Review: Horizon Fitness EX-67 Elliptical Trainer

Horizon Fitness EX-67 Elliptical TrainerLacking time for your everyday exercise? Having even less spare time to spend in gyms? Well, Horizon Fitness, a worldwide acclaimed gym machineries and physical activity equipments provider, had already answered your worries. The Horizon Fitness EX-67 Elliptical Trainer provides all your needed workouts in just the fraction of your time, without leaving your comfy home.

The Horizon Fitness Ex-67 Elliptical Trainer features a very quiet flywheel, although clicking sounds may exist at the first minutes of your usage. The instructions said that if this clicking sound won't stop, a spread of bike grease would do the trick. This Elliptical also offers a smooth ride and a fluid movement every time you stride in it. With that, muscle coordination and flexibility are trained more effectively than if the movement were discontinuous. It also succeeded in strengthening legs and thighs, especially for those who have undergone some medical procedures in this area of their body. The experience is like jogging minus the shock your feet would feel in every step you would make.

The said trainer is also a good provider of cardiovascular fitness. Moreover, the workout program included in this package can effectively transform EX-67 into your own personal gymnasium. Its thirteen goal-oriented series of physical activities help you tone your muscles in a healthier way without the pain you might have experienced during leg curls or brisk walking.

Also, in your exercise, this product could offer some resistance to further increase the activity in your thighs and lower portion of the body. It uses magnetism in its flywheel to create varying levels of resistance. In this part, you can control the flywheel for your own desired resistance level.

Assembling this product is also no sweat at all. Carefully reading the provided manual would surely make you finish the job by at most two minutes. Although some noted that the handle bars weren't as easy as they were supposed to be, this claim may just be due to some delivery accidents.

Although this product promotes fitness and well-being, its technological advancements are way too slow. The heart rate detectors are sometimes sluggish, and it has no way of calculating the calories you had burnt, the weight you are in after the exercise (unless you'll use your own bathroom weighing scale), and the distance you had traveled in case you are jogging. Spreadsheets are available with the manual, but still, seeing the whole information in the LCD screen is a plus feature, especially for those who were easily confused by spreadsheets and numbers.

Still, you may find this product attractive if you are in a strict financial status. Juxtaposed with other elliptical providers, the Horizon Fitness EX-67 Elliptical Trainer is more affordable and practical, particularly for those who just want to sweat without the fancy geeky stuffs. If exercise is what you want, EX-67 can do that for you; just disregard some high-tech features other elliptical has to offer. Remember that your goal is to be healthy.

Having this equipment at your home would really give you no more reasons for not exercising. So balance your own opinions and make sure to create a decision you won't regret for the years to come.
