Why an Upper Body Ergometer? An Upper Body Ergometer (UBE) engages virtually every muscle in the upper body, in a similar fashion to an exercise bike for the lower body As a cardiovascular apparatus, it offers similar benefits to a cycle As a warm-up for resistance training, it provides better activation of the upper torso than the traditional alternatives When used in the standing position, the UBE engages all core muscles of the mid section It is also widely used as an aid to the rehabilitation of many injuries and as a general exercise apparatus for those in wheelchairs
Why First Degree Fitness? First Degree Fitness was created to develop Fluid Technology as a resistance system and apply this to a range of products that suit everybody, from general exercisers through rehabilitation to competitive athletes. Why Fluid Technology? Everybody loves the sight, sound and feel of a resistance system using water as its heart. To understand what we mean, just try one of our unique products, close your eyes and be captivated by the experience. We blend the essence of indoor and outdoor exercise in a manner that no other apparatus can offer. • The most consistent, linear resistance system available • The ability to vary resistance from 'feather light' to 'Olympic sprint' at the touch of a lever • The essence of simplicity – no maintenance and only one moving part
How Fluid Technology works? • Two chambers are contained within the tank. The inside chamber stores a variable amount of water • Resistance is generated by moving the impeller blades through the water in the outside tank • Resistance is varied by allowing more or less water into the outside tank • This is achieved simply by moving the adjustment lever
Fluid UBE Features: Resistance The First Degree Fluid Ergometer is unique in the fact that it uses water for resistance but still offers the ability for on-the-fly changes to the resistance settings. There are 20 separate levels of resistance on the Fluid UBE, providing a range from as light as a feather all the way to an Olympic sprint, all done with the simple flick of a handle.
Comfort and Versatility The 360 degree rotating crank arm is adjustable in 5 degree increments to suit users of any size The seat adjusts through 3 positions and easily removes for standing use and wheelchair access Hand grips are self-leveling and adjust to multiple positions, from horizontal to vertical

Water The First Degree Fluid UBE uses water as it's form of resistance providing a uniform sensation throughout the range of motion of the exercise The natural, soothing sound is an added benefit of the water and contributes to a relaxing and comforting workout experience
