A training machine for enabling the exerciser to exercise under a load appropriate for the individual exercise capability and physical function of the exerciser. The exerciser (E) enters a desired velocity-load characteristic into a load characteristic input device (), and the velocity-load characteristic is stored in the load characteristic memory device (). A load instruction value is determined according to the velocity-load characteristic and to the velocity inputted from a velocity calculation means () into the load characteristic memory device () and transmitted to a control means (). The control means () rotates a servomotor () with a torque instruction value corresponding to the load instruction value. A movement mechanism () converts the rotation into linear movement to move a movable unit (). With this, the exerciser can carry out training of reciprocal movement.
