The   A.P.T. stands for:    Active Passive Trainer.

It refers to the three ways to exercise:

• Active –  working your muscles against the different levels of resistance. this is the best way to strengthen muscles, and increase endurance.
• Passive – the electric motor moves you to  increase blood circulation, flex muscles and joints, reduce spasms and swelling.
• the Combination:   let the motor move your legs, while work your muscles actively. Strengthen weak muscles (Stroke, M.S., C.P., etc)
