         6 . Machine according to  claim 1 , characterized in that said elastic element ( 4 ) is an elastic closed ring and the machine is provided with means for fixing said ring ( 4 ) to said base or platform ( 2 ) and said handle ( 3 ), said means comprising pairs of hollow half bodies or half-parts ( 23   a,    23   b,    31 ,  32 ) suitable to receive an are defining the end of said ring. 
     
     
         7 . Machine according to  claim 1 , characterized in that said base or platform is provided with a slot ( 21 ) capable of being crossed by said elastic element ( 4 ). 
     
     
         8 . Machine according to  claim 5 , characterized in that said base or platform ( 2 ) is provided with a seat ( 29 ) which is complementary shaped in respect to a housing body ( 23 ) formed by two of said pairs of half-bodies ( 23   a,    23   b ) and capable of blocking an end of said elastic element ( 4 ). 
     
     
         9 . Machine according to  claim 1 , characterized in that said handle ( 3 ) consists of a main body ( 39 ) of substantially cylindrical shape at the ends and with a small section in the middle part, part which is intended to receive a cover ( 38 ) that, when it is fixed to the main body ( 39 ), blocks said elastic element ( 4 ) to handle ( 3 ). 
     
     
         10 . Machine according to  claim 1 , characterized in that includes an extensible framework ( 5 ) that can be attached to the base ( 2 ) to define an anchor point. 
     
     
         11 . Machine according to  claim 1 , characterized in that it is provided with a timer and/or a cardio-frequency device and/or audio players. 
     
     
         12 . Machine according to  claim 1 , characterized in that said platform ( 2 ) is provided with one or more load cells ( 200 ) designed to measure the effort exerted by the user on the same platform, means being provided for displaying ( 270 ) its measured value. 
     
     
         13 . Machine according to  claim 1 , characterized in that said platform ( 2 ) is provided with one or more load cells ( 200 ) designed to measure the weight of the user, means being provided for displaying ( 270 ) its measured value.
