Beny V-Fit 07PME Programmable Magnetic Elliptical Fitness Cross Trainer Review

Introduction:

With so many kinds of exercise equipment available today, it can be difficult to choose the right one. For many people, the choice comes down to a treadmill or an elliptical fitness cross trainer. A treadmill effectively works the large muscle groups in the lower body, but does nothing for the upper body. An elliptical trainer, on the other hand, is specifically designed to deliver a productive total body workout in the shortest possible time. Here’s some information about a machine we particularly like: the Beny V-Fit 07PME programmable magnetic elliptical.

Overall Rating:

4.5 out of 5.0 stars

Key Features:

This elliptical offers features usually found on more expensive models, such as dual action, meaning that you’re able to move in both a forward and reverse motion, engaging as many muscles as possible. Another feature is the friction free stepless resistance that’s controlled directly from the monitor. The monitor has 7 comprehensive functions and a good number of built in workout programmes (13), more than you’d typically find on an elliptical in this price range. Included in the programme range are 3 workouts that are heart rate controlled for maximum aerobic benefits.

Price: About £265.00

Product Description:

The Beny V-Fit 07PME is a feature rich elliptical trainer that offers plenty of variety for beginners and experts alike. You’re not likely to outgrow this machine, even after you’ve reached your fitness goals. It’s a pleasure to use — smooth and quiet. With its chip resistant aluminium coloured epoxy powder coated frame, this elliptical is built to last from oblong and round tubular steel. Powder coating is a finish that’s much more durable than ordinary paint because the coating actually melts and fuses to the surface of the metal in a curing oven. This results in a permanent, long-lasting finish that requires no maintenance.
