A compact standup exercise apparatus simulates walking and jogging with arm exercise. Elongate foot pedals move with a back and forth elliptical movement while the pedals incline. Several foot positions are provided on the elongate pedals. Arm exercise is coordinated with the motion of the foot pedals. An adjustable connector link is provided to relocate the arm exercise for different foot positions on the elongate pedals. Leg joint impact is controlled to be very low as to allow extended exercise without joint soreness.
