Disclosed herein are various embodiments of an exercise apparatus. In certain embodiments, an exercise apparatus comprises a frame and a seat assembly, the seat assembly comprising a seat, the seat configured to move between a first position and a second position, wherein the first position accommodates use of the exercise apparatus by a user sitting on the seat and wherein the second position accommodates use of the exercise apparatus by a user sitting in a wheelchair. The seat assembly may be pivotably coupled to the frame. The seat assembly may comprise a stop configured to inhibit movement of the seat, and may further comprise a biasing element that is biased to disengage the stop.

1. An exercise apparatus comprising: a frame;a seat assembly coupled to the frame, the seat assembly comprising: a seat;a base coupled to the seat;a stop coupled to the base and configured to engage a surface to inhibit lateral movement of the seat when a user sits on the seat to perform an exercise
1. An exercise apparatus comprising: a frame;a seat assembly coupled to the frame, the seat assembly comprising: a seat;a base coupled to the seat;a stop coupled to the base and configured to engage a surface to inhibit lateral movement of the seat when a user sits on the seat to perform an exercise; anda biasing element coupled to the base and biased to disengage the stop from the surface when no force is exerted on the seat,wherein the seat assembly is configured to move, relative to the frame, such that the seat is moveable between a first position, which accommodates use of the exercise apparatus by a user sitting on the seat, and a second position, which accommodates use of the exercise apparatus by a user seated in a wheelchair. 2. The exercise apparatus of claim 1, wherein the seat assembly is pivotably attached to the frame. 3. The exercise apparatus of claim 2, wherein a user's weight when the user is sitting on the seat in the first position causes the stop to engage a surface to inhibit lateral movement of the seat. 4. The exercise apparatus of claim 3, wherein the stop comprises a horizontal portion adapted to frictionally engage the surface. 5. The exercise apparatus of claim 4, wherein the frame comprises a retaining element and the stop frictionally engages a surface of the retaining element. 6. The exercise apparatus of claim 5, wherein the biasing element has a vertical bias that raises and disengages the stop when no downward force is exerted on the seat and lowers and engages the stop when the seat is in the first position and a user sits on the seat. 7. The exercise apparatus of claim 4, wherein the surface is a surface on which the exercise apparatus is placed. 8. The exercise apparatus of claim 6, wherein the stop comprises a vertical portion adapted to engage a second surface of the retaining element when the seat is in the first position. 9. The exercise apparatus of claim 7, wherein the seat is moveable between the first and second positions without any vertical lifting force. 10. The exercise apparatus of claim 2, further comprising a resistance system and an arm assembly. 11. A seat assembly for an exercise apparatus, the seat assembly comprising: a seat coupled to a base;a seat support member coupled to the base and configured to be coupled to a frame of an exercise station;a stop coupled to the base and configured to inhibit movement of the seat by engaging at least one surface of the frame or a surface on which the exercise apparatus is placed;a biasing element that is vertically biased to raise the seat and base, and to disengage the stop from the at least one surface when no downward force is exerted on the seat,wherein the seat support member is configured to be pivotably attached to the exercise station such that the seat is moveable between a first position and a second position, wherein the first position accommodates use of an exercise station by a user sitting on the seat and wherein the second position accommodates use of the exercise station by a user seated in a wheelchair. 12. The seat assembly of claim 11, wherein the exercise station comprises a frame and an extension, and wherein the seat support member is configured to be pivotably attached to the extension. 13. The seat assembly of claim 11, wherein the stop comprises a horizontal portion adapted to engage a first surface of a retaining element and a vertical portion adapted to engage a second surface of a retaining element. 14. The seat assembly of claim 13, wherein the horizontal portion is configured to frictionally engage the first surface of the retaining element when the seat is in the first position and a user is sitting on the seat. 15. The seat assembly of claim 13, wherein the vertical portion is configured to engage the second surface of the retaining element when the seat is in the first position. 16. The seat assembly of claim 11, further comprising: a seat anchor rigidly coupled to the seat and moveable relative to the base; anda seat height adjustment mechanism. 17. The seat assembly of claim 16, wherein the seat height adjustment mechanism comprises a lever that extends substantially horizontally beneath the seat and allows a user to place a palm of one hand on an edge of the seat and actuate the lever with the user's fingers. 18. The seat assembly of claim 17, wherein the seat height adjustment mechanism comprises a lever that extends substantially horizontally beneath the seat and terminates at a point that is less than one inch in a horizontal direction from the edge of the seat.
