An exercise machine has a motion arm with a handle with two hand grips and an optional support pad contacted by the forearms, chest, back or side of the user and pivotable 180 degrees up and down and 180 degrees to the sides used by an exerciser in a standing position. Pushing the motion arm and leaning forward in a straight body position stretches the abs, shoulders, arms and back muscles. Pulling the motion arm and leaning back to the straight standing position contracts the abs, shoulders, arms, and back muscles. Legs, hip and butt exercises may preformed by standing at a slight angle and leaning the chest, forearms or back against the optional support pad and bending the legs at the knees or at the ankles. A base may have a fixed or an adjustable by length and angle foot platform. The motion arm is connected to a lower or upper motion arm support by a pivot, roller or slider. Stretch cords or weights with lines, such as cables or belts, and pulleys attached to the motion arm assist or resist the movements.
