Abstract: An exercise device includes a support frame configured to contact a support surface, and a cycler coupled to the frame. The cycler is configured to move with respect to the frame between a first position so as to be engaged by hands of a user of the exercise device, and a second position so as to be engaged by feet of the user. The exerciser also includes a lock configured to lock the cycler relative to the frame in the first and second positions. In an embodiment, the cycler is mounted on a movable frame that moves with respect to the support frame. In an embodiment, the movable frame is pivotally mounted to the support frame, such as to pivot generally parallel to the support frame, or generally across the support frame. In an embodiment, the movable frame is configured to slidably move up and down the support frame.

In an embodiment, the support frame is adjustable, and contains a seat, wherein adjusting the support frame moves the seat relative to the cycler.

Abstract: A recumbent leg and arm exercising machine is disclosed which may be used as a rower, a stepper and/or to perform a bench press-type exercise. The machine may also be used to exercise only the arms, only the legs, as well as both the arms and the legs. The exercising machine includes a seat, foot levers and arm levers, and is constructed so that the apparatus may be used for synchronized exercises in which selected or all levers move in synchronism. In accordance with the preferred embodiment, the exercising machine includes right foot and arm levers coupled to move in synchronism in opposite directions, and left foot and arm levers coupled to move in synchronism in opposite directions. Preferably, the right levers and the left levers operate independently of each other. However, in alternate embodiments, the right and left levers may also be coupled to move in synchronism, so that the apparatus operates either as a rower or as a stepper, depending upon the arrangement for coupling the levers.
