T4r Recumbent Cross Trainer - NuStep
Total-body fitness, reimagined for every ability level.
Since 1993, NuStep has led the industry with the first total-body recumbent trainer — a machine built to serve users of virtually any fitness level or functional ability. The NuStep T4r Recumbent Cross Trainer carries that legacy forward, combining a natural seated position with a smooth stepping motion to deliver a full-body, low-impact workout that's equally at home in a clinical setting or a home gym.
Why Choose the NuStep T4r?
The T4r isn't just a cardio machine — it's a versatile training tool trusted across healthcare facilities, wellness centers, senior living residences, and home gym studios worldwide. It's commonly used for:
- Physical therapy (PT) sessions
- Cardiopulmonary rehabilitation
- Cardiovascular conditioning
- Sports medicine and injury recovery
- General total-body fitness
Because the seated stepping motion works all major muscle groups without high-impact stress on the joints, the T4r is a go-to choice for rehab professionals and everyday users alike.
Key Features
Multifunctional, Total-Body Training
Use your arms alone, your legs alone, or combine both for a full upper- and lower-body workout. Add resistance training to engage even more muscle groups and burn more calories per session.
Personalized Range of Motion
- Maximum step length of 8.5" — shorten your stride anytime for a more comfortable range of motion
- Push with your whole foot to target the quadriceps and hamstrings
- Push with just the balls of your feet to isolate the calf muscles
Quiet, Frictionless Resistance
Powered by an all-belt drive system, the T4r offers 10 resistance settings for smooth, quiet workouts that scale with your fitness level.
Two Built-In Exercise Programs
- Quick Start – Hop on and begin exercising immediately, no setup required
