 a means for generating a resisting torque; 
 first transmission means and second transmission means for transmitting the resisting torque, which are installed at least partly inside said pivoting mast, wherein the first transmission means comprise a first transmission rope or a first transmission cable configured to be used when said pivoting mast is in a vertical position, one of the ends of the first transmission rope or first transmission cable extending out of the pivoting mast via a first face of the faces of the pivoting mast, to allow connecting at least one exercise accessory to the means for generating a resisting torque, while the second end of the first transmission rope or first transmission cable is wound around a first winding drum, the second transmission means comprising a second transmission rope or a second transmission cable configured to be used when the pivoting mast is in a horizontal position, one of the ends of the second transmission rope or second transmission cable extending out of the pivoting mast via a second face of the faces of the pivoting mast, opposite to the first face, to allow connecting at least one exercise accessory to the means for generating a resisting torque, while the second end of the second transmission rope or second transmission cable is wound around a second winding drum; 
 the means for generating a resisting torque being connected to the transmission means via a belt or a chain; 
 a folding or removable arm, including at least one return pulley for cooperating with the second transmission rope or the second transmission cable; 
 a support base which supports, at least partly, the weight of said pivoting mast and which comprises positioning and maintaining means configured for positioning and maintaining the pivoting mast in the vertical and horizontal positions; 
 a pivot link, with a horizontal axle, arranged between the support base and the pivoting mast, configured to move the pivoting mast from a horizontal position to a vertical position and vice versa. 
   
     
     
         10 . The device according to  claim 9 , wherein the first range of removable accessories comprises at least a rope or cable return pulley, a footrest, and a support foot. 
     
     
         11 . The device according to  claim 9 , wherein the second range of removable accessories comprises at least a seat as well as a weight support. 
     
     
         12 . The device according to  claim 9 , wherein that the support base is secured to a fixed support. 
     
     
         13 . The device according to  claim 12 , wherein the fixed support is a post. 
     
     
         14 . The device according to  claim 9 , wherein the mast includes at least one connection means configured to connect, using a cable, a weight support to an exercise member, the connection means being arranged on the movable carriage or directly on the weight support. 
     
     
         15 . The device according to  claim 12 , wherein the pivot link is configured to be detachable, so that the pivoting mast can be separated from the support base and used independently of the support base. 
     
     
         16 . The device according to  claim 15 , wherein the pivot link includes a latch. 
     
     
         17 . The device according to  claim 15 , wherein the device includes a third range of accessories comprising a module provided with wheels and a support foot and wherein the third range of accessories are shaped to cooperate with the pivoting mast when the pivoting is separated from said support base. 
     
     
         18 . The device according to  claim 16 , wherein the device includes a third range of accessories comprising a module provided with wheels and a support foot and wherein the third range of accessories are shaped to cooperate with the pivoting mast when the pivoting is separated from said support base.
