Exercises can be performed sitting up, lying down, as well as standing off, facing the chair. An adjustable base frame supports pivoting seat beams and pivoting backrest beams, with the pivoting seat beams supporting pivoting leg members, and the pivoting backrest beams supporting pivoting arm members which also have reciprocating handles. Each pivoting member is connected to an adjustable means of bidirectional resistance. The backrest beams also support laterally pivoting, telescoping members which support reciprocating handles connected to linkage, rotary guidance, and a means of resistance, thus allowing the user to perform a multitude of horizontal, vertical, diagonal, and circular movements of the arms, legs, arid torso, and hold down hooks can be employed to hold the lateral, telescoping members in a horizontal position,for additional shoulder exercises.
