Standing Position
To get started in the standing position, the Adjustment Pin MUST BE REMOVED
completely and the Slide fully inserted. Place the Adjustment Pin in the top Pin Holder
when not in use to avoid losing it. The stability Bar must be attached. Add a moderate
amount of resistance the first time. Place one hand on a stable surface that you can hold
onto while cycling. Then place one and then both feet on Excy. It’s often easier to
coordinate getting familiar with this workout while starting in reverse first. Always hold
onto a stable surface like a counter top, table, bench, desk, etc. when using Excy in the
standing position. Walking or trekking sticks can be used with Excy, but require athletic
coordination and can be dangerous. Do not use poles with springs.
*WARNING! Improper foot, knee, and elbow angles while using Excy as a recumbent
cycle or arm cycle can result in serious injury or aches and pain. Besides normal muscle
exercise temporary discomfort, if it hurts or is beginning to hurt, then stop doing that
exercise or change that exercise so that it does not hurt.
*WARNING! Failure to attach the stability Bar while using Excy in the standing position
can result in serious injury. Always remove the Adjustment Pin when using the
standing position.
