An exercise device comprises weights, cables and pulleys, which allows for the exercising of a wide range of muscle groups by the rearrangement of the cables on a single weight machine. A cable carrying the weights passes over a first pulley and has a second pulley attached to its free end. A second cable passes through the second pulley and is anchored at one end and has a handle on its free end. When the handle is pulled during an exercise, the second pulley and first cable are moved, thus lifting the weights.

An exercise apparatus for muscle development comprising: (a) a selectively variable vertically movable weight; (b) first cable means attached at a first end to said weight centrally thereof for lifting said weight; (c) first pulley means mounted solely by a first selectably detachable connection directly to a second end of said first cable means; (d) a second pulley means supported by a fixed frame and receiving said first cable; (e) a second cable means wrapped around said first pulley means; (f) one end of said cable means terminating in a grasping means; (g) said grasping means being graspable by a user to operate on said second cable and said first pulley means, and the other end of said second cable having a second selectably detechable connection with a fixed anchor means; (h) said weight means being free to move vertically relatively to said frame when a user\s force is applied to said grasping means; and (i) the axis of said first pulley being free to be moved in a direction which has components that are simultaneously parallel to and transverse to the direction of weight movement; whereby the application of a user\s non-vertical force to said grasping means causes said first pulley means to move in a direction having vertical and horizontal components relative to said frame as said first pulley means moves about said second pulley means.
