ABSTRACT:
An exercise device comprises a frame having a seat mounted thereon and a pair of handlebars extending upwardly from and pivotally attached to the frame at a point forward of the seat, each of the handlebars being individually moveable back and forth by the arms of a user of the device. A foot pedal is mounted to and extends rearwardly from each of the handlebars, each foot pedal being individually moveable down and up by the legs of a user of the device. The exercise device includes a pair of weight supporting frames, each of the frames having at least one vertically extending elongated member rigidly connected thereto. Each frame also includes a plurality of weights slidably mounted upon the elongated member. The exercise device further includes a linkage means between each of the handlebars and selected weights within a corresponding weight support frame. The linkage means permits the selected weights to be raised and lowered by respective back and forth movement of the handlebars. The user when seated on the seat may exercise his individual arms and/or legs against resistance of raising and lowering selected weights by respective movement of the individual handlebars in a back and forth direction and individual foot pedals in a down and up direction.
