How to choose elliptical trainer. Just 2 things to know.

There only two major things to look at before buying elliptical trainer. Everything else, like the amount of difficulty levels or mountain climbing imitating programs are just secondary things.

Why haven't I bought a treadmill? On a treadmill you put a lot more force to the knees when you land down. On elliptical you don't fall down instead you slide down gradually without any jumping force to the knees. And also, small tip - before I go, I drink a cup of flavory water and eat some chocolate. Gives me an energy boost :)

[@RowntreeRobin]

I can see the name of your elliptical is Vision Fitness. Can you tell me which model it is please?

[@fridabear1874]

I've watched heaps of vids recently on ellipticals, this is by FAR the best video with the best information! Thank you

[@tommccormick5140]

My 2 important things on an elliptical: 1) The heavier the flywheel the smoother and more stable you are. And 2) Look for an elliptical that can handle a lot of weight. 300 lbs plus is strong.

The only video which actually teaches what to look for

[@tanmoydas825]

For the first time, someone talking about some worthy points, not those bullshits. Thanks mate. U save my day. Hats off and salute.

[@randalweaver2321]

Thank you Tomas. Your video helps me make my decision. Thank you!

[@SD-vm9po]

Which one are you using please

[@claudiafernety7563]

This is so helpful. Thank you!

[@cliffwhite2812]

Excellent advice - the programs are mostly marketing bs and after owning my elliptical I only use one, very similar to your manual mode description.

[@ThomasJDavis]

I think another point to make, in terms of stability is that, one of the main spots to look for is how the neck or mast is attached to the rest of the machine. Because if you're using your upper body in conjunction with your lower body, that's going to put strain on the mast of the machine. It's going to put a twisting pressure on it. So if the mast is cheaply attached, it will start loosening and squeaking. Wherever the mast is attached is the weakest point and needs to withstand that twisting pressure over a long period of time in order to be worth purchasing. edit: So basically, the more parts you have to assemble, the greater risk there is for the machine to loosen up at those points of contact.

[@melissanative1799]

YEAH I'M SICK OF THE STUPID PROGRAMS AND FEATURES THAT THEY EMPHASIZE MORE THAN MANY OTHER IMPORTANT FEATURES.

[@LifeOfCherryJane]

Hello - Do you know the stride length of your machine?

[@psmith3001]

His drawing makes it quite clear what to look for when looking to purchase a quality machine - thanks!

[@evangelische336]

Researching for ellipticals.. glad I found your video before my Amazon purchase.

[@joaquintall5180]

Good job, Tomas! My wife and I are looking at an elliptical, also used but in very good condition. We are looking at LifeFitness 9500 HR and Precor EFX 885. What do you think?

[@alp6181]

5:04 hahaha much love from Netherlands!

[@adamz5987]

Hi dude any chance to share with me the brand / model? Much appreciated!

[@katherinetchernova8600]

[@carmenparker4701]

Thank you, great advice. I will look out for these issues on one I’m planning on buying.

[@shaunbacker6281]

Great info... just what i needed... Thank you!!

[@rumplewang2814]

Thank you so much for teaching me this knowledge. I was almost being a fool for falling for that marketing bullshit.

[@nasirjamal5075]

Thanks buddy you nailed the information , truely yours..All the best.

[@hfaith81]

What do you think about the Matrix A50 elliptical?

[@calikokat100]

Basically he is saying is find an elliptical with a long stride length

[@Scorpionwins23]

Love this video! My wife and I are looking for a good trainer and she's looking at screen sizes, smartphone capability, speakers, all the bells and whistles! Meanwhile I'm like no, I'll put a TV and a stereo in the garage where we'll use it, don't worry about that stuff. I just don't want to feel like I'm holding the damn thing together whilst I'm using it. This video offers great practical advice on what to look for. I have definitely used elliptical trainers at the gym that felt like Stairmasters, and you want it to be sturdy. I'll send her this video and see if I can change her thinking, wish me luck!

[@vanelab]

Thanks for the video. The information you provide is perfect to discern what is really important

[@kernelkrew4237]

Thanks a lot Tom!

[@Lets_Be_Real_UK]

Dude, this is awesome! I love your no nonsense talk.

[@AliAdnan-lf1lv]

You so realistic and informative… thank you cuz u made me settle on the right decision (top notch -used) better than cheap chin..s modern

[@laracroft4851]

And now I know why I hated working out on my elliptical trainer coz mine was unstable kept moving with me I swear it used to make me feel dizzy and yes u reminded me of how my legs kept touching ground with each move .. and sadly that trainer was my first elliptical trainer ever .. now am thinking about buying a proper one and give it a try one more time

[@SamA-xu9gy]

What is the situation now?

[@wingusdingus9447]

I just bought a vision fitness x6200 hrt at a goodwill for $24.99.

[@tomasrandom6430]

that is a good price :D hope it works.

[@supermanohm533]

In some elliptical cross trainers, the distance between the two legs is much wider and does not feel natural like walking or running at all, in this video above, the distance between the two legs is negligible, so one can walk for hours as it replicates natural walk or run.

[@tomasrandom6430]

good point

[@Zerorjcrystal]

Thank you for such a clear explanation!!

[@Tiffers963Hz]

Cheers dude.

[@RomanA.Huarachi]

Thank you for this, I used to use one of these at a gym back in my home town and I loved it, now that I'm in a different country I'm considering buying one for personal use since gyms usually have machines with fixing needs, unfortunately.

[@InLawsAttic]

Is it strictly heart , or do you get muscle resistance on arms and legs?

[@tomasrandom6430]

if I am not lazy :D Mostly squats, push ups and pull ups.

[@Jimi_7-7-7]

you are the guy 💪😝🤝🤝🤝 Thank you 😊

[@TorBoy9]

Thank you for your second point, about the height differences of your feet when using the elliptical. I wondered why some ellipticals fell so very odd. There is so much marketing crap out there for every product. I also don't need the fancier computer and programming. If bored then I can use my own devices.

[@Jchamaon]

Hey! :) Can you please tell me what model your crosstrainer is?

[@kiwigirlNZ]

Vision Fitness $1,699.00

[@tonnaboy10]

Lol, “I don’t need these expensive shit” 😂

[@bummersummers2592]

You're awesome man! saved me from buying the elliptical that I was gonna regret!

[@soluadesign]

thanks. good advise.

[@jimmccoys5778]

I appreciate this very much!! I also do not need the extra program junk! I only ever use manual!! Thanks so much

[@lunarcontact]

Appreciate this video. Thank you

[@BatumiStudio]

Thanks for the video. Does it consumes lot of electricity, can you use without electrical power?

[@Gambling4Life]

What is the elliptical he is using ?

[@joaquintall5180]

VISION FITNESS is the manufacturer. Now, go to Google images and see if you can find one that looks like Tomas's elliptical. HTH. O.K., I save you some time. Model # is X6200 HRT

I'm glad you said 12 minutes. I used mine for the first time today. I found it on the side of the road for free. I bought a new power cord for $12 and after 12 minutes I had to stop so now I don't feel so bad. Awesome video and thank you. Liked and subscribed ❤

thanks for making it short, clear and honest

[@sofianikolaeva2838]

thank you very much for the honest review! I was about to buy one of those cheaper options but thanks to you I changed my mind. The only thing which is not very clear to me is how do I choose an elliptical with the front wheel? They all seem to have the same structure from the first sight 🥲
