Buy elliptical trainer for home

Elliptical trainers have become one of the most popular endurance machines in fitness studios. At the same time, however, their importance is also increasing in home use, because the effective, joint-gentle training feeling of the elliptical trainer can finally also be experienced at home. In contrast to the classic crosstrainer, the movement of an elliptical trainer is flat and long, which is very similar to jogging/running. With the crosstrainer, the focus is on an up-and-down movement, similar to classic stepping or stair climbing. The modern elliptical trainers from HAMMER offer a sophisticated training technology that works many and very large muscle groups simultaneously, which maximises your calorie consumption and thus the training success. But how exactly does an elliptical trainer work? And what distinguishes it from a cross trainer? We have summarised the most important information about elliptical trainers for you so that you can find the right model for your home and use cardio training even more intensively. So you know what to look out for when you want to buy an elliptical trainer for your home.

What are the differences between an elliptical trainer and a cross trainer?

The terms "elliptical trainer" and "cross trainer" are still frequently used as synonyms - however, the two fitness machines are fundamentally different from each other and also have several distinguishing features with regard to their mode of operation:

Position of the flywheel
The most obvious difference between the two cardio machines is the position of the flywheel. On the elliptical trainer, the flywheel is at the front, i.e. the elliptical trainer is a so-called "front-driven cardio machine". In contrast, the flywheel of a crosstrainer is located at the rear.

Movement sequence
Elliptical trainers work with a flatter, space-consuming running motion - this is very similar to cross-country skiing with the large and low swing circles. The endurance training is therefore particularly easy on the joints and protects the spine from strong impact forces. On the other hand, the movement sequence on a cross trainer is characterised by a stronger up and down movement. However, the crosstrainer's elliptical motion is very gentle on the joints. Thus, the crosstrainer workout is closer to jogging and stepping and is usually perceived as somewhat more strenuous.

Intermediate joint
Furthermore, in contrast to crosstrainers, elliptical trainers are equipped with an additional joint in the pedals. This additional joint is intended to reduce the forces that occur and contribute to a smooth motion sequence.

Endurance training: How effective is training on the elliptical trainer?

The elliptical trainer belongs to the category of cardio equipment and is therefore mainly used for endurance training, fat burning and body shaping. By moving the arms in opposite directions, the large muscle groups of the torso (abdomen, chest, back), but also the shoulder girdle and the arm muscles are integrated into the training. In contrast to the bicycle ergometer or the treadmill, this leads to a higher calorie consumption, as a larger muscle mass has to be supplied with energy and oxygen. This results in a more intensive effect on fat and weight reduction, as long as you do not overexert yourself during the workout and keep your metabolism in the aerobic range (see also Ausdauertraining ). The elliptical trainer is therefore ideal for shedding excess pounds and bringing your body into slim, shapely proportions.

As a result of the strong muscular strain, you strengthen your entire body. Your tissues will be tightened and especially your legs, thighs and buttocks will be ideally shaped.

But it's not just your appearance that will improve - your health and well-being can also be enhanced by the gentle workout on a HAMMER elliptical trainer. Your entire cardiovascular system becomes more efficient and works more economically. In addition, you will lower any bad blood values and ensure a brighter mood in everyday life through the release of numerous happiness hormones.

Elliptical trainer training - how do I train correctly?

Thanks to the modern computers, our HAMMER elliptical trainers offer you varied training programmes with which you can achieve your individual training goals. Use interval training for fast fat burning or heart rate programmes to strengthen your cardiovascular system. The pulse is measured via the hand sensors on the handles or via an optional chest strap.

What types of elliptical trainers are there and what are their advantages and disadvantages?

At HAMMER you will find different types of elliptical trainers. Depending on your fitness goal, we recommend different elliptical trainers. These three elliptical trainers represent a selection and recommendation from the entire HAMMER range. We will also be happy to advise you personally in one of our stores or on the HAMMER expert telephone.

Comfortable workout due to HAMMER premium quality

From the pedals to the training computer: HAMMER uses the highest quality materials and the latest technologies in its elliptical trainer models. The different brake systems (magnetic and induction brake system) offer a very precise intensity adjustment. With this braking system, you can train at low as well as high power and slowly increase your fitness through the finely graduated load dosage. This enables beginners as well as advanced exercisers to organise their endurance training with the elliptical trainer in an effective and targeted way.

The innovative technology of the HAMMER elliptical trainer makes the difference: precision ball bearings and many construction details guarantee a smooth training experience with high movement quality. The selected stride length enables a movement that is smooth and gentle on your joints. The specially shaped treads put your feet and thus your whole body in an ergonomically correct training position.

What to look for when testing and buying an elliptical trainer

Your decision has been made: you want to train your endurance and fitness effectively with an elliptical trainer and lose a few pounds at the same time. So that you can soon train on a training device that is perfectly suited to you, you should pay attention to the following when buying an elliptical trainer:

  • Motion run
  • Braking system
  • Flywheel mass
  • Training computer
  • Pulse measurement

The motion run of an elliptical trainer

You already know the difference between an elliptical trainer and a cross trainer. On an elliptical trainer you train your endurance with a flatter running motion in a more elongated elliptical shape. The flywheel is usually at the front and the whole movement is very similar to natural running. However, there are also elliptical trainers that have the flywheel positioned at the back. Tip: If you notice when testing the device that a natural rolling motion is possible in your ankle, you are training with an elliptical trainer.

Braking system: Magnetic or induction braking system

On an elliptical trainer equipped with an electronic magnetic braking system, the distance between the flywheel and the magnet in the flywheel is adjusted electronically. The induction brake system or eddy current brake is a braking system that, as the name suggests, uses eddy currents caused by magnetic fields to brake.

Flywheel mass

The flywheel mass is located in the flywheel, which is usually at the front of the elliptical trainer. It is essential to ensure a smooth motion, both on the elliptical trainer and the crosstrainer. Without the flywheel, you would feel the reversal points of the movement when exercising on the elliptical trainer or crosstrainer and a smooth running movement would not be possible.

Trainingscomputer

With a training computer you can fully concentrate on your training and have the most important measuring points exactly in view. You always have an overview of your current speed, the time, the distance covered, the number of calories burned, your pulse and the active training programme. With different training programmes you can diversify your training and stay motivated. Some elliptical trainers also have shortcut buttons so you can easily set your favourite training programme. In addition, with certain training computers you have the option of setting a certain upper or lower pulse limit for the pulse programme and your elliptical trainer takes care of the resistance control and that your desired values are maintained.

Pulse measurement

Most elliptical trainers allow you to control your heart rate with (separate) hand grips. Pulse-oriented endurance training helps you to better achieve your training goals. Pulse measurement can often also be carried out via a chest strap that transmits the data wirelessly to the training computer. You should always keep an eye on your pulse when training with the elliptical trainer so that you train correctly and effectively and come closer to your fitness goals.
