Abstract:
An exercise machine resistance adjustment system for providing an exerciser the ability to immediately adjust the resistance force by changing their body position on the movable carriage or end platforms. The exercise machine resistance adjustment system generally includes a frame, a carriage movably positioned on the frame, a spring connected to the carriage to apply a biasing force to the carriage, one or more left projections within the carriage adapted for a left hand of an exerciser to grasp, and one or more right projections within the carriage adapted for a right hand of an exerciser to grasp. The exerciser is able to efficiently adjust the amount of resistance force applied to the carriage by repositioning their hands (or feet) from a first set of projections at a first distance to a second set of projections at a second distance from the first end of the exercise machine.

Claim (Index 1):
An exercise machine, comprising:\n a frame having a first end, a second end, and a first rail extending between the first end and the second end of the frame; a carriage movably positioned upon the first rail of the frame, and wherein the carriage is movable between the first end and the second end, wherein the carriage is comprised of:\n an upper surface, a first end, and a second end opposite of the first end of the carriage, wherein the first end of the carriage is closer than the second end of the carriage to the first end of the frame; \n a plurality of left handles distally spaced apart, wherein the plurality of left handles are adapted to be grasped by a left hand of an exerciser, wherein the innermost of the plurality of left handles is closer to the first end of the frame than the outermost of the plurality of left handles; and \n a plurality of right handles distally spaced apart, wherein the plurality of right handles are adapted to be grasped by a right hand of an exerciser, wherein the innermost of the plurality of right handles is closer to the first end of the frame than the outermost of the plurality of right handles; \n a biasing member connected to the carriage, wherein the biasing member applies a bias force upon the carriage; and a first end platform connected to the frame and positioned near the first end of the frame.
