A treadmill including an upper body system for manipulation by the upper extremities of a user walking or jogging on the treadmill belt. The upper body system includes pivotally mounted lever arms having substantially constant but adjustable resistance to rotational reciprocation by the user, such as a frictional resistance. The pivot points of the lever arms may be adjustable as to both height and longitudinal position on the treadmill, to accommodate different sized users and different exercises.
