Abstract

A step climber exercise machine comprises a base frame having a support bar telescopically mounted therein, a pair of stepping members pivotally secured to the base frame, a main strut attached to the base frame extending upwardly therefrom and handle bars secured atop the main strut. A different resistance is secured to each stepping member for providing resistance when a downward force is placed on the stepping members by the user. The support bar can extend outwardly from the base frame to prevent tipping of the exercise machine when in use.
