NATURALLY SMOOTH MOVEMENT
With its feature-rich design, the versatile and durable Biodex BioStep 2 can accommodate a wide variety of user profiles, including orthopedic, neuro-rehabilitation, cardiopulmonary, sports medicine, wellness and general strengthening and conditioning programs for all age groups. BioStep 2 is simple to use, requires minimal supervision, and allows exercise to progress at a natural pace.
A safe elliptical trainer
The Biostep 2 elliptical bike offers:
Ideal for the elderly or for pre-ambulation
Ideal for cardiac rehabilitation
Ideal for patients who may experience limp legs during exercise
- Power: Self-powered; no external power requirement at user work rates over 30 watts and 50 rpm; adapter is provided to power system and charge battery during applications below 30 watts and 50 rpm; battery automatically recharges at work rates above 30 watts and50 rpm. AC Adapter included.
The Seat Belt offers support and security for patients with limited torso control. The Seat Belt fits securely around the lower abdomen of each user and is completely adjustable. The retractable seat belt is there when needed and out of way when not.
With the addition of the movable padded armrests, users obtain an added level of comfort and stability when needed. The BioStep 2 can be used with or without the armrests in position. Armrest folds up flush against the side of seat back to provide easy-on and off access.
Like the Foot Strap, a hook and loop strap provides a simple solution to secure a user's hand to the Pivoting Hand grips, enabling controlled motion during exercise.
Help patients and their therapists achieve multiple rehabilitation goals
The smooth, elliptical motion indulges the knees, ankles, hips and lower back… a natural, closed-chain, low-impact functional exercise. The BioStep 2 reduces joint impact as the user does not have to lift and strike their feet on the walking surface. By combining lower limb movement with upper body exercise, the BioStep 2 provides a full body workout in both forward and backward directions, thus involving different muscle groups.
The low impact elliptical motion of the BioStep 2 also helps strengthen muscles important for maintaining function - those muscles specifically associated with mobility, gait, and balance.
BioStep 2 integrates the upper and lower limbs into the cycling movement; patients experience less local muscle fatigue. This achieves similar heart rates at lower perceived exertion rates compared to traditional exercise ergometers. Blood pressure can be checked while the patient continues to exercise by simply releasing one arm while the other three extremities comfortably continue to perform the exercise.
BioStep 2 is ideal for patients who may experience leg limp during exercise. Patients can easily reduce the strain on the involved leg, while keeping the heart rate elevated, by shifting more of the workload to the uninvolved extremities. When the cramps go away, exercise can be transferred, proportionally, to all four extremities.
Confort exceptionnel
L'elliptique semi-allongé BioStep 2 est naturellement doux et continu, offrant un confort exceptionnel. Son mouvement elliptique à faible impact réduit le changement de direction saccadé de démarrage / arrêt souvent associé à d'autres steppers couchés, éliminant ainsi le besoin pour les utilisateurs de lever ou de frapper leurs pieds sur la palette. Le cadre traversant, l'affichage facile à utiliser et la conception robuste et confortable font du BioStep 2 le choix évident pour l'entraînement croisé.
Bien-être et conditionnement
BioStep 2 offre un entraînement corporel total sans impact, sûr et confortable dans les directions avant et arrière, ce qui le rend idéal pour le conditionnement aérobie général de votre population adulte.
