Run Free with ElliptiGO
Runners, athletes and fitness enthusiasts alike will absolutely love the launch of the latest US fitness trend, ElliptiGO, the world’s first Elliptical bicycle – and it looks fantastic! Designed by elite athletes for every kind of fitness and running enthusiast, this brand new outdoor cross training device simulates the action of running without the impact on the joints you’d expect from a running workout.
Training with ElliptiGO will use the same muscles as running, but it is made much easier, as the motion does not create pressure or abrasion on the joints. It offers a great cardiovascular workout that not only burns calories but also tones and strengthens legs and core muscles (I really want one of these!). Due to its low impact nature, it is also an ideal rehabilitation training device for those who want to escape the confines of the gym and train outdoors despite joint injuries they may already have.
Riders can cruise along at speeds in excess of 25 miles an hour, as well as climb and descend the steepest of hills utilising the range of gears provided. It is sure to get people looking on in awe at your new piece of exercise equipment.
ElliptiGO’s founders, both former competitive Ironman triathletes Bryan Pate and Brent Teal state:-
“By eliminating the impact from pounding the tarmac whilst running, the ElliptiGO provides the most effective and comfortable outdoor workout experience available today”
Ultra Marathon runner Dean Karnazes is among one of many athletes who have integrated the ElliptiGO into their training regimes, as well as into his extreme endurance challenges. He say’s:-
“I love the ElliptiGO. I’ve always been a proponent for including cross-training in any running regimen, and the ElliptiGO is the best cross training device I’ve ever seen - bar none. When I’m training, I like to follow up a hard run with a really hard ElliptiGO ride the next day. That way I can let my joints recover while I continue to build my cardiovascular strength.”
It’s a far cry from your conventional bike, and hopefully will be the next big craze! You can use it on the road, park or countryside - basically anywhere a bike can be ridden, the ElliptiGO can roam. It will be the best cross-training device that you can use. This is definetly one to try out!
The ElliptiGO 8S retails for £1,599. For more information please visit http://www.elliptigo.co.uk
