Elliptical equipment is most frequently referred to as an elliptical trainer and commonly is identified by it's skiing-type motion of the foot pads. Often times the elliptical equipment will also have handles attached to the machine so that your body maintains a more fluid motion and you can train your upper body along at the same time that you are training your lower body. This allows you to burn more calories throughout your entire body, increase strength from head to toe and trim the fat in your arms and core region as well. Of course, if you don't want to utilize the handles you can always just release them and rest your hands on stationary handles that are typically installed on most machines. But remember too that the handles are attached to your foot pads so you can actually pull with your hands while you push with your legs, effectively increasing the resistance of the elliptical motion!

In addition to the flexibility of exercising your upper and lower body, many manufacturers of elliptical equipment install resistance adjustments on the machines. These resistance adjustments can be through braking systems within the machine or they can also adjust the incline feature of the foot sleds. Effectively simulating an uphill program. The advantage of such a feature is that the various angles offered by the elliptical equipment will target different muscle groups in your body. So, ultimately, you have foot sleds that not only strengthen your lower body, but they can also target your quadriceps, hamstrings, gluteals and calves simply by adjusting the angle of the foot sleds and adjusting the resistance. On top of all this flexibility, you also have handles to strengthen your upper body including, arms, pectorals, shoulders, back and even abdominals depending on the level of resistance you select and you control!

Clearly elliptical equipment offers you the flexibility of many different modes of exercise training in one machine. With this many features, you may never need another piece of home fitness equipment again!
