Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to an exercise machine with adjustable tension, and more particularly to an exercise machine which can provide different levels of pulling force training for a user.

[0003] 2. Description of the Related Art

[0004] As the quality of life improves, people are eating increasingly unhealthy foods, which is leading to increased cholesterol levels, hypertension, heart disease and other cardiovascular diseases. As the pace of life increases, people have less time to devote to sports and fitness, with the result the waistlines increase even as people become more listless. In view of this, given the need to conserve space and provide convenience for the user, exercise equipment that can be easily stored when not in use is desired. An example of such equipment is push / pull exercise machines.

[0005] Please refer to FIG. 8. A typical pulling exercise machine comprises two tubes 81 forming a frame 80, a separ...

Embodiment Construction

[0021]First, please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3. An exercise machine has an exercise machine body, and the exercise machine body is combined with a soft pad 10, such that a user can put both knees onto the soft pad 10 for abdominal or hip exercises. The exercise machine body comprises a base 20, an upper cover 30, an elastic line 40, a sliding set 50, an adjusting device 60 and an adjusting screw 70. The soft pad 10 has an impact absorbing effect and is capable of being folded to reduce storage space requirements. The base 20 comprises a platform 21. Two first sliding tracks 23 are formed between two respective pairs of raised first stopping sidewalls 22, which are respectively disposed on two sides of a top of the platform 21 such that a docking space 24 is forming between the two first sliding tracks 23. A first bar 25 is pivoted to a rear section within the docking space 24. Three protruding limiting edges 26 are formed at a front section of each of the two stopping sidewalls 22 in...
