1. An exercise machine comprising: an upright, hollow mounting assembly having a top, a bottom opposite the top, a first side and a second side opposite the first side, wherein the sides extend from the bottom to the top of the mounting assembly;two upper pulley assemblies rotatably mounted adjacent to the top of the mounting assembly, wherein each of the upper pulley assemblies comprises a number of adjacent pulleys, and wherein the first upper pulley assembly is adjacent to the first side of the mounting assembly and the second upper pulley assembly is adjacent to the second side of the mounting assembly;two lower pulley assemblies rotatably mounted to the bottom of the mounting assembly, wherein each of the lower pulley assemblies comprises a number of adjacent pulleys, and wherein the first lower pulley assembly is adjacent to the first side of the mounting assembly and the second lower pulley assembly is adjacent to the second side of the mounting assembly;four sets of a plurality of exercise resistance cables, wherein one end of each cable is connected to the mounting assembly,wherein the exercise resistance cables within each set have different stretch-resistance properties to enable a user to select a desired resistance force,wherein one of the four sets of exercise resistance cables is mounted to each of the two upper and two lower pulley assemblies and the exercise resistance cables within the set extend around and outward from the pulleys of the associated pulley assembly,and wherein the mounting assembly is configured to enclose the cables when the exercise machine is not in use. 2. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mounting assembly comprises a vertically-extending, hollow housing within which the pulley assemblies are mounted and the connected ends of the exercise resistance cables are connected. 3. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 2 further comprising: a cable mount connected to the mounting assembly to provide connection of the connected end of one of the exercise resistance cables,wherein the cable mount includes a bracket having a plurality of slots, each having an enlarged circular portion and a slotted portion extending radially outwards from the circular portion, wherein each enlarged circular portion is configured to receive a connected end of one of the exercise resistance cables. 4. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a seat operatively connected to the mounting assembly. 5. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 4, wherein the set of exercise resistance cables and the pulleys of one upper pulley assembly to which they are mounted are configured to enable the user, when seated on the seat, to perform chest press exercises and to enable the user, when standing, to perform shoulder exercises, and wherein the set of exercise resistance cables and the pulleys of one lower pulley assembly to which they are mounted are configured to enable the user, when seated on the seat, to perform bicep curl exercises. 6. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 4, wherein the set of exercise resistance cables and the pulleys of one upper pulley assembly to which they are mounted are configured to enable the user, when standing, to perform shoulder press exercises, and wherein the set of exercise resistance cables and the pulleys of one lower pulley assembly to which they are mounted are configured to enable the user, when standing, to perform bicep curl exercises or leg abduction exercises. 7. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 1, wherein the exercise machine further includes an exercise step assembly operatively connected to the mounting assembly at the first side. 8. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 7, wherein the exercise step assembly is pivotally connected to the mounting assembly and is moveable from a deployed position that is spaced-apart from the mounting assembly and positioned such that the user can stand on the step assembly, to a stored position in which the user cannot stand on the step assembly. 9. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 1, further including a handle bar coupled to and extending outwards from one of the sides of the mounting assembly. 10. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 1, further comprising: an upper mounting rod adjacent to the top of the mounting assembly and to which one of the upper pulley assemblies is mounted; and a lower mounting rod adjacent to the bottom of the mounting assembly and to which one of the lower pulley assemblies is mounted. 11. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 1, wherein each upper and lower pulley assembly includes: a drum rotatably connected to the mounting assembly and having a plurality of spaced-apart grooves,wherein each groove is configured to receive one of the exercise resistance cables. 12. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 1, wherein the set of exercise resistance cables and the pulleys of one upper pulley assembly to which they are mounted are configured to enable the user, when standing, to perform shoulder press exercises, and wherein the set of exercise resistance cables and the pulleys of one lower pulley assembly to which they are mounted are configured to enable the user, when standing, to perform bicep curl exercises or leg abduction exercises. 13. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mounting assembly, the pulley assemblies and the exercise resistance cables are configured to enable the user to perform calf raises, step-ups, hamstring exercises, adduction and abduction exercises, curls, shrugs, marching, balance stances, coordinated stepping and lower body stretching, chest presses, shoulder presses, triceps extensions, bicep curls, wrist curls, front raises, lateral raises, shrugs, external rotation exercises, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation upper body exercises, abdominal crunches, seated marching, and upper body stretching. 14. An exercise machine comprising: two upright, hollow mounting assemblies, each having a top, a bottom opposite the top, a first side and a second side opposite the first side, wherein the sides extend from the bottom to the top of the mounting assembly, and wherein the hollow mounting assemblies are spaced apart from each other;two upper pulley assemblies, one rotatably mounted adjacent to the top of each mounting assembly, wherein each of the upper pulley assemblies comprises a number of adjacent pulleys;two lower pulley assemblies, one rotatably mounted adjacent to the bottom of each mounting assembly, wherein each of the lower pulley assemblies comprises a number of adjacent pulleys;four sets of a plurality of exercise resistance cables, wherein the exercise resistance cables within each set have different stretch-resistance properties to enable a user to select a desired resistance force,wherein one of the four sets of exercise resistance cables is mounted to each of the two upper and two lower pulley assemblies and the exercise resistance cables within the set extend around and outward from the pulleys of the associated pulley assembly,wherein one end of each cable is connected to the mounting assembly to which its respective pulley assembly is mounted,and wherein each mounting assembly is configured to enclose the cables to which it is attached when the exercise machine is not in use. 15. The exercise machine as claimed in claim 14, wherein the housings are connected together by a horizontal crossbar.
