THE ULTIMATE IN ACCESSIBILITY Manufactured to exceed commercial leading standards, the E9 Elliptical's unique center-drive design enables you to exercise in an upright position to reduce stress on the back and the knees. Replicate the natural stride of an outdoor running motion with zero-impact on your joints. Its footprint is 20% smaller than competing models to fit better in your home. THE MOST NATURAL STRIDE - Our patented center-drive replicates the body's natural motion. COMFORT AND EASE - Orthopedic "gel" footpads provide optimal comfort and relieve foot fatigue. An integrated rear step reduces step-up height to 7", the lowest of any elliptical. The integrated side-frame footrests with non-skid surfaces allow for isolated upper-body workouts. Moving handrails feature molded contoured finger grips. LANDICE CONTROL CENTER - The Landice Control Center comes standard on the E9 Elliptical. Included is an integrated reading/accessory rack; a personal cooling fan; and a convenient water bottle holder. Check out our additional items that will enhance your workout in the console image. CONTACT HEART-RATE MONITORING - The Landice E9 Elliptical comes standard with a wireless heart rate monitoring device and a contact heart rate crossbar to give you feedback on how your body is affected by your workout. METABOLIC-EQUIVALENT SPEED INDICATOR - An advanced algorithm calculates your metabolic-equivalent speed based on your effort level and pedal speed. For example, if you can exercise at a metabolic-equivalent speed of 11 MPH on the Elliptical, you are capable of running 11 MPH outside.
