Abstract
An exercise apparatus having multiple exercise modes of operation may include a frame supporting generally vertically oriented reciprocating members spaced apart and in substantial parallel relationship to one another. Reciprocating leg members may include foot supports secured at the lower distal ends thereof. Reciprocating arm members may include hand grips coupled proximate the upper distal ends of the arm members. The arm members and leg members may be operably coupled in multiple configurations for a user to perform various climbing exercise movements.
Claims7
An exercise apparatus, comprising:
- a) a frame;
- b) guide members extending vertically upward in a spaced apart relationship to one another fixedly secured to said frame;
- c) a pair of elongated leg members and a pair of elongated arm members, each of said pair of leg members and each of said pair of arm members movably coupled to respective said guide members, and each of said pair of leg members including a foot platform secured to a proximal end thereof, and each of said of arm members including a hand grip secured proximate to a distal end thereof;
- and
- d) actuators operatively connected to slide switch connectors actuable to selectively interconnect said pair of arm members to said pair of leg members.
2 more elements
An exercise apparatus, comprising:
- a) a frame including a base;
- b) a plurality of guide members fixedly secured to said base extending vertically upward in spaced apart relationship to one another;
- c) a left leg member and a right leg member each movably coupled to a respective one of said plurality of guide members;
- d) a left arm member and a right arm member each movably coupled to a respective one of said plurality of guide members;
- e) actuators operable to selectively change exercise configurations;
- and
- f) slide switches operable to connect said left and right leg members to said left and right arm members to form multiple exercise configurations.
