IMPROVED STEPPER EXERCISE MACHINE

摘要

An improved stair climbing exercise machine is provided. The machine (10) biomechanically simulates climbing stairs to provide exercise for a user and broadly includes a support frame (12), right and left foot-receiving pedals (15), and a drive system. The frame includes a base (20) and a generally tubular, inclined slide mast (32). The pedals are mounted on respective independently moveable shuttles slidably received in channels at each side of the mast. The electrically released drive system is operably coupled to the pedals and includes a multiple pulley and strap arrangement.
