One look at the Matrix E1x Elliptical Trainer and it’s easy to see why these stunning machines are one of the most popular forms of exercise equipment in gyms around the globe. Walking, jogging and running on asphalt puts an enormous amount of strain on delicate ankle, knee and hip joints. The beauty of an elliptical trainer is the ability to engage in an intense and challenging workout that is easy on the joints.
The quadriceps are notoriously difficult to target but regular use of an elliptical machine will help strengthen these muscles as well as the calves, hamstrings and glutes. Small but extremely important stabilizing muscles are also worked, which assists in injury prevention. Upper body motion is encouraged via the convenient and padded handlebars, which will help tone the biceps, triceps, deltoids and lats as well as increase caloric burn. Going hands-free will utilize your core muscles and help improve co-ordination and balance.
A vibrant 7" blue, backlit, graphic LCD console displays important information on your workout including Time, Distance, Calories, Speed, Level, Watts, METs and Heart Rate. Use the built in hand grips and receivers to monitor your heart rate and ensure you’re working within the correct zone for maximum results. A wide range of programs such as Manual, Hill Interval, Time Goal, Distance Goal and Calories Goal will keep you motivated as you train. The 19" stride length is comfortable and allows for a natural, fluid motion.
Completely self powered the E1x can be positioned anywhere for the ultimate in convenience, plus it means running costs are at a minimum. With over 30-years experience in the world of high-end gym tech Powerhouse Fitness is delighted to offer this exceptional elliptical trainer for a fantastic price.
