NuStep® UE8PRO Upper Body Ergometer

The NuStep® UE8PRO Upper Body Ergometer delivers accessible, low-impact upper-body cardiovascular and strengthening exercise from three different positions—seated, standing, or directly from a wheelchair. Designed for physical therapy, rehabilitation, adaptive fitness, senior living, medical fitness, wellness, and commercial fitness environments, the UE8PRO combines exceptional accessibility with advanced exercise programming and real-time performance feedback.

At the center of the UE8PRO's inclusive design is its innovative swivel drive train, which can be repositioned to accommodate different exercise positions without requiring removal of the seat. Users can transition between seated and standing exercise, while wheelchair users can access the ergometer directly for an independent upper-body workout.

With bidirectional arm movement, low-inertia startup, and 15 adjustable resistance levels, the UE8PRO accommodates users across a broad range of functional and fitness abilities.

Seated, Standing & Direct Wheelchair Access

The NuStep® UE8PRO is designed to provide flexible access to upper-body exercise from three positions:

• Seated – Exercise from the ergonomically designed integrated seat

• Standing – Reposition the swivel drive train for upper-body exercise from a standing position

• Wheelchair – Access the drive train directly from a wheelchair without removing the UE8PRO seat

The adjustable swivel drive train moves to accommodate different user positions, providing facilities with a versatile upper-body exercise solution without requiring time-consuming seat removal or equipment reconfiguration.

A low step-through design further improves accessibility for users exercising from the integrated seat.

Real-Time Power & Symmetry Biofeedback

Integrated sensor technology measures upper-body power and symmetry in real time, providing valuable visual feedback during exercise.

The Balanced Power program measures performance between the user's left and right sides, helping identify power imbalances and providing immediate visual feedback that can be particularly valuable during rehabilitation and therapeutic exercise.

This real-time biofeedback provides clinicians and users with objective performance information while encouraging more balanced upper-body movement.

Advanced Dual-Touchscreen Console

The UE8PRO features an advanced dual-touchscreen console with an HD display and intuitive user interface. Exercise programs, performance data, and real-time feedback are presented in an easy-to-use format designed to keep users engaged throughout their workouts.

Programs and features include:

• Quick Start – Get on and begin exercising without setting specific goals

• Pace Partner – Helps users maintain a consistent exercise pace

• NuStep® Charts – Displays exercise statistics based on performance

• Trail Runner – Provides an immersive exercise experience featuring locations around the world

• Balanced Power – Measures upper-body power and identifies left-to-right imbalances

Bidirectional Upper-Body Exercise

The UE8PRO provides bidirectional arm movement, allowing users to exercise in both forward and reverse directions.

Combined with 15 adjustable resistance levels, this provides flexibility for rehabilitation protocols, cardiovascular conditioning, upper-body strengthening, endurance training, and general wellness programs.

The low-inertia startup requires minimal effort to initiate movement, making the UE8PRO accessible to individuals with varying levels of upper-body strength and functional ability.

360° Swivel & Reclining Seat

For seated exercise, the NuStep® UE8PRO features an ergonomically designed padded seat with contoured back support to provide a stable and supportive exercise position.

The seat swivels 360 degrees and locks every 45 degrees, helping users approach and transfer onto the machine from multiple positions.

The seat also reclines an additional 12 degrees, allowing users to customize their exercise position for comfort and individual needs. Seat positioning is easily adjustable to accommodate users of different heights and body sizes.

500 lb. User Weight Capacity

The UE8PRO supports users from 75 to 500 lbs. and accommodates heights ranging from 4'6" to 6'7", providing an inclusive upper-body exercise solution for a diverse patient and user population.

Its combination of high weight capacity, adjustable seating, standing exercise capability, and direct wheelchair access makes the UE8PRO particularly well suited for rehabilitation facilities, hospitals, senior living communities, adaptive fitness programs, and medical fitness environments.
