ABSTRACT:
A safety switch for electrical or powered exercise equipment is provided. The switch includes a switch body slidingly connected to a bar section of typical exercise equipment. The switch body slides to operate a connected electrical switch. To turn on the equipment, a user depresses a button connected to the switch body and slides the switch on. To turn off, the exerciser need only slide the switch body back to its original position. The switch is adapted and located so that during a fall, the motion of the exerciser's body would typically be in the direction of the off position of the switch.
