Abstract:
1. A gym machine, comprising a ground resting base, a structure for supporting a user which is associated with said resting base so that it can rotate about a rotation axis, at least one maneuvering body which is associated movably with said supporting structure and flexible elements which are stretched between said maneuvering body and said ground resting base, said supporting structure rotating about said rotation axis between a first configuration and a second configuration when a user supported by said structure moves said maneuvering body, applying to said maneuvering body an action which is opposite with respect to the action applied thereto by said flexible elements, the machine further comprising means for adjusting a coupling point of said flexible elements to at least one between said ground resting base and said maneuvering body, wherein said means for adjusting said coupling point are associated with said resting base and comprise a slider which defines said point for coupling said flexible elements to said resting base and is guided so that it can move along a path which is formed within said resting base and means for maneuvering said slider along said path, and wherein said maneuvering means comprise a screw which is supported so that it can rotate by said resting base and is coupled to a female thread which is formed in said slider, manual, electrical, electromechanical, pneumatic or hydraulic elements for actuating the rotation of said screw being provided,
