1. An arm position adjustment mechanism for exercise equipment, comprising:
a rotatable unit having multiple pairs of diametrically opposite grooves corresponding to multiple rotational angles of an arm of the exercise equipment;
a locking mechanism structurally coupled to the rotatable unit, the locking mechanism being pivotable between an open position and a locking position, wherein in the locking position a cylindrical locking rod of the locking mechanism is received within one of the pairs of diametrically opposite grooves and is pressed against the pair of diametrically opposite grooves with the aid of a fastening element; and
a lock controller operably connected to a knob, the lock controller configured to move the locking mechanism into the open position in response to manipulation of the knob, wherein in the open position the rotatable unit is allowed to rotate for adjustment of a rotational angle of the arm.
