Abstract

A rowing machine for physical training comprises a trolley on rails having a pivoted seat 14, 20 which is lifted about forward pivots 15 by the rowing action of the user. The user's feet rest on a footboard 9 while the user pulls on a pair of cords linked by a bar, the said cords, passing over pulleys 24, back to pulleys 26, forward to pulleys 27, back to pulleys 28, forward to pulleys 29 and finally back to an anchoring on the U-shaped bar 2. The first tension in the cords draws pulleys 26, 27 towards each other and so lifts the rear part of seat 14, 20, after which the trolley moves rearwardly to simulate rowing movement.
