Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9626770A1] A user support (11) and a primary hinge (30) are mounted to a frame (10). A secondary hinge (32, 34) is mounted to the primary hinge (30). An arm (60) mounted to the secondary hinge has a handle (61) adapted to be grasped by the user. The two hinges permit the user to displace the handle in either or both the longitudinal and lateral directions. A means for resisting the displacement of the handle, preferably in both the lateral and longitudinal directions, is provided. The resistance means may include a post (62) attached to the arm for mounting weight plates. The arms may be connected such that both handles move the same longitudinal and/or lateral distance. To use the exercise machine (1), a user selects a weight for exercise, lies on the user support, grasps the handle and pushes upward from his shoulders, moving the handle longitudinally and laterally as he so chooses, overcoming the resistance.
