rated as the 2nd best cardio exercise equipment for weight loss, the elliptical cross trainer is a stationary piece of equipment, which has two long handles and large foot pedals. the exercise is similar to the movement patterns experienced when walking, running and climbing stairs, to provide an awesome total body workout. here are some benefits of using a cross trainer:

1) weight loss
the benefits of using an elliptical machine for weight loss are evident, with many people successfully using this piece of equipment to accelerate their fat loss. research suggests that cross trainers are preferable to some of the alternative machines, such as stair climbers and exercise bikes. in terms of calories burned, workouts on elliptical cross trainers are comparable with the treadmill, but can often feel easier as larger groups of muscles are used to generate the movement.

2. easy on your joints
the benefits of a cross trainer go far beyond weight loss, and include the protection of your joints. when considering the pros and cons of the cross trainer vs the treadmill, this is one of the most important distinctions. a workout on the treadmill is considered a high impact workout. on the other hand, workouts using the cross trainer are impact-free. this makes cross trainers a fantastic alternative for people who experience joint problems or pain, as the amount of pressure applied to the joints, particularly in the knee and hip, are reduced significantly.

3. work the whole body
unlike many other cardio machines, cross trainers work the entire body, providing a full body workout and increasing the number of calories burned. to give the arms an effective workout, simply hold onto the handles, pushing and pulling as you move your feet on the pedals. this works the entire upper body, include the chest and shoulders. as you move the pedals with your feet, your lower body, including your glutes, will get a great workout. in order to target the glutes, you can increase the resistance, or introduce periods of pedalling backwards. the cross trainer is a highly adaptable machine, and workouts can be tailored to target specific muscle groups as and when required.
