What is a Cross Trainer?
Get effective, full-body cardio with the cross-trainer, a low-impact solution that offers outstanding results. Its design ensures your feet remain on the platform, protecting your joints from potential shocks. At the same time, arm movements amplify calorie burn. These machines are versatile and suitable for both compact home gym setups and spacious commercial gyms.
To make your purchase even more rewarding, we're excited to introduce flexible financing options, such as Train Now and Pay Later. Enjoy the benefits of your new cross trainer today and pay at your convenience. Your satisfaction and trust are paramount to us.
If you find the same model of cross trainer advertised at a lower price elsewhere, we're committed to matching that price. We go the extra mile to make sure that you receive the best value for your investment without compromising on quality or service.
Many of our elliptical and cross trainers offer visual displays of speed, distance, fat, calorie burn time and others. Most of them feature a range of adjustments to accommodate different users. The features vary by machine, so you can pick the trainer that fits your needs or wants.
All have digital displays and are easy to read, so you can easily see what you need to know when you want to. There is also adjustable tensioning, which is great depending on how hard of a workout you want.
What are The Benefits of Cross Trainers?
A cross trainer replicates walking and running motions minus the joint strain. Standing on a platform and holding handles, users glide their legs, with the machine mirroring this movement. Here's a concise look at the key benefits they offer, ensuring you make an informed decision about integrating them into your fitness routine:
Low-Impact Workout: Cross trainers provide a smooth, elliptical motion, reducing the risk of impact injuries. This makes them an excellent choice for individuals with joint issues or those recuperating from specific injuries.
Full-Body Activation: Unlike some cardio equipment that focuses solely on the lower body, cross trainers engage both your upper and lower body. The synchronized push-pull action from the handlebars works your arms, shoulders, chest, and back, while the pedaling targets your legs and glutes.
Effective Calorie Burn: Engaging multiple muscle groups means you can achieve a higher calorie burn in less time, aiding in weight management and overall fitness.
Versatility in Training: With adjustable resistance levels and often pre-programmed workout routines, cross-trainers cater to all fitness levels. Whether you're kick-starting your fitness journey or challenging your limits, there’s a setting for you.
Improved Cardiovascular Health: Regular sessions can enhance heart and lung capacity, strengthening the cardiovascular system and increasing stamina.
Features to Look for in a Cross Trainer
When choosing a cross trainer, it's vital to pick one that aligns with your fitness goals, offers durability, and provides a comfortable workout experience.
Resistance Levels
A variety of resistance levels cater to all users, from beginners taking their first steps in fitness to advanced athletes looking for an intense workout.
Look for a machine that allows easy transition between resistance levels, offering both manual and automated adjustments.
Stride Length
The stride length determines how far your legs can move on the cross trainer.
An adjustable stride length ensures a comfortable workout tailored to your height and natural walking or running stride. Ideally, a range between 18 to 22 inches caters to most users.
Built-in Workouts
Pre-programmed workouts can help users achieve specific fitness objectives, from fat-burning to interval training.
These routines offer variety, keep your workouts fresh, and can automatically adjust the resistance for you.
Digital Display
A clear and comprehensive digital display will enable users to monitor their progress in real-time.
Key metrics to track include time spent, distance covered, and calories burned. Some advanced models may also provide heart rate readings and other health metrics.
Noise
The quieter the operation, the better, especially if you're planning to use the machine in a shared space or while watching TV.
Magnetic resistance cross trainers tend to be quieter than air or friction-based ones. Checking reviews or testing the machine can give you a sense of its noise level.
