Introduction:

Using an cross elliptical trainer is one of the best ways to get fit and stay that way. If you’re serious about beginning an exercise programme, training on an elliptical can deliver a powerful and effective full-body workout. The more muscles you engage during a workout, the more calories you will burn, so an elliptical, if used the correct way, will exercise the muscles of both your upper and lower body. Here’s some information about a great elliptical from Life Fitness: the X8 Advanced.

Cross Elliptical Trainer Key Features:

The first thing we noticed about the X8 is that the pedals are properly spaced at 1.75 inches apart. This is important because the correct pedal spacing means that you’ll experience the most natural feeling movement. Another key feature is the FlexPedal™ shock absorption system that provides a high degree of cushioning, resulting in a superior low impact workout. We also like the LegScultor™ mode because it automatically adjusts and alternates the stride length at 2-minute intervals for each leg. There’s even a built-in “coach” on the display console called the “Total Body Trainer.” This feature reminds you to target different muscle groups, providing plenty of variety in a very effective workout.

Product Description:

One of the best features about this machine is that it is superbly quiet. So if you like to watch television, listen to music or read during your workout, give this machine a serious look. It has all the features you’d expect in a premium quality machine. The X8 has an excellent range of adjustments, so both the expert and beginner can fully customise their workouts. The built in programmes are challenging without being excessively difficult. We also like the electronic stride adjustment.
