ABSTRACT:
An exerciser with an electrical stimulating device for exercising persons having paralyzed legs and the like, the exerciser having bicycle-like pedals supported on rotatable arms, and having a switchboard disposed in a plane substantially parallel to the rotational plane of the rotatable arms. Arrays of magnetically actuated switches are supported by the switchboard in semi-circular paths, and a permanent magnet is supported by one of the rotatably arms to sequentially activate the switches which, as part of a circuit containing a neuromuscular stimulator, effects selective electrical stimulation of the persons muscles to effect rotation of the rotatable arms.
