An exercise machine comprising: a main frame; a torso support carried on the main frame so as to be arranged to support a torso of the user thereon facing in a forward direction; a crank assembly supported on the main frame so as to be rotatable about a laterally oriented crank axis, the crank assembly including two crank members rotatable together at diametrically opposing locations relative to the crank axis and at laterally opposing sides of the crank assembly; two base tracks on the main frame extending longitudinally in the forward direction below the torso support in which each base track supports a respective follower member for cyclical movement longitudinally along the base track; two base link members, each base link member extending longitudinally from a first connection on a respective one of the crank members to a second connection on a respective one of the follower members such that the base link members are operatively connected to one another through the crank assembly to be 180 out of phase with one another; two handles supported on the main frame for pivotal movement about a handle axis, each handle being operatively connected to a respective one of the base link members such that a cyclical movement of the handle drives the cyclical movement of the follower member of the respective base link member; a foot support carried on each base link member for supporting a respective foot of the user thereon; two leg linkages operatively connected between the main frame and respective ones of the base link members, wherein (i) each leg linkage includes an upper link and a lower link, (ii) each upper link is pivotally coupled at a first end of the upper link on the main frame adjacent the torso support, (iii) each lower link is pivotally coupled at a first end of the lower link on a second end of the upper link, and (iv) each lower link is pivotally coupled at a second end adjacent the respective foot support; and bracing on each leg linkage to support a respective leg of the user relative to the leg linkage; characterized in that the second end of the lower link of each leg linkage is pivotally coupled on the respective base link member. a main frame; a torso support carried on the main frame so as to be arranged to support a torso of the user thereon facing in a forward direction; a crank assembly supported on the main frame so as to be rotatable about a laterally oriented crank axis, the crank assembly including two crank members rotatable together at diametrically opposing locations relative to the crank axis and at laterally opposing sides of the crank assembly; two base tracks on the main frame extending longitudinally in the forward direction below the torso support in which each base track supports a respective follower member for cyclical movement longitudinally along the base track; two base link members, each base link member extending longitudinally from a first connection on a respective one of the crank members to a second connection on a respective one of the follower members such that the base link members are operatively connected to one another through the crank assembly to be 180 out of phase with one another; two handles supported on the main frame for pivotal movement about a handle axis, each handle being operatively connected to a respective one of the base link members such that a cyclical movement of the handle drives the cyclical movement of the follower member of the respective base link member; a foot support carried on each base link member for supporting a respective foot of the user thereon; two leg linkages operatively connected between the main frame and respective ones of the base link members, wherein (i) each leg linkage includes an upper link and a lower link, (ii) each upper link is pivotally coupled at a first end of the upper link on the main frame adjacent the torso support, (iii) each lower link is pivotally coupled at a first end of the lower link on a second end of the upper link, and (iv) each lower link is pivotally coupled at a second end adjacent the respective foot support; and bracing on each leg linkage to support a respective leg of the user relative to the leg linkage; characterized in that the second end of the lower link of each leg linkage is pivotally coupled on the respective base link member.
