Typical elliptical exercise machines offer two basic forms of resistance for your workout, tension or friction on the flywheel, and incline/decline.
Most of these elliptical exercise machines don’t actually offer the ability to adjust the incline/decline of your workout, so you’re left with only the flywheel resistance. Normal flywheel resistance comes in two forms: Belt tension and magentic resistance.
The Precor Adaptive Motion Trainer changes all that with Dual-Plane Resistance, a patented system that applies resistance to both horizontal and vertical planes of motion, giving you yet another dimension of customization for your workout! Using the AMT, with both forms of resistance in tandem, you will notice a huge difference in the intensity of your workout.
