To
burn the most calories, use an elliptical cross trainer, which is the fastest
growing category of fitness equipment today. Well-designed models like those from
Octane Fitness deliver low-impact, effective
and efficient total-body workouts that are incomparable to monotonous lower-body
only routines such as shuffling on treadmills and pedaling endlessly on stationary
bikes.
"With
ellipticals' fluid motion, low perceived exertion and variety of
resistance
levels, workouts are transformed from a chore to actually being
enjoyable and
productive," said Tim Porth, the executive vice president of
product development
and marketing for Octane Fitness
( http://www.octanefitness.com ).
Optimizing
results in minimum time is easy with routines from Octane
Fitness, such as
interval training workouts using HeartLogic Intelligence,
which alternate intensity
levels according to the exerciser's heart rate.
Variable stride programs combine
stride length, direction and resistance for
cross training variety, and ArmBlaster
maximizes upper-body conditioning.
Octane's signature X-Mode capitalizes on
the advantages of cross training
by prompting exercisers to push arms, squat,
go backwards and more; the
GluteKicker routine commands intense lower-body
movements that target trouble spots in the glutes, hips and thighs.
Based
on extensive research, Octane's ellipticals are built using
Body-Mapping Ergonomics
and the patented QuadLink drive for the most natural, biomechanically correct
motion.
Plus,
workouts can be customized with the proprietary SmartStride, which
replicates
natural movements like walking, jogging, running and going
backwards by automatically
adjusting the elliptical stride to an exerciser's
pace. And the proprietary
MultiGrip handlebars offer various biomechanically
correct positions that optimize
comfort for every individual.
Give
a gift to yourself this holiday season with elliptical exercise.
With a space-efficient
footprint and supreme durability, Octane Fitness'
award-winning models are
available at specialty fitness retailers nationwide
