What Makes The Elliptical Trainer Unique?
Elliptical trainers offer 3 main benefits for the home exerciser:
#1 An elliptical trainer workout gives less impact on the joints than traditional running exercise (say, on a treadmill).
It's a safe, low impact workout for anyone, regardless of fitness level.
#2 Unlike cycling, stair-stepping or even walking, an elliptical trainer uses both arms and legs, providing a total body workout in less time.
Plus, with a lower rate of perceived exertion the elliptical trainer makes workouts seem easier.
This can actually add up to more calories burned and more weight lost.
#3 Elliptical Trainers are simple to use yet still provide weight resistant workouts that help build bone density, fight osteoporosis, and increase metabolism.
