An exercise machine has a main frame, two base link members supported for cyclical movement on base tracks on the main frame, two handles pivotal about a handle axis on the frame in which the handles are operatively connected to the base link members respectively such that a cyclical movement of the handles drives the cyclical movement of the respective base link members, a foot support carried on each base link member for supporting a respective foot of the user thereon through a walking motion of the user as the base link members are moved cyclically, a torso support on the main frame supporting a torso of the user thereon having one or more degrees of freedom relative to the main frame, and leg linkages connected between the main frame and respective ones of the base link members with bracing to secure legs of the user therein.
