Abstract

Disclosed is a sporting apparatus for handstand which makes it possible to protect a user's ankle, knee and waist during an exercise by distributing the loads which focus on a user's ankle while a user's lying-down posture with his back on a backrest board is rotated to a handstand posture, so a weak and old person or a user whose bones can easily fracture can do exercise in safe. The sporting apparatus comprises a base mounted on the ground and having a handle being installed on the upper side of it; a backrest board which is rotatably hinged to the base and supports a user's back; an angle-shaped lower body mounting part which is integrally engaged to a lower side of the backrest board and on which is disposed a sitting board allowing a user to sit on it, an ankle fixing rod is formed at a lower side, and bumper part connecting the backrest board and the base while providing a bumper force.
