enjoy the journey to better fitness right in the comfort of your own
home! You'll love working out on your very own gym-quality elliptical
trainer. Just watch those pounds fly off as you get a great cardio
workout without even leaving home!
The
Smooth
Fitness CE 7.4 is a sturdy
elliptical trainer built especially for the man of the house. If you
are under 5 and half feet tall you might want to look at another
piece of equipment. The Smooth Fitness CE 7.4 is so heavy duty you'll
need to invite a buddy over to help set it up. This
elliptical trainer is built to last!
You'll
love having your very own
elliptical cross trainer. Ellipticals can help you enjoy an
excellent cardiovascular and weight-bearing
workout without jeopardizing your joints or back. Ellipticals should
have an effortless glide and an intuitive feel that works in concert
with your body. The CE 7.4 from Smooth Fitness offers all of these
essential characteristics while also providing a great workout with a
fluid motion and ultra-quiet performance.
Built for
a wide range of
users, from the beginner to the avid exerciser, the CE 7.4 offers
ergonomic pivoting foot pedals for maximum productivity by minimizing
discomfort, as well as orthopedic cushioning for a more enjoyable
workout. A long 21-inch stride will accommodate even the tallest users
comfortably while a heavy-duty flywheel eliminates the aggravating
"bump" sometimes felt with other elliptical cross trainers.
The
Smooth
Fitness CE 7.4 Elliptical has an
electromagnetic braking system which allows for smooth transitions and
stops
during strenuous workouts. The wireless heart rate control allows you
to set your preferred heart rate, strap on the chest monitor and the
resistance of your routines will automatically be adjusted as your
heart rate changes. Is that cool or what?
The 8 built in workout programs allow you to vary your exercise routine and burn more calories in less time! You can challenge yourself with an interval training program or cruise through a more fitness level pre-programmed workout!
Here's what one
satisfied
customer had to say about his new Smooth
Fitness CE 7.4 Elliptical Trainer
-
* It's very smooth! I'm not going to pretend I like working out,
but the smoothness of this machine makes it a little more enjoyable.
It's very easy on the joints and you get a full body workout. The g/f
and others have noticed my more-defined arms recently, and it's all
from the elliptical! If you use this thing regularly and push yourself,
you will have a healthy heart and feel great. I really work up a sweat
when I use it, but the impact on my body is low.
* Set up was pretty straight-forward. Don't get me wrong, it's no
cake walk, but Smooth couldn't sell it so cheaply and at such high
quality unless it makes the parts separately and has the customer put
it together. It took me about a day to put the whole thing together,
but I was also futzing around and took breaks. The instructions were
much better than average.
* The best quality for the cheapest price. I know $2,000 doesn't
sound cheap, but if you want a quality home elliptical, you've got to
pay for it. Many of the more expensive brands like Precor charge much
more for the same quality.
* Good interface. The screen measures heart rate, distance, speed,
and time. It measures a bunch of other metrics too, but I don't really
care about them.
* Plenty of different programs. I've only used the "Manual" program
so far, but there are plenty of different options to play around with.
* Comes with a wireless heartrate monitor. It's one of those elastic
things made by Polar that you strap around your chest.
* I think the highest
difficulty level should be harder. I work out
on
level 16 for 35 minutes -- and it's a great workout -- but 16 is the
highest it goes. Level 16 should either offer much harder resistance,
or the levels should go up to 20 or something.
* It's big. Make no mistake: this baby is big and heavy. I'm sure
it needs to be, because you can tell it's very well made and high
quality, but when it first arrived -- and I saw this mammoth box
sitting in my tiny living room -- I thought I made a big mistake. (I
live in a 750 square foot apt.) Once I set it up and started using it,
however, I got used to its footprint and realized what a great machine
it is.
Overall, the pros far outweigh the cons. If you're looking for the
best home elliptical machine and have the money, the patience to do a
long-ish set up, and the space, this is the one for you!
