Stationary handrails provide multiple arm and hand positions for comfortable posture and proper technique. |
Features:
- Adjustable CrossRamp targets key muscle groups. The ramp angle is fully adjustable from 15 to 25 degrees and moves up and down at the push of a button, allowing you to individually target and work all major lower body muscle groups. Different ramp positions engage different lower body muscle groups. When moving the ramp from the bottom to the top, you’ll feel various muscles engage and disengage–the lower positions activate all muscle groups, while the higher positions isolate glutes, quads, and calves. A variable stride length, from 18.5 to 20 inches, offers even greater diversity to your workout.
- Multi-grip handrails. Stationary handrails provide multiple arm and hand positions for comfortable posture and proper technique during every workout.
- Designed with your home in mind. With its smooth lines and subtle color palette, the EFX complements your home decor and suits your lifestyle.
- Track your target heart rate. SmartRate offers instant display of your heart rate to help you stay in your target zone for a more efficient cardio and weight-loss workout. The 5.23 features touch heart rate with ergonomically positioned, touch sensitive grips.
- Intuitive console is easy to read and adjust. Access Quickstart and programs at the touch of a button. The backlit LCD display shows your heart rate, calories burned and time/duration of exercise–to help you get the most from your workout.
- Locking Pin: A locking pin secures the foot pedals, preventing movement, when not in use
- 16 consistent levels of electromagnetic resistance to customize your workout
- Two User IDs allow two people to enter and store personal preference information, then quickly retrieve it for future workouts
- Integrated storage shelf for water bottle, portable music player, etc.
