T5XR: Key Features

Smooth stepping motion

Enjoy the ultra quiet operation and smoother stepping motion of NuStep's new belt drive train. This innovative system avoids the noise of typical exercise machines and offers a smooth ride at any stepping rate.

Ergonomic body position

NuStep product architecture is built around a Human Factors optimized exercise position. Feel the difference in the relative position of the seat, hands, and feet, which remain ergonomically consistent as the NuStep is adjusted to accommodate almost any user.

15 levels of resistance

Begin your exercise transformation at lower levels or challenge yourself with the power of increased resistance with 15 workload levels and a range of 5 to 1400 watts. Versatile and challenging for everyone from deconditioned or disabled users to elite athletes.

Large ergonomic seat

Experience greater comfort and better support with the large ergonomic seat, which includes 18" of seat width and a contoured back. Users with back injuries, chronic pain, weight issues and many other conditions will benefit greatly from the ease of use and support of a comfortable, seated exercise position.

Reclining seat back

Use the convenient adjustment lever to lean back and enjoy the comfort of an extended seat angle designed especially to support larger and taller users. Available exclusively on the T5^XR, the seat back reclines up to 12° to suit user preference.

360° seat swivel with locking intervals

Variable hand grip distance

A breakthrough in design innovation, the distance between the NuStep hand grips increases automatically as the arms are adjusted to greater lengths. The angled arm design allows this variability and improves comfort and ergonomic consistency, particularly for taller users.

Hand grip rotation

Quick start with no button press required

Even with an all new display console, it is as simple as ever to use a NuStep with the new quick start mode that does not require any button pressing. Just get on and go! The display console will power up and begin tracking your workout data as soon as you start NuStepping.

Comprehensive workout data

You can track and monitor your progress with comprehensive workout data on the NuStep display console. Steps per minute, calories burned, time, distance, watts, METS, and heart rate are among the data now available on the T5 models. Data can also be tracked for up to 200 users or workout sessions, and results can be exported via USB to a flash drive and to a spreadsheet application on your computer.

13 workout programs

The new display from NuStep will keep you engaged for many hours of beneficial exercise through 13 distinct workout programs: quick start, manual mode, pace partner, five hill profiles, target heart rate control, constant speed (isokinetic), constant power, and two exercise testing protocols. These programs make exercise fun and engaging for users of all function levels, and they can also be used in healthcare, wellness, and research environments to assess fitness levels and measure positive exercise outcomes.

Flex foot system

Use the easy release lever to unlock the foot pedals and activate the innovative flex foot system. This allows dorsi/plantar foot flexion and simulates the natural walking motion more accurately. Or use the lever to lock the system into one of three angles and keep the foot pedals stationary.
