Unlike typical elliptical trainers that neglect upper body muscles, this is the first elliptical trainer with a hand-pulley system that tones the torso, triceps, biceps, and shoulders as you glide, eliminating the need for separate upper and lower body workouts. Similar to cross-country skiing, the elliptical machine provides a consistent, challenging resistance that builds muscle in your arms and legs with each stride and pull. Made by Kettler, renowned German manufacturers of exercise equipment for over 60 years, the elliptical trainer provides a low impact, methodical workout that is easier on joints than running or walking. The elliptical machine's specially designed drive system allows smooth, fluid gliding. The 19" stride lengths stretch and tone the gluteus maximus, thighs, hamstrings, and calves, and the resistance of the pedals and hand pulleys adjust separately, allowing you to customize a workout in mid stride. You can monitor your pulse using the earlobe clip, and the large LCD shows distance traveled, speed, time, calories burned, and heart rate as you workout. The sturdy, powder coated metal frame withstands rigorous exercise and the casters and levelers allow ease of transport and stability on carpets or hard floors. Supports up to 330 lbs. LCD requires two AA batteries. 67" H x 21" W x 65" L. (190 lbs.)
