description An apparatus for lower back exercise has a support structure, a body support platform and a pendulum pivotably connected to the support structure below the body support platform for engaging the legs of a user. Actuators cause the pendulum to move upwardly or downwardly to either assist the movement of the legs of a user engaging the pendulum, or to resist motions of the pendulum initiated by the user. The body support platform may be tilted by an actuator to provide ease of mounting and dismounting the apparatus. Controls for the actuators are provided to allow a practitioner to monitor and adjust the assistance or resistance provided by the apparatus to the user. The apparatus thus avoids hyperextension of the back while providing strength conditioning with progressive intensity of work outs, especially for users injured or otherwise in poor condition.
