         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising:
 an exercise band, operatively attached to a loop defined in said at least one strap. 
 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein said exercise band comprises a flexible resilient band, adapted for isotonic exercise movements. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein said exercise band comprises a flexible non-resilient band, adapted for isometric exercise movements. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said attachment point comprises an aperture defined between a top surface and a bottom surface of said anchor plate. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said strap extends through a grommet attached to a side surface of said cover. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 6 , wherein said grommet is in substantial alignment with a lateral edge of said anchor plate. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said anchor plate is comprised of a metallic material. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said anchor plate is comprised of stainless steel. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising:
 a bottom cushion disposed beneath said anchor plate. 
 
     
     
         11 . An exercise apparatus comprising:
 a top cushion, comprising a resilient foam material;   an anchor plate, subjacent to said top cushion;   at least one strap operatively attached to an aperture defined in said anchor plate proximal to a side edge of said anchor plate; and   an exercise band operatively attached to said at least one strap.   
     
     
         12 . The exercise apparatus of  claim 11 , further comprising a bottom cushion disposed beneath said anchor plate. 
     
     
         13 . The exercise apparatus of  claim 12 , further comprising a cover enclosing said top cushion, anchor plate, and said bottom cushion, wherein a grommet in a side face of said cover is substantially aligned with a side edge of said anchor plate and proximal said aperture.
