ABSTRACT:
The subject invention provides an upper body exercise machine with increased joint range of motion along with more consistently applied torque to the joint throughout the entire range of exercise. The exercise machine includes dual axis, dual hinge mechanisms enabling a user emulate the natural biomechanical motion associated with free weights, while maintaining the stability of an exercise machine and providing more consistent loading than free weights. The dual axis, dual hinge mechanisms permit the handles to be independently or in combination moved longitudinally and laterally in a relationship selected by the user.
