| Abstract: |
A versatile exercising machine, comprising two symmetric handles each having mounting holes at one side for mounting a compression link or three elastic cords, and two pairs of T-shaped blocks respectively releasably connected to the two symmetric handles at two opposite ends thereof. By combining the two pairs of T-shaped blocks with the two symmetric handles, two stands are formed for push-up exercise. By attaching the compression link to the two handles, an exercising unit is provided for exercising the muscles of the muscles of the upper and lower extremities and the abdomen. By attaching the elastic cords to the two handles, a chest expander is formed for developing the muscles of the chest.

| Claim |
I claim:
1. A versatile exercising machine, comprising:
- a pair of symmetric handles, each having two mounting holes and a notched through-hole at one side, said notched through-hole being disposed between said two holes, and two opposite connecting ends at an opposite side, said connecting ends each having a recces transversely disposed at the middle, and a curved guide slot vertically piercing through said recess, said curved guide slot terminating in a locking hole at one end;
- a compression link comprissing a sleeve having two bolts fastened therein at two opposite end, and a compression spring received inside said sleeve and stopped between said two bolts, said two bolts each having a notches end extending out of said sleeve for fastening in said notched through-hole;
- three elastic cords each having two fasteners respectively secured thereto at two opposite ends for releasably fastening in said mounting holes and said notched through-hole;
- four T-shaped blocks, being each comprised of a hand-hold and a side block, said hand-hold having a stub mortise at one end for fastening said side block through tenon-and-mortise joint, and an opposite end releasably secured in said recess of said connecting ends by a spring coil and a stepped bolt, permitting said hand-hold to be firmly retained at an expanded position relative to said handles or at a collapsed position to closely attach to said handles, by means of the control of said stepped bolt in said locking hole and said guide slot; and
- wherein said handles, compression link, elastic cords and T-shaped blocks can be partly or respectively connected together to form into a variety of structures for exercising the muscles of the chest, the back, the abdomen, the upper extremity and the lower extremity respectively.
