Exercise is essential to our good health and well being! I found getting the daily exercise I need was difficult UNTIL I got my new Theracycle 100 Leg Exerciser Fitness Bike. Theracycle is a unique and affordable motor driven exercise bike that helps me get exercise sitting in my wheelchair right in my own home.
I used to love riding my Mongoose BMX and never thought I’d ever peddle a bike again. Then last week my good friend Jamie of
Jamie & Crew let me try his Theracycle 100 Fitness Bike. The best part is I could ride it while I stayed in my chair. My parents bought a Theracylce for me to use at home because they know how important exercise is for me.
Rich Blumenthal, Vice President, Business Development and Heather Mirisola, Business Development of Theracycle kindly delivered it to my home Friday. Rich and Heather were WONDEFUL and the bike is AMAZING!
Theracycle has a whisper-quiet motor that moves the peddles with you, helping to get the gentle exercise you need. The user friendly computerized control panel has alternate speed settings up to 15mph. You can also choose how much to allow the motor to assist you. Rich and Heather recommend I begin using the bike at a lower speed and increase it gradually as I get used to it.
Theracycle has available two different bikes designed especially for people with physical disabilities: Theracycle 100, a bike you can exercise right in your chair and Theracycle 200, a stationary exercise bike that provides a full body workout.
- Theracycle 100 provides the benefits of a lower body workout for people who have difficulty getting the exercise they need. Even for people with limited or no movement ability, the Theracycle’s motor-assisted motion provides muscle toning that can improve circulation, flexibility, and general well-being.
- Theracycle 200 is a motorized exercise bike made for persons with physically disabilities who are able to get on the bike and maintain their balance. The Theracyle 200 will help fight fatique, improve your circulation, flexibility, endurance and overall well being. With the Theracyle 200, you have the power to exercise your entire body and lead a healthier life, even if you are physically challenged.
If you have physical limitations and want to maintain your good health with exercise I highly recommend a Theracycle. For more information you can click on Theracycle’s website @ http://www.theracycle.com/.
I give the Theracycle 100 Leg Exerciser Fitness Bike FIVE STARS for wheelchair access to exercise and physical well being! Rich and Heather deserve FIVE STARS for their kindness, sensitivity and caring about the physical well being of others. Thank You Rich and Heather!

Hi Robin,
Nice to hear from you. We love your blog too and do have a link on our Links tab on top of my site. After you click on it then click on Section II – UK Helpful Links you will see your link. I’d be happy to add another link on our main page under “Kenny’s Links’ and it will show up on every page.
My mom is on vacation for a week and says hi to you too. Glad you have a bike similar to my Theracycle 100 Leg Exerciser. I also find it relaxing and therapeutic! I’m also on facebook so maybe we can link up there too!

Hi Heather,
Ken, Kenny’s dad and I were just saying last night how wonderful the Theracycle is for Kenny and others with physical disabilities. In the past 21 years that Kenny has been physically disabled we have never seen him so enthusiastic about exercising as he is on the Theracycle. I’m sure it’s helping improve his muscle tone and cardiovascular fitness and it’s definitely helping with his self-confidence, level of energy, endurance and general well-being!
Kenny wanted to use it on the deck this week yet it’s been too cold so he is waiting for a warmer day. We’re also planning on making a new video of day he received it and different clips of him using it.
Is Theracyle on Facebook?
Please send my best to Rich.

Hi Paula,
Testimonials like that are what makes my job here at Theracycle so rewarding every day! Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I just passed it on to Rich.
I can’t wait to see pictures of Kenny on the deck riding while the hummingbirds and bluebirds visit!
We are not on facebook…yet! Stay tuned. I’ll let you know when we are.
I hope you had a wonderful vacation! Keep in touch.
