Cybex Arc Trainer Review

[rating:4.5]

Pros: Comfortable, excellent display, well-built
Cons: Handlebar placement is not for everyone, awkward place for bottle holder

Most people think of the Cybex Arc Trainer as an elliptical machine, but it's really a different beast. It has a slightly different range of motion than an elliptical, so it can take a bit of getting used to.

This well-built, sturdy machine is almost silent, with comfortable foot pedals. Where elliptical machines tend to put more pressure on the feet and calves, the Cybex machine is more comfortable. My feet often get numb after a half an hour or more on an elliptical machine, which doesn't happen on the Cybex.

I also find the balance on the Cybex is better than most elliptical machines. I often work out on the Cybex with my arms swinging, which is not something I feel comfortable doing on an elliptical. I always feel like I'm one step away from losing my balance when I do this on an elliptical.

I find the adjustments on the Cybex Arc Trainer are more effective than most ellipticals as well. On the elliptical machines at my local gym, I can raise the incline setting to the maximum and it's still not all that difficult. On the Cybex, the incline can be set from 1 to 10, with a maximum stride length of 24 inches (which I normally set to 8 or 9) and the resistance can be set from 1 to 100 (I normally use 40-50). These settings will work for anyone, from the rank beginner to hardcore athletes.

The Cybex includes several programs:

• Quick Start
• Weight loss
• Cardio
• Interval
• Hill
• Strength

I normally use the Manual setting so I can have more control over things.

The display shows you several things during your workout:

• Distance
• Calories
• METs
• Strides per minute
• Heart rate

It will either cycle through all of the settings, or you can have it display one of them all the time.

There are a couple of things to consider if you're new to the Cybex. First, the motion is a little different than most elliptical machines, so if you're not used to it, it's probably going to take you a little while to adjust to the difference.

Second, there is no cooldown mode, so you need to account for that yourself when you finish your workout. If you step off without cooling down first, you might find you feel a little dizzy. Also, make sure you're careful when you step off. If you get off with the pedals still moving fast, they could whack you in the shin!
