An exercise device is provided that comprises a support arm having an
upper support arm member defining an upper support arm axis and a lower
support arm member defining a lower support arm axis. The exercise device
further comprises a support structure to which the support arm is
pivotably attached by a longitudinal pivot mechanism and a lateral pivot
mechanism. The longitudinal pivot mechanism is adapted so that the
support arm may be selectively rotated about a longitudinal pivot in a
pitch plane that includes the upper support arm axis. The longitudinal
pivot mechanism is also adapted so that the support arm may be
selectively locked at a selected pitch rotational position. The lateral
pivot mechanism is adapted so that the support arm may be selectively
rotated about a lateral pivot point in a vertical plane that is
orthogonal to the pitch plane. The lateral pivot mechanism is also
adapted so that the support arm may be selectively locked at a selected
lateral rotational position. The exercise device also comprises a yoke
pivotably attached to the upper support arm at a yoke attachment point so
that the yoke may be rotated about the upper support arm axis. The yoke
is adapted for being grasped by a user for rotating the yoke about the
upper support arm axis.
