USING AN ELLIPTICAL TRAINER
Elliptical trainer is a popular fitness device and one of the newest and most effective home trainers.
While exercising, your legs are moving along an elliptic curve (hence the name
– sometimes elliptical
trainers are called cross trainers or X-trainers).
Elliptical trainers are often a substitute for the ever popular treadmills or exercise bikes, but the trainer
is much easier on your joints. Additionally, on elliptical trainer, you exercise also your upper body
thanks to the swing tubes.
While exercising, you shift your weight form one leg to the other. Try to keep an upright and natural
posture. The handlebars will help. Find an ideal hand position and try to move as naturally as possible.
