Exercise seat for transport vehicle

Abstract

A leg exerciser having first and second foot pads coupled to a glide assembly having longitudinally extending first and second tracks for moving the first and second foot pads between a stored position and an exercising position. The foots pads are coupled to a resistance means to provide resistance to the movement of the foot pads. The leg exerciser is configured to be mounted to a seat.

1 . A leg exerciser comprising: 
 a first and a second foot pad;    a glide assembly having longitudinally extending first and second tracks for moving said first and second foot pads between a stored position and a exercising position; and    a resistance means coupled to said foot pads to provide resistance to the movement of said foot pads,    said leg exerciser configured to be mounted to seat tracks of a first seat such that loads experienced by the compression of the first and second foot pads are absorbed in seat tracks of the first seat while a user of the leg exerciser is seated in a second seat.    
   
   
       2 . The leg exerciser of  claim 1 , wherein said glide assembly includes at least one means for folding the foot pads into a collapsed configuration.  
   
   
       3 . The leg exerciser of  claim 1 , wherein the leg exerciser is configured to be operated from a seated position.  
   
   
       4 . The leg exerciser of  claim 1 , further comprising means for providing variable resistance to the motion of the first and second foot pads.  
   
   
       5 . The leg exerciser of  claim 1 , wherein the first and second foot pads have a texturized surface.
