ABSTRACT:
The present cross-country skiing and exercising machine includes a stand and a skiing platform slidable into and out of the stand. The platform includes channeled tracks on which ride skates with rollers. The tracks are carpeted to provide resistance to the rollers with a minimum of noise. Free dead weights are mountable on the skates to increase the workout effort. Heavy metal poles are provided and include distal ends which cooperate with sockets disposed on either side of the stand. The poles include means for receiving free dead weights so as to further increase the effort required. The poles are manipulatable parallel and transversely of the tracks and in a 360.degree. arc to provide a variety of exercise motions.
