ABSTRACT:
An arcuate hand rail for exercise equipment accommodates both varying height individuals as well as individuals leaning towards the exercise machine by orienting and positioning the arcuate hand rail such that a vertical tangent thereto lies at or adjacent the average vertical center line of an exercising individual on the exercise apparatus in a stand-up orientation. This placement of the tangent point at or adjacent the average vertical center line of the standing individual permits a wide range of individuals to grasp the hand rail when exercising in a stand-up mode, with elbows bent in a comfort range of 15.degree.-55.degree. to the horizontal while at the same time, as an additional benefit, providing arm-extended grip points for comfortable lean-forward exercise.
