Product Description

TheCardio Accelerator is a revolutionary new product which features armrests that can pivot in a reciprocating motion up and down with resistance in both directions generating physical exercise for various muscle groups. This dual motion resistance provides a muscular workout for one's arms and back (including but not limited to biceps, triceps, pectoral and lateral muscles as wellas one's neck muscles). Like the Original UPWalker, the Cardio Accelerator enables users to walk upright in a safer, more secure posture as compared to traditional walkers and rollators that cause users to hunch over. 

The Cardio Accelerator offers all of the features and benefits of the UPWalker, and more! The Cardio Accelerator is designed for aging consumers who have a desire to stay physically fit through walking and arm exercises that provide a rigorous cardiovascular workout. And now you can do all that that while walking upright with the safety,stability and comfort of the Original UPWalker.

Because you are able to walk using upright posture, you are able to look straight at your friends and loved ones without being hunched over looking at the ground. You can even rest on the armrests in a standing position while having a conversation with others.

The Cardio Accelerator was designed with user convenience in mind and arrives with an easy-to-follow User Guide. After attaching the resistance dampers (see page 7 of the User Guide) and making a few initial adjustments (designed to personalize the Cardio Accelerator to your user preferences) using the Cardio Accelerator requires no more than a few steps to open and close and to use for walking or sitting. All tabs used for making adjustments are clearly defined in gray color. The Unit comes standard with armrest locking pins which allow the Cardio Accelerator to be used just as our existing UPWalker mobility assistance operates, but 3.75 pounds heavier.

The Cardio Accelerator is larger and heavier than traditional rollators and may not be suitable for smaller, frail elderly users or others lacking the strength to maneuver a larger mobility device.

The Cardio Accelerator comes fully-assembled, with the exclusion of the resistance dampers (see page 7 of the User Guide). A tool is provided for this purpose, along with an easy-to-follow User Guide. It can be removed from the box, adjusted to your personal desire andused immediately.
