Abstract
A compact weight lifting machine includes a lift bar assembly including a lift cable and a lift bar which operates through the lift cable to lift selected weights from a weight stack responsive to either upward or downward movement of the lift bar. A seat assembly is positioned beneath the lift bar and includes first and second sections selectively positionable to support a user to perform a variety of exercises. A leg extension/leg curl mechanism located at one end of the seat assembly and a butterfly mechanism located at the opposite end of the seat assembly also operate through the lift cable to lift selected weights from the weight stack.
