Abstract
An exercise apparatus includes a motion mechanism and a handle assembly. The motion mechanism is provided for a user to perform exercise. The handle assembly has at least one grip portion for being held by the user during exercising. Specifically, the grip portion has a temperature variable area thereon. The temperature of the temperature variable area could be controlled to rise to a suitable temperature that the hand of the user can feel warm, for example, a temperature between 38 and 50 degrees Celsius. The temperature of the temperature variable area could also be controlled to reduce to a suitable temperature that the hand of the user can feel cool, for example, a temperature between 20 and 36 degrees Celsius. The temperature of the temperature variable area could be directly controlled by the user or automatically changed according to the exercise status of the user.
