ABSTRACT:
This disclosure relates to a rower-type exerciser comprising a support base, a seat, and pivot links connecting the seat with the base to produce a glider-type rocking motion. A resistance device is connected between the parts to resist or restrain the rocking motion. Force arms are attached to the links to enable an operator on the seat to induce the rocking motion, and a foot brace is attached to the support base to enable the operator to brace the feet and/or push or pull forward with footstraps in place against the brace to further induce the rocking motion. The user can emphasize force contributions of either the user's top extremities or lower extremities to the rocking motion inducing forces.
