Getting fit has never been easier - or quieter! The Horizon Fitness EX22 Elliptical Trainer makes fitness easier and quieter than it has ever been! This machine is delivered in a compact package that fits any room. With an easy-access front-drive design, low step-on height, and a natural, more comfortable pedal alignment. The fluid, continuous velocity ensures smooth, silent operation. Console - The dashboard - where you control key metrics like resistance and program. The SMARTboard console advantage? Horizon consoles emphasize simplicity, with logical control locations, so you spend less time in the instruction manual and more time working out. Programs - Your workout choices. Types and options vary by manufacturer. The SMARTboard program advantage? Horizon ellipticals offer programs with greater resistance ranges, in smaller increments, so you progress smoothly from one level to the next. Feedback - The screens that display key metrics like speed and heart rate. The SMARTboard feedback advantage? Horizon s screens are placed in the center of the console, where they re easy to view at a glance. The technology we put behind them enhances clarity, speed and accuracy. Flywheel - Maintains pedal and arm momentum. The heavier the flywheel, the smoother and quieter the elliptical operates. The SUPERconductor flywheel advantage? Horizon uses a heavy-duty flywheel that provides continuous velocity, so as your feet move the pedals, the momentum carries you through the complete motion. It feels very natural, not choppy. And they re quiet, which makes them perfect for home use. Resistance - Applies a brake to the flywheel, making pedal and arm motion easier or more challenging. The SUPERconductor resistance advantage? Horizon uses a magnetic brake that gives you smoother, more consistent resistance during a workout. It s also much quieter than a standard brake. Drive location - Where the flywheel is placed in the unit. It s either in front, underneath the console, or in the rear, behind the user. The SUPERconductor drive location advantage? Horizon uses a front-drive design for one simple reason: it s easier to use. Rear-drive units make getting on the elliptical like getting on a horse, which is awkward, especially for first-timers. With front-drive, you simply approach the unit like a flight of stairs. And rear-drive ellipticals place most of the weight in the back. You also tend to lean forward on a rear-drive unit, so the weight s distributed along the entire unit, making it less stable. With front-drive, the weight is in front of and underneath you, so you re centered, balanced and comfortable. Access - Where you enter and exit the elliptical. The INstep access advantage? - Our stacked flywheel design - with the flywheel above the pedals vs. in line with them - gives you a lower step-on height. The lowest in the industry, in fact. So it s easier than ever for anyone to use an e
