ABSTRACT:
A high row exercise machine includes a frame symmetrical with respect to a vertical midplane, a seat connected to the frame adapted to support an exerciser along the midplane in a forward facing direction, and a pair of spaced levers pivotally connected to the frame above and behind the seat on opposite sides of the midplane. The levers pivot through vertical planes of motion which converge with respect to the forward facing direction of the seat. Each of the rearward ends of the levers is adapted to hold a selected weight resistance, and each of the forward ends of the levers includes an angled handle located in front of and above the exerciser supported on the seat. An exerciser supported on the seat reaches up and grasps the handles, with palms facing forward, and then pulls downwardly and slightly forwardly in a high row exercise motion to pivot the levers against the selected weight resistances held by the hubs.
