Abstract: An exercise machine having a frame, a vertical shaft connected to the vertical shaft for rotation about a horizontal axis. Pneumatic cylinders are connected to the frame to selectively resist the movement of the vertical shaft and the lever arms. The lever arms may be operated independently or in unison. A first user support pad is slidably connected to the frame and two additional support pads are pivotally and detachably connected to the first support pad. Telescopic support arms are pivotally connected to the frame and additional user support pads to maintain the additional support pads in selected angular relationship to the first support pad.
