4.3STRIDE DESCRIPTIONS

Position 1 – 18" (46cm) (Walk)

Position 1 - the shortest stride offering. This stride can be used for a variety of workouts. You can use this setting as a “power walking” workout by using your legs more than your upper-body and increasing the resistance. Or, you can use it to concentrate on your upper- body by increasing the resistance and focus on pushing and pulling with your arms.

Position 2 – 20" (51cm) (Jog)

Position 2 - the more traditional stride length found on many ellipticals, simulates a jogging motion useful for a wide variety of user heights and workouts.

Position 3 – 22" (56cm) (Run)

Position 3 - extends just past traditional and begins to encroach upon the running motion by lengthening out the stride and focuses more on lower body muscle stimulation.

Position 4 – 24" (61cm) (Sprint)

Position 4 – the longest stride setting simulates a sprinting motion by placing the user in an sprinting stance, leaning forward slightly and lengthening out the stride.
