Abstract

A pedal exercise apparatus (100, 100′, 500, 600) is provided. The apparatus (100, 100′, 500, 600) comprises pedals (112) mounted on crank arms (104, 106, 401, 404). At least one pedal (112) is associated with at least one resilient member (116,117, 410). In use of the apparatus (100, 100″, 500, 600), a pedal (112) can be displaced from a rest position to a work position against a restoring force provided by the resilient member (116,117, 410) and held in the work position while the user performs a pedalling motion, allowing the user to exercise.
