A compressive exercise device facilitates exercises utilizing compressive force to develop multiple parts of the body. The device includes an elongated tube. A top section of the tube is slidably inserted into a bottom section wherein the tube is telescopic. A longitudinal slot extends through the bottom section of the tube. A resilient loop has a first end coupled to the bottom section of the tube proximate a bottom end of the bottom section. Each of a pair of rollers is coupled to an associated side of the bottom section between the top end of the slot and a top end of the bottom section. The loop extends over each roller. A pin coupled to the top section extends through the slot and slides in the slot when the tube is compressed. The loop is coupled to the pin such that the loop resists compression of the tube.
