Disclosed is an apparatus for developing the upper body and in particular the chest. The apparatus includes opposed lever arms pivotally secured to each other at a fulcrum point located at the terminal ends of the opposed levers. The opposed lever arms are biased against each other and form a "V" shape. A counteracting force is needed to bring the handle ends of the levers together. The force required to bring the opposed handle ends together exercises the upper body of a user.
