EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS
OxyStepper II Exercises
As a lower body resistance device, it will enable the user to tone and strengthen the muscles in
the lower leg including gastrocnemius and soleus (muscles of the calf), and anterior tibialis (the
muscle in the front of the lower leg). It will increase flexibility of the ankle joint and increase
blood circulation to the entire foot.
As an upper body resistance device it will tone and strengthen the muscles in the upper arm
including triceps (muscles located on the posterior side of the upper arm), deltoids (the muscles
that wrap around the shoulder joint, and the muscles of the forearm.
Leg Exercise
Place OxyStepper II on a stable, level surface approximately 6 inches directly in front of
you. For individuals who are taller than average move OxyStepper II a couple inches further
away. Use a chair that will not slip. Sit up straight during exercise.
Do not stand on the OxyStepper II. Only exercise in seated position.
Arm Exercise
For upper body usage, it is recommended that the device be placed directly in front of the user
on a non slip surface. Grab the top of the pedal with your hands. If your arms are long, you can
rest your elbows on the table top. You can alternate left to right using your arms to push the
pedal toward the surface in a smooth, rhythmic motion.
