Freemotion
FreeMotion Fitness introduces the most natural moving elliptical. Built to last, the FreeMotion Elliptical Trainer features the patented rear-access design to minimize its footprint and to maximize floor space without compromising functionality or durability. The machine’s custom-designed electromagnetic resistance system consistently applies resistance to the flywheel to ensure a smooth ride. Available with optional Workout TV™ console or self-powered Basic consoles, the FreeMotion Elliptical Trainer features QuickTouch™ adjustments with 20 resistance levels and eight preprogrammed workouts. The wheel track is covered to limit access to moving parts and guard against debris. For more information, visit www.freemotionfitness.com or call 877-363-8449.
Life Fitness
A mix of metallic silver and gray tones gives the Life Fitness 95Xi elliptical cross-trainer a contemporary look. Ergonomically-correct moving arm handles provide a total-body workout, and 30 workouts give users lots of exercise variety. The pedal design allows exercisers to adjust foot position comfortably, and 2.8 inch pedal spacing minimizes lateral shifting of the hips, which reduces lower back stress. The 95Xi comes with Lifepulse hand sensors and Polar telemetry, along with five interactive heart rate programs. The unit also is available with the Life Fitness Attachable LCD with E-Z TV Console, the only attachable LCD solution with TV controls built into the product console. The in-console TV controller includes a numeric keypad for specific channel selection, channel up and down arrows, a previous channel button and volume control buttons. No external remote control to attach creates a clean, streamlined look. For more information, visit www.lifefitness.com or call 800-634-8637.
