About Elliptical Trainers
Elliptical trainers represent the next wave of advancement in low-impact cardiovascular exercise machines and continue to grow in popularity. By simulating motions experienced through walking, stepping, cycling, and skiing, elliptical machines allow for a smooth and fluid motion while building strength in the arms and legs. Similar to the exercise position for treadmills, elliptical trainers are used by standing in an upright position while holding the handrails of the machine. With elliptical trainers, however, your feet remain in the foot pedals throughout the exercise regime and circulate in a smooth and seamless motion, resulting in little to no impact on the knees, back, and hips. Elliptical trainers are compatible for all ages and fitness levels and allow you to select the difficulty level through the incline and intensity settings. Additionally, elliptical trainers allow you to determine the complexity of your workout based on your needs, all while listening to music, watching television or reading a magazine while exercising in the comfort and safety of your own home. Although different types of elliptical trainers offer an assortment of features, many of them include an array of challenging programs, forward and reverse directional movement, EKG grip pulse handles, a lightweight portable design with easy fold-up capability, and a monitor displaying calories burned, distance, speed, time, and heart rate. Other types of exercise machines, namely treadmills and bikes, offer excellent cardiovascular exercise and muscular training for the legs in a forward-motion exercise. Elliptical trainers take this to the next level by offering an upper and lower body workout with dual motion, challenging and diverse programs, and a low-impact exercise machine that won’t strain sensitive joints.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better off saving up for a better elliptical..., October 13, 2005

This machine is really cheap, mostly plastic, and very loud. I can only use it when I'm home alone, because the noise it makes is unnerving to anyone who is around. It serves it's purpose, I get my heart pumping, and wearing headphones it's not toooo bad, but you still hear it. The levels of resistance are a joke; I have to keep it on the highest level of resistance to feel any effect. Not worth the money. If there was a way to return it I would have, and saved for a better machine. We have spend more time trying to figure out how to get rid of the noise than we have using it. My boyfriend Nick has a worse time on it, because the machine shifts side to side under his weight (he's only 150lbs...). I would not reccomend this machine. We will continue to try to fix the noise, and if we figure out how I will post it here for anyone who might find it helpful.

Well, I finally got this in Fedex today. My nephew and I took 3hrs to put together this machine. Instructions are not really that great. Somehow I feel, the base of this machine is not sturdy. It wobbles lil bit. Other than that this machine is okay. I have 2 stationary bikes and their bases are pretty sturdy. They don't move even when cycled at higher speeds. Anyway I bought this for my wife and she loves it.
