Abstract (en)

An exercise device comprising a user operated air pump in the form of a piston and cylinder arrangement (20, 28) connected to pump air into an air receiver (22). The connection is made via a non-return valve (32) across which is connected a by-pass valve (36). A control unit (30) is connected to a pressure sensor (38) in the air receiver (22) and an operating member on the by-pass valve (36) so that when the pressure in the air receiver (22) reaches or exceeds a predetermined threshold value, as sensed by the pressure sensor (38), the control unit (30) opens the by-pass value (36) to convert the air pump (20, 28) and air receiver (22) into an air spring.
