Precor 556 Elliptical (refurbished) Info
The right name for this popular piece of fitness equipment is Precor EFX556.
It's built for cardiovascular exercise and features a no-impact, forward or reverse elliptical stride that lets you adjust ramp and resistance for cross training benefits.
The electronically set Cross Ramp™ lets you adjust the slope of the stride with the touch of a key to vary muscle emphasis.
Examinations confirm that the EFX provides excellent aerobic conditioning, muscle involvement, and range of motion. And, users report lower rates of perceived exertion on the EFX than on traditional machines. This means that the EFX encourages users to work out harder and more productively.
Biomechanical Benefits:
- 40% more gluteal involvement than traditional machines
- Exceptional hip flexion and extension, knee range of motion
- Body position reduces potential for aggravation of knee injuries
- Reverse motion emphasizes hamstrings, forward glutes
- EFX exercisers had lower rates of perceived exertion (RPE) than with other exercise modalities; it provides a sufficient metabolic challenge for development and maintenance of cardiovascular fitness
- More calories are burned with reverse motion at a given speed and resistance.
The Cross Ramp Indicator lets users see how the EFX targets different muscles.
As the Cross Ramp changes during a programmed course or is manually adjusted, the color indicator displays which muscles are being emphasized, letting users see what they're feeling.
Cross Ramp™ makes the EFX a very versatile cardiovascular machine, which is ideal for exercisers of all ages and fitness levels.
