Abstract

La présente invention a trait à un dispositif d'exercice mettant en oeuvre deux surfaces mobiles supportées à pivotement côte à côte. Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, un dispositif d'exercice utilise une première courroie déployée autour d'un galet avant et d'un galet arrière et une deuxième courroie adjacente déployée autour d'un galet avant et d'un galet arrière. Les parties arrière des courroies dans la zone des galets arrière sont solidaires en pivotement et les parties avant des courroies dans la zone des galets avant sont adaptés à un mouvement en va-et-vient de bas en haut et inversement en fonctionnement. Dans certains modes de réalisation, les surfaces mobiles comprennent une structure d'interconnexion de sorte qu'un mouvement globalement descendant d'une surface s'effectue en coordination avec un mouvement globalement ascendant de l'autre surface. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, les surfaces mobiles sont associées en fonctionnement avec un ou des éléments de résistance qui exercent la quantité de force requise pour faire pivoter ou actionner les surfaces mobiles.
