Elliptical machine use and sports skills

The ellipsometer, as its name suggests, is that when you walk or run your feet, the route that passes through each step is basically an ellipse. The ellipsometer has two pedals. Their movement track is also elliptical. When you move above it, the feeling is walking or running, but the foot does not leave the pedal, so that you enjoy the pleasure of walking or running. The chance of joint damage is reduced. The ellipsometer is also a good instrument for cross-training.

There are two types of ellipsometry instruments. One can only perform regressive movements, and the other requires you to use both hands and feet. Both of them are popular with many people. The latter is more challenging because of the higher balance requirements. The latter also works well for the upper body and helps increase the endurance of your arm.

The ellipsometer, like all other fitness devices, requires you to maintain a good posture while you are exercising. Take care to breathe and replenish enough water. Other cautions are:

1. Don't move backwards. Many people think that when you move backwards on an ellipsometer, you can use your buttocks more. Actually, both directions are mainly for your thighs, and When you move backwards, the knee joint pressure increases, which has had a bad influence on the ligaments and tendons of the knee joint in the past.

2, try not to let the foot leave the pedal, there are many parts of the ellipsoid movement, if the foot off the pedal may cause unnecessary damage, but also does not help you maintain balance.

3, some ellipsometer can not only adjust the resistance, but also can adjust the slope, test a number of different angles, help increase the fun.

The elliptical machine is a fitness exercise that has the least impact on the knee, not that the greater the resistance, the better. The resistance should be adjusted according to individual needs and the intensity of adaptation.
