Senior Living Fitness Equipment

At NuStep, we know that regular exercise is key for older adults to promote functional fitness and support independence. Our line of commercial fitness equipment for senior communities and senior centers provides a safe and effective way for older adults to get the exercise they need to stay healthy, active and engaged in life.

We proudly design fitness equipment that meets older adults where they are in their fitness journey. Our recumbent cross trainers, upper body ergometers and recumbent bikes accommodate older adults across the full range of functional abilities and fitness levels. Accessible and easy to use, NuStep machines deliver a low-impact cardiovascular workout that works to build strength, increase endurance and improve mobility. Additionally, the user-friendly workout encourages regular use so that exercise can be a key part of active aging.

Meeting the Exercise Needs of Residents

NuStep’s recumbent cross trainers, upper body ergometers and recumbent bikes are designed to meet the exercise needs of residents of virtually all fitness levels and functional abilities.

  • Safe and Easy Access: Step-through design and 360-degree swivel seat promote independent use.

  • Maximize Engagement: User friendly design encourages participation and consistency.

Finding the Right Equipment for Your Senior Facility

NuStep’s commercial fitness equipment serves a wide spectrum of providers across multiple senior settings:

Senior Communities

Independent living, assisted living and memory care communities use NuStep equipment to support wellness programming across the entire resident population. The inclusive design of our recumbent cross trainers, upper body ergometers and exercise bikes allow residents to access and use the machines independently, or with minimal staff assistance.

Senior Centers

Senior centers that serve older adults with a wide range of abilities use NuStep to offer accessible fitness equipment without specialized instruction. Tailored for wellness programs as well as individual use, even members who have never exercised on a recumbent machine before can get on and go, beginning their first session within minutes.

Why Senior Settings Choose NuStep

Inclusive design for diverse users

NuStep recumbent cross trainers deliver full-body cardiovascular and strength exercise from a recumbent position. The low step-through frame,* 360-degree swivel seat, low starting force and adjustable resistance levels accommodate older adults at virtually every fitness level or functional ability. Whether it’s a frail resident in assisted living or an active 85-year-old at a senior center, each can achieve an effective NuStep workout that fulfills their specific needs. That versatility is what makes our fitness equipment a practical choice for older adult settings.

*T4r models do not have low step-through frames.

Stability built into the design

In addition to the low step-through frame and 360-degree swivel seat, NuStep equipment also has a locking feature and sturdy grab bar to promote stability during on and off access. The low force start up and user-controlled step length also contribute to a sense of stability for users.

Built for structured wellness programming

NuStep equipment fits into group exercise sessions, fall prevention and functional fitness programs, as well as independent use. The NuStep Companion app, available on iOS and Android, tracks individual performance data across sessions, giving wellness coordinators or senior center members a measurable record of activity and progress over time. For communities running formal wellness programs, that data record can support resident engagement.

Fitness equipment built to last

In high-use settings where machines are used for hours every day, durability matters. Selecting commercial fitness equipment means accounting for total cost of ownership, not just purchase price. We stand behind our products and back them with a 10-year, 3-year parts and 1-year labor warranty. Our technical support team is staffed by experienced product specialists who consistently achieve high satisfaction ratings with the customers they’ve assisted.
