<p>An exercise machine comprising: a rotatable device (39) for dissipating energy; a pair of foot engaging members (22, 23) each mounted for reciprocable movement along a substantially linear path, said foot engaging members (22, 23) being operatively interconnected (drive belt (32)) for alternating reciprocable movement causing movement of each foot engaging member in a first direction in response to movement of the other foot engaging member in a second direction, and vice versa; a pair of hand levers (54, 55) each operatively interconnected (drive belt (58)) for alternating reciprocable movement along a path causing movement of each hand lever in a first direction in response to movement of the other hand lever in a second direction and vice versa; means (44, 45) driven alternately in said two directions by reciprocating movement of said pair of foot engaging members, and transmitting energy to drive the rotatable device (39) in one direction only; means connecting said pair of hand levers to said means for transmitting energy to drive the rotatable device in response only to movement of each lever in one direction; and means (53, 54) operatively interconnecting the hand levers (54, 55) and the foot engaging members (22, 23) so that each movement of either foot engaging member causes movement of the hand levers, and vice versa, whereby the user of the exercise machine can do work on the rotatable means (39) by moving either foot engaging member or either lever in one direction along at least parts of said paths, and can move that foot engaging member or lever in the other direction without interference from the rotatable device.</p> |
