Simulating a natural movement of walking up a flight
of stairs, the NexStep offers young and especially mature adults
a safe, stable aerobic exercise alternative. From a seated stable
position, the NexStep's smooth, ultra quiet operation provides unparalleled
comfort and satisfaction in a recumbent cardio machine.
The postural stabilization of the NexStep provides biomechanical
integrity throughout the movement pattern. Large fixed cupped foot
pedals fully support the feet, minimizing plantar and dorsal flexion,
allowing the user to perform a closed kinetic chain exercise pattern.
NexStep is engineered to reduce excessive shearing, joint reaction,
and compressive forces at the knee and hip for superior comfort
and safety.
Magnum's NexStep with upper body delivers a great cardio
workout with total body involvement. Through the use of a linkage
system, Magnum has attached arms to our unique recumbent stepper
providing the user with three options. Total body movement, lower
body only, or upper body only.
By adjusting the seat, the user can control the intensity
delivered to the muscles involved. Move the seat forward to ensure
greater muscular involvement. Move the seat back to minimize muscular
fatigue. The recumbent design eliminates anatomical compensation
due to fatigue, keeping the user in a fully functional position
at all times whether the seat is in the utmost forward position
or back as far as possible.
