Hello @sillynilly59 and welcome to the Community.  Nustep makes several different pieces of exercise equipment.  If you are using one of the recumbent cross trainers, then I recommend elliptical.

Hi there, @sillynilly59. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. 

I agree with @LZeeW. Nevertheless, please note when a specific exercise is not available within the exercises we offer, we suggest to use "Workout" (which is a generic catch-all for other types of exercise). Once you finish the activity, you can rename the activity to desired exercise/activity. Please note that the amount of calories burned vary from the exercise you're performing and due to the heart rate tracked by your Charge 5.

Note that the information to enter will change depending on the nature of the exercise. To give you an example, if you change from "Workout" to "Run", it won't remove the calories but will add distance as the main stat to be displayed, this happen depending of the activity you are categorizing. However, your the data already tracked will be still counted for your daily totals.

For more information about how to do so, see How do I add, edit, or delete Fitbit data and activities?
