ABSTRACT:
An exercise machine for restoring lost movement to joints and muscles includes a base to which a chair upon which the user is seated may be mounted, to prevent the machine from tipping, and includes a vertical standard mounting a rotatable handlebar assembly and a crank assembly. The handlebar assembly includes a sloping stem rotatable on the vertical standard and handlebars rotatable on the upper sloping end of the stem, whereby propelling the handlebars about for a circular path of the stem upper end provides a wide range of movement to the arms and upper torso. The crank assembly is made up of upper and lower bicycle-type crank mechanisms, for the arms and legs, coupled by a V-belt so that strong, readily moved legs may be utilized to restore movement to arms whose range of movement is impaired, or vice-versa.
