1. An elliptical exercise machine with adjustable foot motion comprising:

  • a frame;

    a drive assembly situated on the frame;

    first and second link arms, each link arm having a first end and a second end, the first end of each link arm being rotatably connected to the drive assembly;

    first and second reciprocating foot supports, each foot support having a first end and a second end, the first end of each foot support being pivotally interconnected to the frame such that each foot support moves through an elliptical path; and

    first and second brackets, wherein the first bracket adjustably connects the first link arm to the first foot support such that movement of the first bracket relative to the first link arm and the first foot support adjusts the position of the first foot support relative to the first link arm, thereby altering the elliptical path of the first foot support, and wherein the second bracket adjustably connects the second link arm to the second foot support such that movement of the second bracket relative to the second link arm and the second foot support adjusts the position of the second foot support relative to the second link arm, thereby altering the elliptical path of the second foot support.
