Precor elliptical EFX 5.21i

When choosing a Precor elliptical, you have to try the Precor Elliptical 5.21i. This superior machine will provide you with a smooth, quiet elliptical exercise.

You can watch TV while you exercise and not hear a squeak in the machine. There are 20 different resistance levels to choose from and with the EFX ability to change the incline level of the ramp you can add to the resistance and the intensity of your workout.

The display feature of the console provides information on the time, speed, distance, heart rate and level of resistance. There is a calorie counter on this machine, but it is not very accurate, so it would not be a good idea to stick to it for your calorie counting.

There are various elliptical crosstraining courses for you to use to vary your workout depending on which muscle groups you want to target. Some of these courses are cross training, weight loss, glutes, interval, heart rate and manual. With each one of them you can change the resistance and incline level.

The stride length is 18 inches, which is good for most users. Taller people may have a little difficulty with it needing one that is longer. The foot pedals operate like roller blades so there is no impact on your joints and bones.

There is no heart rate monitor included with this elliptical. If you want to have one you have to purchase it extra and the heart rate program will only work when the heart rate monitor is connected.

The arms are fixed in position so that you can't move your arms as you exercise to get a total body workout. They are in a position that lets you exercise in comfort as they are ergonomically placed. Overall, these are excellent machines for helping you get in shape.
