Back Pain Is the #1 Reason People Quit Exercise—Here’s the Upright Solution
Reality check: Back pain is the #1 reason people stop exercising. Traditional seated cardio and high-impact workouts often make it worse. That’s why the Cycle360Trainer™ was designed—to keep people training safely, with strength and posture in mind.
Why traditional cardio fails your back
- Seated bikes encourage slumped posture and lumbar flexion.
- Treadmills add repetitive impact on already stressed joints.
- Minimal core activation = weak spinal support.
The upright alternative: Cycle360Trainer™
The Cycle360Trainer™ is a medically designed standing leg ergometer that blends cardiovascular training and functional strength.
- Upright posture → reduces back compression vs. seated bikes
- Rotational core activation with every pedal stroke
- Joint-friendly resistance that still builds real strength

- Physical therapy clinics: bridge from rehab to full training
- Gyms & trainers: new programming that keeps clients consistent
Don’t quit—change the tool
Exercise should restore you, not break you down. With the Cycle360Trainer™, you stay upright, engage your core, and protect your back—while still building strength and cardio.
