A non-impact exercise device comprising a framework, resistance assembly,
and a pivoting assembly. The pivoting assembly contains a pair of link
arms pivotally coupled to a pair of foot support members. The link arms
have handles for the user to grip and the foot support members have foot
platforms for the user to stand upon. The foot platforms have a wheel
attached to them and the wheel rests upon curved or arced ramps of the
exercise device. The user exercises by putting force into the device
through the handles and/or foot platforms. This causes the foot platforms
to roll along the ramps while the user is standing upon the foot
platforms. The user may readily vary the length and frequency of the
reciprocating stride.
