Elliptical Trainers for Low-Impact Cardio
Elliptical trainers are often described as a mix between a stair stepper and a cross-country ski machine, but these machines actually simulate several types of aerobic activity. They provide an excellent cardiovascular workout that relies on total body movement as your legs power the pedals and your arms move the handles back and forth. They’re also low impact, which means there is less stress on the joints, making them ideal for people suffering from pain in the knees or hips.
