Abstract

An exercise machine (1) having a cable (16) connected at a first end to a longitudinally reciprocable target pad (13) and sequentially extending around a first pulley (57) located on a lower crossbar (56) of the machine (1), underneath the target pad (13), and then connected to a spring (17) anchored to a support (18). A pair of handles (14, 15) is attached to legs (4, 5) which support the frame (3) of the machine (1). A user (2) is able to kick the target pad (13) and thereby strengthen muscles and develop coordination needed in the martial arts.
