2022 California Standards for Accessible Design Guide (effective January 1, 2023)
11B-236 Exercise machines and equipment
11B-236.1 General.
At least one of each type of exercise machine and equipment shall comply with Section 11B-1004.
Advisory 11B-236.1 General. Most strength training equipment and machines are considered different types. Where operators provide a biceps curl machine and cable-cross-over machine, both machines are required to meet the provisions in this section, even though an individual may be able to work on their biceps through both types of equipment.
Similarly, there are many types of cardiovascular exercise machines, such as stationary bicycles, rowing machines, stair climbers, and treadmills. Each machine provides a cardiovascular exercise and is considered a different type for purposes of these requirements. ◼
