ABSTRACT:
A curved track striding exercise device includes a movable track assembly wherein the curved tracks can be rotatably inclined or declined relative to the base, to simulate either an uphill or downhill striding arrangement. The striding exercise device includes an arcuate track assembly including a pair of spaced elongated, parallel tracks which curve upwardly in an arc, a pair of foot skates respectively movably supported on the parallel tracks for receiving the feet of an operator thereon, and a base assembly for supporting the arcuate track assembly. The track assembly is cradled within the base and is slidably rotatable relative to the base about a pivot point which is located above the base. Rotation of the track assembly is guided in a plane which is generally parallel to the tracks, whereby the track assembly is selectively movable between a first angular position wherein the tracks are inclined relative to the supporting surface to simulate uphill striding, and a second angular position wherein the tracks are is declined relative to the supporting surface to simulate downhill striding.
