Strength training apparatus
DCFirst Claim
1. A strength training apparatus comprising:
- a tower;
a first arm and a second arm each pivotally coupled with the tower and each being configured to be selectively positionable independent of each other at multiple angles relative to each other;
a first pulley coupled to an end of the first arm;
a first cable extending through the first arm and the first pulley;
a second pulley coupled to an end of the second arm;
a second cable extending through the second arm and the second pulley;
a magnetic mechanism coupled to the first cable and the second cable and configured to provide multiple levels of resistance to a user pulling on the first cable and/or the second cable; and
a control panel located on the tower, the control panel including;
a processor and a memory configured to control a current level of resistance provided by the magnetic mechanism,an input device configured to allow the user to set the current level of resistance provided by the magnetic mechanism, andan output device configured to display the current level of resistance provided by the magnetic mechanism.
