- Hi folks.
I'm Bob Schrupp,
physical therapist.
- Brad Heineck,
physical therapist.
- We are the most famous physical therapist on the internet.
- In our opinion, of course.
- We're getting busy.
We're getting aerobic.
Today we're talking about the best
watch TV and cardio workout ever.
Plus, it's easy on the joints.
- There you go Bob and comfortable.
- Brad and I have discovered
a piece of workout equipment
that you can definitely use while watching TV,
because it is whisper quiet.
I'm stopped now and now...
Brad, I can't hear a thing.
I can't even hear that you're working out.
- No, I can hear my breathing.
- That's about it, right.
- Yeah.
- We'll go over this,
go over the details.

Also, go to our website,
bobandbrad.com
because this week we are actually
giving away one of these devices.
It's called the LT.
Well, this is the LT3 Freestep.
- Teeter.
- By Teeter.
- I think we're giving it away the LT1.
Which is very similar to this.
- Right, yeah.
- Go to
bobandbrad.com
You'll go to the giveaway section.
You sign up for there.
You can also sign up for Facebook.
It'll be pinned to the top of the page as a contest.
- There you go.
- Go to Instagram,
Twitter,
or TikTok
if you want a 60 second version of our program.
Nice toss.
- Nice.
- Brad, I want to compare it a little bit to the Newstep.
- Sure.
- Brad and I have been using the Newstep for what?
- 15, 20 years.
- I'd say at least 20 years.
- In the clinic.
- In the clinic,
and we love this device.
- Right, it is.
- It's so versatile for patients.
We liked the handle,
the legs,
just different resistance.
- It's comfortable, it's safe.
- It's comfortable.
You can get people into it really easy.
But, the price.
- Yeah.
- That's the big negative.
It's fine for a commercial setting.
- Right.
- The cost is going to be
anywhere between like three and $8,000.
- I don't know if you can get one for three anymore.
- I don't know if you'd get one for three anymore either.
It might be a used one.
You could buy this one by the way,
because we're going to sell it.
This, by the way, is much less.
The LT1,
which this is not
but it's very similar,
is 7.99 on Amazon.
I think it's 7.59,
if you go to their website
or 7.49.
It's cheaper if you go to the Teeter website,
we'll have the link down below.
The LT3,
which Brad has here,
1,049.
If you buy it on Amazon.
I think it's a little like 900 something.
If you are close to a thousand,
if you buy it on their website.
- It's a good gift.
- Yeah.
So you're going be able to get similar motion.
By the way Brad,
you're the mechanical guy.
So what do you think of the
how well this is built?
- It's very smooth.
I like the adjustments.
They've got nice...
You could adjust these handles in and out
and you can also turn them upside down.
So you get different positions in that
not only that it locks in with a pin.
So you got a positive way to lock it.
Then you tight it in
and it keeps the wobble off.
I appreciate that.
And the same thing goes with
adjusting the seat up and down.
Bob six foot six,
he fit on here nicely.
- I fit on there easily.
- I'm five foot nothing.
I fit on it easily.
So it's nice and adjustable.
I'm not,
I'm five ten really.
You could probably get someone here four and a half foot.
We didn't test it,
but I'm pretty sure you probably could.
- Also, I don't think I was at the limit for height either.
It could probably be someone a little taller.
What I liked about Brad,
it was with the resistance really low.
Do you want to show that?
- Yeah.
- How you can really go at it.
- This really trips Bob's trigger
when you go really fast.
- Yeah.
Well, you could not even our arms,
you can just use your legs.
- Yeah, we can just do this too.
I just do arms
when I do work with patients if they have a bad knee
or whatever.
- Obviously, it's very easy on the joints.
- Yes.
- Again, there's no real pounding.
There's no real a large amount of weight bearing either.
- It's got a nice back support
and it is adjustable.
Look at this.
No, I don't think anybody's going to go
this far back with it,
but it's got a nice lumbar support,
which I really appreciate.
- What I've been liking to do during the winter now
is I do use the trainer for my bike.
But, I do not like the lack of back support.
- Right, yeah.
