The elliptical trainer, also known as a cross trainer or orbitrek, guarantees effective training of almost all muscle groups in our body. Thanks to it, we will strengthen and shape not only the muscles of the thighs, buttocks and calves, but also the muscles of the chest, arms and back. Training on an elliptical trainer also means less strain on the joints thanks to the smooth, elliptical course of movement.
With the elliptical, you can perform a very simple and at the same time very diverse workout. The equipment is great for users with different levels of training. Advanced users will definitely not get bored on it, and those who are just starting their adventure with sports will certainly not be discouraged from being active by training on this type of device.
The cross trainer is the perfect solution for people looking for a way to have a comprehensive aerobic workout in the comfort of their own home. What to look for when buying a device? An important parameter of an elliptical trainer is the weight of the flywheel, the heavier it is, the smoother the ride we can expect. There are two resistance systems in ellipticals: magnetic and electromagnetic. In the first case, the braking force depends on the distance of the magnet from the flywheel. The electromagnetic resistance is electrically / power controlled.
Many devices are also equipped with built-in training programs or allow connection to dedicated exercise applications - this affects the quality of our exercises and their variety. Using training programs, we select the desired level of difficulty and start training, and the computer takes care of modifying its parameters, allowing us to devote all our attention to training.
When choosing a device for yourself, also pay attention to the location and weight of the flywheel. On the market, you will find ellipticals with a flywheel located at the front, with a rear and central drive.
