Abstract:
A cross country skiing exercise machine is disclosed. The machine has ski members slidingly mounted to a base frame and front and rear arm exercise units mounted towards the front and rear of the base frame, respectively. The front arm exercise unit has a front pair of flexible lines to be gripped by a user's hands to permit the user to reciprocally pull back on said front pair of flexible lines. The rear arm exercise unit has a rear pair of flexible lines having straps configured to be attached to the user's arms to permit the user to reciprocally pull forward on the rear pair of flexible lines. The front and rear arm exercise units are configured to apply a drag force to the front and rear pair of flexible lines, respectively. A rear leg exercise unit having flexible lines for mounting to the user's legs is also provided.

Claim (Index 1):
An exerciser for simulating cross country skiing comprising a base frame having opposite forward and rear ends, a pair of ski members mounted to the base frame, the ski members and base frame configured to permit the ski members to slide back and forth between the first and second ends, a front post extending upwardly from the forward end of the base frame, a forward resistance member mounted to the front post, a first flexible line having opposite ends movably coupled to the forward resistance member, the opposite ends of the first flexible line having handles to be gripped by a user's hands to permit the user to reciprocally pull back on the opposite ends of the first flexible line, the forward resistance member configured to apply a second drag force to the first flexible line, a rear post extending upwardly from the rear end of the base frame, a rear resistance member mounted to the rear post, a second flexible line having opposite ends movably coupled to the rear resistance member, the opposite ends of the second flexible line having straps configured to be attached to the user's arms to permit the user to reciprocally pull forward on the opposite ends of the second flexible line, the rear resistance member configured to apply a third drag force to the second flexible line, the ski members being mounted between the forward and rear posts such that the user is positioned between the front and rear posts when the user mounts the ski members.
