The home version of Life Fitness' popular health club model, the Life Fitness Club Series Elliptical Cross-Trainer delivers a remarkably pure, natural elliptical motion. It provides a total body workout with synchronized upper- and lower-body movement that will help you burn more calories with less perceived exertion--even more than other lower-body only elliptical machines.
The Club Series elliptical features 18 workout programs, seven personalized workouts, a race mode, and goal workouts. Save the name, age, weight, and workout preferences for two users in your household, or create up to two custom workouts for each user. Other features include ErgoGrip™ stationary handlebar that provides stability during lower body-only workouts, an oversized, dual accessory tray, deluxe 16-character LED message center that provides workout feedback, and built-in reading rack.
Boredom is never an option with Life Fitness elliptical trainers, with a wide variety of challenging workout programs built into the easy-to-use console. Save time by storing up to seven pre-programmed My Workouts™, and replay them at any time. Rename them for different days of the week or different users in your household. Your weight and resistance levels are automatically saved, and you can also store personal results for each workout to keep track of your progress. Based on your workout's specific time, resistance and heart rate level, a customized cool-down program helps to ensure your heart rate properly returns to a normal level at the end of a workout. You can also conveniently change programs without restarting or losing your current workout information. This cross trainer comes with the following programs to choose from:

Get the most out of your training with the five HeartSync™ heart-rate controlled workouts, which automatically adjust the resistance based on your heart rate feedback via the Lifepulse™ digital contact heart rate sensors on the moving arms or via the included Polar® wireless chest strap.

This helps ensure that no matter how big, small, wide or narrow your feet are, you can still expect the same club-quality experience from this elliptical trainers.

About Life Fitness
What started as one man's pursuit to improve his own physical condition, eventually turned into a global fitness revolution. That man was Keene P. Dimick, the mastermind behind the legendary Lifecycle® exercise bike. The story of Life Fitness began when two young entrepreneurs, Ray Wilson and Augie Nieto, saw the promise of Dr. Dimick’s invention. Even though it was slightly ahead of its time, they believed the Lifecycle exercise bike could help generations of athletes, trainers, exercisers, and people everywhere live happier, healthier, and more fulfilling lives.
Wilson and Nieto bought the rights to the Lifecycle bike from Dr. Dimick, perfected it, and sold it out of a motor home to health clubs across America. Despite the overwhelming odds and initial unpopularity of the Lifecycle exercise bike, the two passion-filled pioneers turned a two-man operation and a seemingly impossible vision into a prosperous reality. Along the way, they shaped the future of Life Fitness as well as the fitness industry, bringing cardiovascular training into the mainstream and helping ignite the health club boom.
Today, Life Fitness is the global leader in designing and manufacturing a full line of reliable, high quality fitness equipment for commercial and consumer use. It is the number one brand of fitness equipment in health clubs worldwide.

Best top of the line elliptical for me,
This review is from: Life Fitness Club Series Elliptical Cross-Trainer (Sports)
I'm 6'4" 265lbs. Wanting the very best elliptical I narrowed my search to Precor and the Life Fitness X7 & Club models. Testing the Precor models I found the incline ramp, even at it's lowest settting, put a little too much stress on my knees, not too bad but worried what years of working out like that would do to me in the end. So then it came down to the X7/Advanced or the Club model. I was worried the Club's fixed 18" stride might be to short for me so I was interested in the X7 which adjusts from 18" to 24". I found on the X7 anything over 18" I started to lean forward in a hunched over position, longer the stride the worse it got so the X7 was definitely out. The Club model was a perfect fit for me so I bought it and I'm very happy with it. I did get it at a local store. The X7 had the advantage of a little better console I thought being an lcd as opposed to the Club's led readout. The X7 was also completely silent while the Club had just a little bit of a whine noise while in use but nothing too loud you'd notice once the radio or tv is on.

This review is from: Life Fitness Club Series Elliptical Cross-Trainer (Sports)
We were hesitant to spend this much on a piece of home fitness equipment, but it has turned out to be well worth it. I love using the professional Life Fitness Elliptical machines at the gym and I could not find another elliptical trainer with the same natural motion. A local fitness equipment store that carries Life Fitness equipment would not budge on the MSRP, and we would have had to pay tax and $200 for shipping. Amazon was running a promotion for $300 off of the MSRP with no tax and free shipping so I bought it here.The Life Fitness Club Series Elliptical is fantastic. Solid as a rock. It has a welded frame and is constructed the same as the professional model and the motion is the same. The difference is in the resistance system. The Life Fitness models in the health club create resistance by using some kind of electric generator that powers the electronics. The resistance on this model feels almost the same but is much quieter. The machine is very quiet all around but it would probably be disturing to others if not in a basement. This model requires plugging it in to an electric outlet. The heart rate sensors in the hand grips work great for me but not for my wife- she uses the wireless chest strap for HR. The Life Fitness Elliptical shipped by freight and arrived in about a week. A giant 18-wheeler delivered it to the end of my driveway. Make sure you have some help unloading the equipment- it weighs about 300lbs with the packaging. It was a struggle for my wife and me to carry the main part of the machine to the basement because it is awkward and bulky and weighs over 200lbs. It was fairly easy to assemble but it took me close to an hour. The core of the machine is already put together. You have to attach the upper arms and assemble and attach the center stack with the electronics and attach the plastic covers that make the machine look finished. It came with the Phillip's screw driver and giant Allen wrench that was needed for assembly. The best part of this machine is that I actually use it every day and am excited to use it. It functions the same as the health club version giving a great low-impact workout and I don't have to drive to the gym.

This review is from: Life Fitness Club Series Elliptical Cross-Trainer (Sports)
The Life Fitness Club Series Elliptical Cross-Trainer provides you with an array of different work-out options. Whether you're a beginner who is just starting an exercise regimen or you've been working out regularly for years, this machine has something for everyone. My husband and I have a personal trainer, and he is envious that we have this machine in our home. It is definitely health-club grade, it glides smoothly and quietly, and has all the bells and whistles you'd expect from a high-end unit. All of the features that are advertised for this elliptical are not exaggerated. I highly recommend purchasing it if you're serious about getting fit, and enjoying getting there in the process.