- I actually don't bike every day
because I don't want my back flexed when I'm working out.
- I know.
- Brad's a biker.
- I agree.
That's just one thing I don't like about,
but I'll probably have to get a recumbent bike someday.
- Yeah.
That's why I looked at that...
Brad and I were talking,
this is not probably for the high end athletes.
- Yeah.
If you're like a five or 10 K runner
or marathoner
and you're competing
or trying to get...
Unless you're just starting out
this is for the average person.
- The average person.
Great for rehab.
I'd say if you're 40 and older
and especially if you're up in that zone where we are now,
this is a great one to do .
- I shouldn't get off
so they can see more of it.
- It really takes away your excuses for working out
because you can jump on this thing
and who can't watch a couple...
Start binging on Netflix
while you workout a couple hours?
It does have wheels on it.
If you lift it up.
Brad, I don't know if you've got a bad, are you okay?
- It's not that heavy
and I'm careful about lifting it.
- Wheels around.
- Yeah.
The resistance is right back here.
You can easily just reach back
and it has a little detail.
You hear it go
click, click, click like a ratchet.
I don't know if you probably
won't be able to hear it with this
unless I stick my mic down.
Do you guys want to hear it?
- No.
- The stride is nice and fluid,
won't you say Brad?
- Yeah.
- It's almost a little bit elliptical.
- Yeah.
- I saw there was actually
quite a few ratings on Amazon already, Brad.
442 ratings.
- Oh, really?
- They gave it 4.6.
I would say assembly is a little bit tough.
Mike, our camera man.
He's not here today.
Liz is with us,
but Mike had a tough time.
Mike is not mechanical.
- I can tell he didn't even tighten the bolts up on it.
- Yeah.
Brad's mechanical so he did it.
The average person that mechanical person did it,
but it wasn't the best fun.
Let's see,
what else did Mike say?
Easy to use.
- The best fun.
- Oh, by the way, the display Brad.
- Yeah.
- It's got a...
Isn't it just alternating?
- Yeah.
It revolves through calories, time, distance.
- It's got speed, time, distance, calories.
- Yeah.
They're big numbers.
I can see the numbers.
The little number says,
distance DST.
My eyes aren't good enough without my glasses.
I can clearly see the time,
29 minutes,
28 seconds,
29 seconds.
- See now being on the elder side of life.
I'd prefer a simple display like that.
I don't want to hook it up to my phone.
Maybe you're younger.
You want to have some app that goes along with this,
but I like the simplicity of it.
- You turned 60
and all of a sudden you turned into a senior citizen.
- That's right.
I'm an old man on the porch,
yelling at people to get off my yard.
So anything else Brad?
I think it's great for,
by the way,
if you've had any joint replacements,
we talked about it,
easy on the joints.
You had a hip or knee replacement.
This is your baby.
- Yeah.
You would adjust the seat
so that your hip or your knee
has the right amount adjustment.
You'll just take it easy.
You could just go back and forth like this,
using your arms,
to get that knee to move
if you had a knee replacement.
I would not be afraid at all to do that with a patient.
- Yeah.
That's what we often do with them.
I have them do short strides
and every so often
do a longer one.
- There you go.
- People who've had knee replacements,
especially after they're going through...
Love this thing because they're in control.
They determine how much stretch they're going to put on it.
They're always thrilled
to use this machine right away
and thrilled that I'm not putting my hands on them.
- Yes.
- Anything else Brad?
- No.
- By the way,
if you're thinking about buying one,
go ahead.
If you win one,
they'll just reimburse you.
- You mean if you buy it
and you happen to be the person that wins,
they're going to send you the money back?
- Sure.
We're going to tell them to do that.
We didn't preagree upon it,
but I'm sure they will.
- Everyone else does.
- Everybody always does.
Remember,
Brad and I can fix just about anything.
- Except for?
- A broken heart.
- We're working on that too.
- Heard you're always working on a broken heart.
- That's a good thing.
We're going to get going on it.
Let's see.
Let's have a race.
Let's go!
- Let's go!
- I want to shift into hyper speed.
- All right,
see you folks.
