retracted position when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 6. The person support apparatus of claim 1, wherein the primary support frame is tiltable with respect to the base frame. 7. The person support apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a deck at least partially supported on the carriage, wherein the support surface is positioned on the deck. 8. The person support apparatus of claim 7, wherein the deck comprises a seat portion and a torso portion, wherein the torso portion is pivotable with respect to the seat portion from a recumbent position to at least one inclined position. 9. The person support apparatus of claim 8, wherein the seat portion comprises a gluteal segment and a thigh segment, wherein at least the thigh segment is pivotable with respect to the gluteal segment. 10. The person support apparatus of claim 9, wherein the person support apparatus has an exercise configuration wherein: the torso portion is inclined with respect to the seat portion; andthe thigh segment is pivoted towards the gluteal segment. 11. The person support apparatus of claim 10, wherein the primary support frame is tilted with respect to the base frame when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 12. The person support apparatus of claim 10, further comprising an extendable foot section coupled to the primary support frame, wherein: the extendable foot section has an extended position and at least one retracted position; andthe extendable foot section is in the at least one retracted position when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 13. The person support apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a footboard removably attached proximate to the foot end of the primary support frame. 14. The person support apparatus of claim 13, wherein a position of the footboard is adjustable relative to the primary support frame. 15. The person support apparatus of claim 13, wherein the footboard comprises a left foot plate and a right foot plate, wherein each of the left foot plate and the right foot plate are coupled to corresponding force sensors, the force sensors measuring loads applied to the left foot plate and the right foot plate. 16. The person support apparatus of claim 15, wherein the footboard further comprises a display communicatively coupled to the force sensors with a processor, the display displaying an output of the force sensors. 17. The person support apparatus of claim 15, wherein the footboard further comprises at least one battery electrically coupled to an inductive charging unit. 18. The person support apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a position sensor coupled to the carriage, the position sensor determining an amount of travel of the carriage with respect to the primary support frame. 19. The person support apparatus of claim 1 wherein: the primary support frame is tiltable with respect to the base frame;an extendable foot section is pivotally coupled to the primary support frame, the extendable foot section having an extended position and at least one retracted position with respect to the primary support frame; andthe at least one support section comprises a lower support section having the air bladder. 20. The person support apparatus of claim 19, wherein the extendable foot section is in the at least one retracted position when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 21. The person support apparatus of claim 19, wherein the support surface comprises a pressure source fluidly coupled to the at least one air bladder, the pressure source inflating the air bladder. 22. The person support apparatus of claim 19, wherein the support surface further comprises an upper support segment comprising at least one air bladder, wherein the at least one air bladder of the upper support segment is not vented when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 23. The person support apparatus of claim 19, wherein the primary support frame is tilted with respect to the base frame when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 24. The person support apparatus of claim 19, further comprising a deck at least partially supported by the carriage, wherein the support surface is positioned on the deck. 25. The person support apparatus of claim 24, wherein the deck comprises a seat portion and a torso portion, wherein the torso portion is pivotable with respect to the seat portion from a recumbent position to at least one inclined position. 26. The person support apparatus of claim 25, wherein the torso portion is inclined with respect to the seat portion and the extendable foot section is in the at least one retracted position when the person support apparatus is in the exercise configuration. 27. The person support apparatus of claim 25, wherein the seat portion comprises a gluteal segment and a thigh segment, wherein at least the thigh segment is pivotable with respect to the gluteal segment. 28.
