Amazon.com Product Description Designed exclusively for the iPool above-ground exercise pool, the FitMax aquatic exercise bike is a terrific therapy tool for individuals and medical clinics. Aquatic therapy offers several benefits over other forms of treatment: it decreases the amount of weight that a patient has to bear, thus reducing the stress placed on the joints; it provides an excellent source of resistance; and it diminishes swelling. As a result, aquatic therapy is especially useful for patients with arthritis, people who are hoping to heal fractured bones, or folks who are battling obesity. The exercise bike works by submerging your legs entirely in water, which gives you the necessary buoyancy and resistance to strengthen your muscle groups while still being sensitive to your injury. The water's hydrostatic pressure, meanwhile, also helps improve your exercise technique, as you're able to better feel the position of your joints during each movement. Finally, the water's warmth helps relax your muscles and vasodilate vessels, thereby increasing the blood flow to your injured areas. Put it all together and there's no better way to treat an injury or increase your strength without risking further damage. The iPool aquatic exercise bike is height-adjustable from 35 to 40 inches, with handlebars that vary from 37 to 42 inches.
