A striding exercise device includes a base having two elongated parallel tracks which curve upwardly in a constant radial arc, and two footskates which are rotatably supported on the tracks for reciprocating movement thereon. The radial arc generally corresponds to the natural swinging arc of a human leg as the leg pivots about the hip. When the operator stands on the footskates and reciprocates the footskates back and forth along the upwardly curved tracks, the operator's torso is maintained in a stationary and balanced position over the base. The reduction in torso movement substantially eliminates strain on the leg joints, particularly the knee and hip joints, caused by up and down movement of the torso and further substantially eliminates back strain caused by reaching and bending at the waist.

Exerciseur de marche constitué d'une base dotée de deux rails allongés, parallèles et incurvés vers le haut de manière à former un arc, et de deux plaques pour les pieds qui sont installées de manière à glisser sur les rails et à permettre d'effectuer des mouvements de va et vient. L'arc correspond généralement à l'arc de balancement naturel d'une jambe humaine qui bouge à partir de la hanche. Lorsque l'utilisateur de l'appareil est debout sur les plaques pour les pieds et qu'il se sert de celles-ci pour effectuer des mouvements de va et vient sur les rails incurvés vers le haut, son torse maintient une position stationnaire et équilibrée au-dessus de la base. La réduction du mouvement du torse élimine presque entièrement l'effort imposé aux articulations des jambes, en particulier celles des genoux et des hanches, par les mouvements ascendants et descendants du torse, et élimine en grande partie l'effort que doit fournir l'utilisateur pour s'étirer et se pencher à partir de la taille.
