Xterra FS150 Elliptical Trainer
With 24 levels of resistance, this elliptical trainer goes beyond the 8 levels featured on many similar compact elliptical trainers. XTERRA’s elliptical trainer also features a quality LCD display to track the progress of your workout and all your stats, pulse grips to keep track of your heartrate, the ability to plug in your phone and listen to your favorite music while working out, and 12 pre-set programs to help you plan your workout course.
The machine also has a computer-controlled resistance braking system as opposed to a manual one. The features all combine together to make for a comfortable workout that is still effective.
- I like being able to plug in my phone and listen to music from the machine
- This machine has more resistance levels than other machines I’ve tried
- There is a good variety amongst the workout programs, including ones for heart rate control, body fat burn, and timed workouts
- Plugs into a wall outlet so no need for batteries for the LCD display
- Despite the heavier flywheel, the elliptical machine rocks a bit while in use. It needs to be anchored down in order to hold still
- The base is narrow and this doesn’t help with the rocking problem
- Lower weight limit than other similar machines
