Abstract

The invention provides a strap apparatus for stretching and strengthening muscles and connective tissue, and includes a segment of strap (12) material having a first end, a medial portion, and a second end, having a loop (14) formed in the first end, length adjustment means formed in the medial portion, and a connector element (26) attached to the second end. The connector element is adapted for releasable connection to an anchor article, e.g., an extremity cuff member or a clothing article, bearing a receiver adapted for releasable attachment to the connector element.
