Summary: | A linear motion synchronizing mechanism is for an exercise assembly having elongated first and second rocker arms that pivot with respect to each other about a first pivot axis. A first roller is retained on a first roller supporting member and a second roller retained on a opposing second roller supporting member. The first and second rollers are configured to roll along opposite sides of a linear frame member as the body moves in the first and second directions. A tensioner applies a tensioning force between the first roller supporting member and second roller supporting member so that compression forces are applied on the first and second rollers. The compression forces cause the first and second rollers to mechanically resist pivoting of the first and second rocker arms with respect to each other about the first pivot axis. |
