A rehabilitation and cross train exercise method and apparatus necessary to apply the method, utilizing a cycle ergometer while in a natural upright body stance isotonically exercising the lower extremities through a natural range of motion, at slow R.P.M.'s, working against a variable resistance, while simultaneously exercising the upper body musculature isometrically, by employing a multiple handhold apparatus and using a sequence of different handhold positions allowing exertion through a wide range of motion. The cardiovascular, aerobic and anaerobic conditioning and flexibility enhancing benefits that can be derived from this method and apparatus create a foundation upon which general physical and specific athletic performance and rehabilitative progress can be built. |
