Abstract
Abstract A striding exerciser includes a pair of post having a middle portion pivotally coupled to an upper portion of a base. The base has a rod rotatably supported in an upper and front portion. The rod has a lever secured to one end and extended upward and has another lever secured to the other end and extended downward. A pair of links pivotally couple the posts to the levers respectively so as to couple the posts together. One of the links is moved forward when the other link moves rearward, and is moved rearward when the other link moves forward.
