The NuStep T4r Series
The NuStep T4r is a compact, low-impact recumbent cross trainer designed for rehabilitation clinics, physiotherapy practices, senior wellness centres, and home care environments across Canada.
Its intuitive design and robust construction support users of virtually any fitness or mobility level, making it ideal for rehab, geriatric fitness, and general functional training.
The unique movement of the NuStep T4r simulates a natural walking pattern by coordinating arm and leg motion in a single fluid movement, providing full-body engagement with reduced joint stress.
The NuStep T4r is an ideal option for clinics that work with post-stroke patients or patients with limited mobility. Multiple accessibility options ensure that the NuStep T4r can be used by any patient, regardless of current limb abilities.
Users of the NuStep T4r trainer need only one working limb to operate the T4r when paired with accessibility options (see below). All NuStep systems feature a seat with a swivel for easy access and wheelchair transfer.
