No more laying on the floor to do situps!

The Problem:

Problem is when doing sit ups you have to find a thick pad and or enough room to lay down. Also while laying down all the blood rushes to your head making you dizzy. Also while in standing position it allows stretching of the ham strings unlike situps, which will make you more limber.

Describe how your idea will solve this problem?

With my product you can easily stand and do a sit up. Also instead of gravity providing the resistance, my unique use of different resistance rubber straps provide a truly unique workout. One size fits all! I utilize nylon straps with Velcro allowing a person 4 foot tall to 8 foot tall to be able to use the system. Very inexpensive to make and has no metal parts allowing easy packing into a travel bag for airports and such. Once the system is initially setup, which requires maybe 5 minutes, it only takes seconds to start working out.

Your idea's cool features

Fully adjustable for people 4 foot tall to 8 foot tall. Varying resistance rubber straps. No metal pieces. Fun to use! Easily packed into a bag that is no bigger than 6" round by 12" long (could possibly make smaller) Unique! there is nothing else like this out there

    Thanks I built the prototype from ratchet straps and use it, and it works great. In the description I have velcro as the adjustable instead of the ratchet straps and abs plastic clips instead of the carabiners, and this is why I came to Big Idea was to get help with actually manufacturing and then bringing it to the local gyms. Everyone that has used my prototype absolutely loves it and are getting results. I built the prototype as proof of concept. I unfortunately run a business and don’t have alot of time to work on this so this is why I’m here.

      Thank you I appreciate the vote. I think this could be a big hit seeing as how cheap it is to make or manufacture and really the reason I made this is because when I would do sit ups my tail bone always dug into the ground. Even with a pad it eventually becomes really uncomfortable.
