Abstract

The invention refers to an exercise machine (1) comprising: a frame (2) adapted to support the machine (1) with respect to a supporting surface (8); at least one arm (4a, 4b) hinged to the frame (2) and comprising, at a distal end thereof, at least one engagement element (42a, 42b, 43a, 43b) for an end of a user's limb, such an engagement element (42a, 42b, 43a, 43b) being adapted to describe a substantially curvilinear trajectory during the movement of the arm (4a, 4b); an applicator device (6) of a resisting force to said arm (4a, 4b).The engagement element (42a, 42b, 43a, 43b) is fixed to a carriage (41a, 41b) slidably associated with the arm (4a, 4b) along a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the arm (4a, 4b), and the applicator device (6) is associated with the carriage (41a, 41b) so as to apply a resisting force to the arm (4a, 4b) acting along a direction of application angularly staggered with respect to a plane locally tangent to the substantially curvilinear trajectory for at least a portion of said trajectory.The invention also refers to a method for exercising the musculature of a user's limb that can be carried out through such an exercise machine (1).
