<p>An exercise machine includes a frame having a horizontal cross beam which can be formed in two sections at right angles each defining an exercis e area on a floor underneath the cross beam together with two pairs of upright post s where a first exercise area is formed between a wider spaced pair of the posts and a second exercise area is formed between a narrower spaced pair of the posts. Each post carries an exercise element including a mounting collar carried on the respective post end slidable longitudinally of the post to adjust the positi on of the exercise element on the post. Each exercise element includes a cable attache d to an adjustable resistance element, a pair of pulleys between which the cable passes carried on a housing pivotal relative to the post and a hand grip member attached to an end of the cable such that the hand grip member can be grasped by a perso n for pulling on the cable with the cable being guided as it is pulled by at least one of the pulleys. The apparatus also provides a glove which is designed to allow the cable to be attached while applying forces to the forearm away from the wrist and als o provides a mat which shows exercises to be doe on the machine</p> |
