Footpads
Through research performed with a leading sports scientist and physical rehabilitation expert, the
engineering has developed a breakthrough in pedal design. The history of elliptical use over the
past few years tells us that many users suffer from ankle, Achilles tendon, knee and/or hip pain.
While researching a solution to these common problems the engineers consulted Richard DeKok,
P.T., M.T.C., of St. Bernards Industrial Rehabilitation Center in Jonesboro Arkansas. Together we/
identified the inherent problem in elliptical designs and developed a solution to solve the problem.
What we found is that when you use an elliptical you tend to push outward during the power stroke
and not just straight back. This causes stress on the outer part of the foot and throws off the natural
alignment of the body’s joints. The solution we discovered was to add a 2-degree inward angle to
the footpads. This might sound simple but it was all that was needed to put the user’s joints back
into a neutral alignment. This eases the over stressing of the ankles, knees and hips and allows the
user to exercise longer without discomfort.
Transportation
