Abstract
A direct drive exercising apparatus is comprised of three main linkages adapted to displace a predetermined weight stack upon a user person performing an exercise. The linkages are comprised of weight stack connecting members pivotally connected at a first end to a carrier member on which the weight stacks are disposed, and pivotally connected at an opposed end to an attachment frame. Force transmitting members are pivotally connected to the attachment frame. A user engaging member is secured to the force transmitting members to impart pivotal movement thereto. Link members are pivotally connected at one end to the stack connecting members intermediate the first and second opposed ends. The link members are also connected at an opposed end thereof to the force transmitting members. The link members apply a force on the stack connecting members to cause pivotal displacement thereof to lift a stack of selected ones of weight elements attached to the carrier member when the user exerts an exercising force against a user engaging element of the force transmitting members.
