Total Gym Cyclo Trainer Review
Sole E95 Elliptical Trainer (2009-2010 Model) Review
Workout specifics include 20 resistance levels, 10 total programs (including two custom and two heart-rate programs), and a 20-inch stride length. Perhaps the handiest feature from a user perspective, however, is the easy-to-use electronic console, which integrates a red/green display, a cooling fan, and a water bottle holder. Additional features include stationary handlebars with built-in pulse sensors for monitoring your heart rate; a heart rate chest strap for hands-free pulse monitoring; heavy-duty rails with smooth-riding wheels on the back; and a rear plastic shroud that adds additional stability for aggressive use. The E95, which offers a maximum weight capacity of 400 pounds, carries the following warranties: lifetime on the frame, five years on all parts and electronics, and two years on the labor.

About Elliptical Trainers
Elliptical trainers represent the next wave of advancement in low-impact cardiovascular exercise machines and continue to grow in popularity. By simulating motions experienced through walking, stepping, cycling, and skiing, elliptical machines allow for a smooth and fluid motion while building strength in the arms and legs. Similar to the exercise position for treadmills, elliptical trainers are used by standing in an upright position while holding the handrails of the machine. With elliptical trainers, however, your feet remain in the foot pedals throughout the exercise regimen and circulate in a smooth and seamless motion, resulting in little to no impact on the knees, back, and hips.
Elliptical trainers are compatible for all ages and fitness levels and allow you to select the difficulty level through the incline and intensity settings. Additionally, elliptical trainers allow you to determine the complexity of your workout based on your needs, all while listening to music, watching television, or reading a magazine while exercising in the comfort and safety of your own home.
Although different types of elliptical trainers offer an assortment of features, many of them include an array of challenging programs, forward and reverse directional movement, EKG grip pulse handles, a lightweight portable design with easy fold-up capability, and a monitor displaying calories burned, distance, speed, time, and heart rate. Other types of exercise machines, namely treadmills and bikes, offer excellent cardiovascular exercise and muscular training for the legs in a forward-motion exercise. Elliptical trainers take this to the next level by offering an upper and lower body workout with dual motion, challenging and diverse programs, and a low-impact exercise machine that won't strain sensitive joints.

Timex Ironman Men's Race Trainer Heart Rate Monitor with Data Xchanger Watch, Black/Grey, Full Size Review
The Ironman Race Trainer wears great for everyday time-keeping, and when you're ready to train it is equipped with multiple heart monitor functions that allow you to measure and reach your training goals every time you work out. The heart rate monitor communicates digitally with the watch and has an owner-replaceable battery. The heart rate monitor features a 10-workout memory and five linked interval timers with target zones to allow you to measure your development as you train. Functions such as 'Average Heart Rate' that offer readings for your total workout and for each lap, and 'Time in Zone' with six heart rate target zones allow you to interpret your performance and set goals. The 'Recovery Heart Rate Timer' measures your heart rate after a timed recovery period during or after your workout, giving you further information about your fitness level. Additional functions include 'Percentage-of-Max Heart Rate Display' and 'Calories Burned.' 'Digital Transmission' protects your data from cross talk with other heart rate monitors and electronic interference from exercise equipment.
In addition to heart rate monitor specific functions, the Ironman Race Trainer comes loaded with functions to maximize your training. The watch is equipped with five variable intensity interval timers and a 100-hour chronograph with lap and split in large digits, allowing you to time yourself with ease and accuracy. The watch also features a 50-lap memory for each workout with average heart rate per lap readings. In addition, the watch has a 100-hour, three-mode countdown timer and three alarms with daily, weekly, and weekly with five-minute backup alarms for security. The watch is equipped with an Indiglo night-light with Night-Mode feature so you can read the watch and use its functions anywhere. A polyurethane integrated strap is comfortable for high-exertion wear and daily use, and the watch boasts a 3.5-year battery life and is water resistant up to 100 meters.

Upright vs. Indoor Cycling Bikes
An upright exercise bike is designed for the user to sit on the seat and use built-in programming. When the flywheel moves, the pedals don't move without pedaling. An indoor cycling bike, by contrast, includes a heavy front flywheel that's designed to simulate the feel of outdoor cycling on a mountain or road bike. When the flywheel moves, the pedals also move. And unlike regular exercise bikes, which come to a stop when you remove your foot from the pedal, an indoor bike will continue to move. The result is a natural cycling motion that feels just like riding a bike outdoors. This means if you tighten the resistance and come out of the saddle as you ride, you'll feel as if you're cycling up a steep hill. Indoor cycling offers a number of benefits: it provides a time-efficient calorie burn; it tones your muscles and decreases body fat; it increases cardio endurance; it improves your overall strength; and it relieves stress.
