COMFORT

Derived from extensive biomechanics research and user panel testing, SIXstar Certification™ is a unique combination of the six key elements needed to deliver the smoothest, most natural elliptical feel available:

  • ZEROgap™ provides ideal pedal placement with zero distance between them to eliminate stress on hips and back.
  • The StraightUP™ body posture keeps your body upright for maximum comfort, minimal fatigue and faster results.
  • 10" SUREstep™ provides easy access with a low step-on height to make it safer and easier to get on and off this elliptical.
  • IDEALfit™ optimal handlebar spacing puts grips within ideal reach and distance for both small and large-framed users.
  • The 20" FLATellipse™ foot path provides a more natural foot path, mimicking walking and running motions while minimizing fatigue.
  • The SMOOTHpulley™ large drive pulley ratio increases the angular momentum of the elliptical. This means you get the smoothest, most efficient motion possible.
