Patent ID: 7998037

Claim:
An adjustable resistance training apparatus comprising: a carrier; a series of elongated elastomeric members that are supported by the carrier to orient the elastomeric members in a spaced apart relationship to each other; a slide member, the carrier moveable relative to the slide member to cause movement of the elastomeric members relative to the slide member along a first plane for selecting one or more of the elastomeric members, the slide member configured to be moved along a guided path in response to a force exerted by a user, the slide includes an engagement member that is configured to permit selective engagement to said one or more of the elastomeric members to cause the selected one or more elastomeric member or members to be stretched along a second plane in response to movement of the slide along the guided path; and wherein the adjustable resistance training apparatus is coupled to isotonic weights in the form of a selectable weight stack that moves along a guided path in response to a force exerted by the user.
