Review of Body Rider Elliptical Trainer

I bought this machine and just finished reviewing it!  So, naturally I knew you’d want to hear about it!

Body Rider Magnetic Elliptical Trainer
4.0 out of 5 stars Overall this machine is a good value, March 1, 2010

This machine delivers a good aerobic workout, it's very easy to put together and does well at serving it's purpose with a very low level of tightening maintenance and is overall a good value for for the price.

Pros:

We've had this machine for a little over a month now and I am pretty happy with it, especially for the price. My wife and I use it everyday and it has delivered a great workout as expected for an elliptical. It's also not too big, some of these machines can be bulky and take up too much space but this machine is easily stored and used comfortably in a 3'x5' space. The digital display is pretty standard offering all the basics along with an estimated caloric burn.

Cons:

Being an affordable personal use machine it isn't super solid those you see in gyms and can become loud and creaky, but that can be somewhat alleviated by tightening the key bolts and joints that move most often while in use. I'm about 5'10" and the stride length is a bit short for me but it still does the job.

Here’s hoping I lose a few more pounds thanks to this baby,
