PHYSICAL THERAPY MODEMS 7
In our continuing series, I felt that I should include free-weight exercises that are relatively easy to use. I am also showing similar variations of previous exercise machines shown on previous pages.
Free-weight exercises can be done on benches and with very light dumbells (iron or wood). Two such exercise groups are for the biceps and the chest. The young man on the left is curling the dumbellls for his biceps on the INCLINED SEATED BENCH that is adjustable to different angles: he can do shoulder and flat-bench presses for his shoulders and chest. The young lady on the right is doing a butterfly motion with very light dumbells on the INCLINE BENCH STANDING. She can also do incline presses
The first two pictures, above, are the SIDE LATERAL RAISE that develop the trapezoid muscles that join the neck muscles. The people, in these pictures, simply sit, place the outside part of their forearms, and raise the pad by raising their elbows.

The young man in the above picture to the right is doing a
SHOULDER PRESS that develops the rest of the shoulders.
There are a variation of JUNGLE JIM (multi-station) machines that accommodate more thatn one person at a time. The young man in the foreground is doing a standing tricep pulldown to develop his triceps. This aids in the pressing exercises.
This another variation of the LAT PULLDOWN the young man is pulling down  in front of his shoulders. He can just as well pull it down behind his shoulders. 6004
A helpful tool may be the ROTARY TORSO to help people with difficulty to turn from one side to another. The young man is holding on to the apparatus and using it to turn his torso from sise to side.
