Since there is no interaction between the bike and the Motiview videos, you can use any type of training device. For example, Nustep, rowing machines, treadmills and elliptical machines are being used together with Motiview.
The majority still use stationary pedals for training. It is also what we recommend since the videos are at a cycling pace.
If users have physical challenges that make it difficult to sit on a normal stationary bike or use a pedal set, we recommend investing in a specially adapted exercise bike.
These bikes have an auxiliary engine, arm and leg trainers and can be used by both able-bodied and people with reduced function such as wheelchair users.
Here are some examples of pedals we can recommend:
These bikes have an auxiliary engine, arm and leg trainers and can be used by both able-bodied and people with reduced functions such as wheelchair users.
TheraTrainer
This is the Thera Trainer Tigo. It is the largest model with both arm and leg trainer in the same bike and various safety settings. Often referred to as an Active/Passive Exercise System, THERA-Trainer offers passive, active and active with assistance/resistance exercise modes.
TheraTrainer also has a smaller model called Mobi. This can be used as a bicycle on the floor, or lifted onto a table and used as an arm trainer. This model also has an auxiliary motor.
Ex N Flex 250 & 300
The Ex N’ Flex EF-250 is very compact, sturdy and easily movable with specially designed wheels and lock downs. In passive mode, the legs are rotated by the electric motor in an orbital motion similar to cycling. In active mode you can assist the motor to move the pedals with your own muscles.
The EF-300 is a smaller more compact motorized exercise therapy device which can be utilized on a tabletop for arms and shoulders as well as on the floor for legs.
MEDUP V2 Active-Passive Cycle Trainer
This upper and lower body active-passive cycle trainer can move between passive, assisted and active modes and isokinetic modes.
These next few bikes do not have an auxiliary engine.
