Because there is no hard focus, the biggest feature of elliptical exercise is that it has little damage to the knee joint, which is more suitable for people with joint problems such as waist, legs and neck.
3. Not recommended for children.
Although the elliptical machine is safe, it is not recommended for children to play and use it alone. Children can't handle accidents alone. Because the flywheel inertia of elliptical machine is large, it is difficult for children to control it, so it is best to use it with parents.
Correct posture of using elliptical machine
1. Warming
Hold the handrail of the column with both hands, pedal alternately with both legs, and follow the natural movement of the column with both arms for about 5 minutes.
take exercise
If it is a built-in exercise program, there is no need for manual intervention. Increase the pedaling strength and speed of the legs, and follow the column with the arms to cooperate with the "push" and "pull" actions.
Whole body coordination
The waist and hips follow the pedals and uprights to move as a whole, so as to achieve the effect of whole body movement.
Resume exercise
When we use the elliptical machine to exercise, we also need to have a rest. It is enough to do a "recovery" exercise for about 5 minutes later in the exercise process. There are not many requirements. The process of "recovery" is from urgent to slow, so that the body has enough adaptation process.

Whether climbing forward or backward, for the elliptical machine, it is actually to exercise the legs, especially the thighs. However, climbing backwards is not easy to control, and it is easy to be dangerous, and the pressure of climbing backwards will increase, which will have a bad influence on the ligaments and tendons of the knee joint for a long time.
2. When using, the sole of the foot must be attached to the pedal, so as to ensure the stability during exercise and reduce unnecessary danger.
3. At present, many elliptical machines can adjust the slope, and the effect of different slope exercises is different. Therefore, it is more challenging to change to a more difficult slope sport after adapting to a slope sport, and it will also better shape the perfect figure.
4. Pay special attention when you finish the exercise. Elliptical machines have inertia. We can't stop at high speed, which is easy to cause sports injuries. Slow down the movement frequency, and wait for the machine to stop slowly before getting off the elliptical machine! Those who have seen it will see:
