A multi-effect exercise device to be used to maximize the effects of all manipulations and maneuvers during exercise and to have multiple exercise stimulation effects upon a user during a normal exercise routine, the device including a pair of support rails connected by at least one connector segment whereon a pair of exercise members are secured. Each of the pair of exercise members will include a fore segment and rear segment hingedly secured to one another and pivotally disposed relative to the rear segment such that by gripping a handle grip segment extending from a distal end of the fore segment the fore segment can be pivotally moved towards and away from the rear segment. In order to provide the appropriate exercise effects, movement of the fore segment both towards and away from the rear segment will be resisted, thereby ensuring that work is being done both during a compression and extension stroke of the arm during exercising. Additionally, the handle grip segment is secured to the fore segment such that resisted pivotal movement between the handle grip segment and fore segment as well as resisted torsional movement between the handle grip segment and fore segment is achieved to provide an even greater degree of comfort and exercise to the user.

An exercise device comprising: (a) a pair of elongate support rails, said support rails being disposed in a spaced apart relation from one another, (b) at least one connector segment disposed between said support rails so as to maintain said support rails in said spaced apart relation, (c) a pair of exercise members, each of said exercise members being secured to one of said support rails and comprising: a fore segment and a rear segment, said fore segment including a proximal end and a distal end, a handle grip segment extending from said distal end of said fore segment and structured to be gripped by a user, fastening means structured to secure said handle grip segment to said fore segment, said fastening means including biased pivot resistance means structured to enable resisted, pivoted movement of said handle grip segment relative to said fore segment upon pivoted movement of a wrist of the user gripping said handle grip segment, said fastening means further including biased torsion resistance means structured to enable resisted, torsional movement of said handle grip segment relative to said fore segment upon torsional movement of the wrist of the user gripping said handle grip segment, said fore segment and said rear segment being hingedly secured to one another and pivotally secured to said support rails, variable height support means structured and disposed to adjustably secure said rear segment in a plurality of adjusted elevations relative to said support rail, (d) vertical resistance means disposed between each of said support rails and each of said fore segments of said exercise members, said vertical resistance means being structured to resist movement of said fore segments away from said support rails, and (e) horizontal resistance means structured and disposed to resist movement of said fore segments away from said rear segments.
