Apparatus for resistance training

An apparatus for resistance training for use by a human user, the apparatus comprising a frame supporting:

• a rotational pivot for providing rotation in a vertical plane;
• and
• a horizontal reaction arm adapted to be moved by a body part of the human user;
• and
• an actuation arm, the actuation arm being rotatably mounted on the rotational pivot and rotationally mounted on the horizontal reaction arm;
• such that application of force on the horizontal reaction arm causes the reaction arm to move about the rotational pivot whilst remaining horizontal;
• the frame further comprising a resistance means arranged to apply a user-selected resistive force that must be overcome to induce movement of the horizontal reaction arm from a rest position, wherein the actuation arm has a length that is adjustable by the human user, wherein the rotational pivot is vertically moveable within the frame, and wherein the horizontal reaction arm is capable of being moved in both a clockwise or anti-clockwise sense about the rotational pivot;
• wherein the frame supports a seat to support the body of the human user;
• and
• wherein the seat is moveably adjustable both horizontally and vertically relative to the frame.
