(DE19723099-A1)      The exercise machine (1) e.g. bicycle has a posture portion (2) fitted with a positioner (61,62) to position an exercise configuration in which the user can perform a specific training exercise, and a movable machine portion (3) accessible to the user when he/she assumes an exercise position. The user applies an effort e.g. pedalling (31) designed to oppose, for the performance of the specific exercise, a resistance offered by the exercise machine.    A data reader (7) reads a portable data storage memory in the form of e.g. a card (5) which stores the data relative to physical measurements and/or to performance techniques concerning the user and/or the specific exercise. A motor drive adjusts (Y',Y",Z) the relative position between the posture and machine portions, according to a controller which acts in turn according to protocol data read from the memory.    ADVANTAGE -   Automatic self-adjustment via receipt of data about user and/or exercises to be performed.
