An exercise machine provides a pair of arms positionable for completing chest presses and also for doing a fly type exercise. On each arm a knuckle is hinged between two orthogonal sockets so as to enable positioning of the arms in appropriate positions for the two exercises. The exerciser may move the arms apart for fly exercise motion or to a position in front of the chest for a press exercise motion.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. An exercise apparatus comprising:a rocker arm including a pair of integral, spaced apart knuckle sockets, the rocker arm pivotally engaged with a fixed frame structure about a rocker arm axis for rotation between a vertical attitude and an off-vertical, angled attitude;a pair of knuckles, each of the knuckles pivotally engaged with one of the knuckle sockets for rotation about a knuckle socket axis thereof;a pair of exercise arms, each of the exercise arms including a proximal extension portion formed at a right angle to, and integral with a distal handle portion, each of the proximal extension portions pivotally engaged with one of said knuckles for rotation about a knuckle axis thereof;the knuckle socket axes positioned orthogonally to the knuckle axes;the knuckles and exercise arms adapted, with the extension portions positioned vertically and the handle portions positioned horizontally and directed toward each other, for rocker arm rotation about the rocker arm axis, in a press type exercise between the vertical attitude and the off-vertical, angled attitude, and with the exercise arms rotated laterally apart about the knuckle axes for positioning in mutually, off-vertical, downwardly divergent, lateral positions, for exercise arm rotation about the knuckle socket axes in a fly type exercise whereby the exercise arms are enabled for being moved first toward and then away from each other.
