Exercise apparatus with elongated stride

摘要

An aerobic exerciser with elongated stride comprising a frame, a bell crank, a left telescoping pedal rail rotatably attached to the left side of the bell crank at one end and pivotably attached to the frame at the other end, and a right telescoping pedal rail rotatably attached to the right side of the bell crank at one end and pivotably attached to the frame at the other end.;In operation, under the weight of the user, each pedal, supported on a pedal rail follows a generally elliptical path in response to rotation of the bell crank. Vertical movement of a telescoping pedal rail is accommodated by the pivot and horizontal movement of the pedal rail results in extension and retraction of the pedal rail.
