NATURALLY SMOOTH MOVEMENT
With its feature-rich design, the versatile and durable Biodex BioStep 2 can accommodate a wide variety of user profiles, including orthopedic, neuro-rehabilitation, cardiopulmonary, sports medicine, wellness and general strengthening and conditioning programs for all age groups. BioStep 2 is simple to use, requires minimal supervision, and allows exercise to progress at a natural pace.
Help patients and their therapists achieve multiple rehabilitation goals
The smooth, elliptical motion indulges the knees, ankles, hips and lower back… a natural, closed-chain, low-impact functional exercise. The BioStep 2 reduces joint impact as the user does not have to lift and strike their feet on the walking surface. By combining lower limb movement with upper body exercise, the BioStep 2 provides a full body workout in both forward and backward directions, thus involving different muscle groups.
The low impact elliptical motion of the BioStep 2 also helps strengthen muscles important for maintaining function - those muscles specifically associated with mobility, gait, and balance.
BioStep 2 integrates the upper and lower limbs into the cycling movement; patients experience less local muscle fatigue. This achieves similar heart rates at lower perceived exertion rates compared to traditional exercise ergometers. Blood pressure can be checked while the patient continues to exercise by simply releasing one arm while the other three extremities comfortably continue to perform the exercise.
BioStep 2 is ideal for patients who may experience leg limp during exercise. Patients can easily reduce the strain on the involved leg, while keeping the heart rate elevated, by shifting more of the workload to the uninvolved extremities. When the cramps go away, exercise can be transferred, proportionally, to all four extremities.

Exceptional comfort
The BioStep 2 semi-recumbent elliptical is naturally smooth and continuous, providing exceptional comfort. Its low impact elliptical motion reduces the jerky start / stop change of direction often associated with other recumbent steppers, eliminating the need for users to lift or stomp their feet on the paddle. The pass-through frame, easy-to-use display, and sturdy, comfortable design make the BioStep 2 the obvious choice for cross training.
Well-being and conditioning
BioStep 2 provides an impact-free, safe and comfortable total body workout in both forward and reverse directions, making it ideal for general aerobic conditioning in your adult population.
Secure
