Product Description

The Ironman Adventure elliptical provides a revolutionary design with its patented Center Drive Technology. Its unique structural design puts the user in a biomechanically correct position to enhance performance. A more natural, upright positioning during a workout means better balance, stability, and ultimately a better workout. Additionally, improved positioning and overall balance reduce the opportunity for injuries, as minimum stress is placed on weight-bearing joints. The advanced console electronics are highlighted with a large blue and yellow backlit LCD display, which provides clear feedback on all the necessary information during your workout.

About Elliptical Trainers
Elliptical trainers represent the next wave of advancement in low-impact cardiovascular exercise machines and continue to grow in popularity. By simulating motions experienced through walking, stepping, cycling, and skiing, elliptical machines allow for a smooth and fluid motion while building strength in the arms and legs. Similar to the exercise position for treadmills, elliptical trainers are used by standing in an upright position while holding the handrails of the machine. With elliptical trainers, however, your feet remain in the foot pedals throughout the exercise regimen and circulate in a smooth and seamless motion, resulting in little to no impact on the knees, back, and hips.

Elliptical trainers are compatible for all ages and fitness levels and allow you to select the difficulty level through the incline and intensity settings. Additionally, elliptical trainers allow you to determine the complexity of your workout based on your needs, all while listening to music, watching television, or reading a magazine while exercising in the comfort and safety of your own home.

Although different types of elliptical trainers offer an assortment of features, many of them include an array of challenging programs, forward and reverse directional movement, EKG grip pulse handles, a lightweight portable design with easy fold-up capability, and a monitor displaying calories burned, distance, speed, time, and heart rate. Other types of exercise machines, namely treadmills and bikes, offer excellent cardiovascular exercise and muscular training for the legs in a forward-motion exercise. Elliptical trainers take this to the next level by offering an upper and lower body workout with dual motion, challenging and diverse programs, and a low-impact exercise machine that won't strain sensitive joints.

Review Date: January 7, 2009
Reviewer: P. Giles, McKinney, Texas
We purchased the Elliptical Trainer as an early Christmas gift. It arrived early and was very easy to set up. The instructions were easy to read and follow. We have been using the elliptical for over a month now and love it. We would recommend this to anyone looking for a home gym.
user comment Ironman Adventure Elliptical Trainer So far, great machine, especially for the price

Reviewer: Dorit Rubinstein, San Jose, CA, USA
We have the elliptical now for two months. We bought it knowing that replacing parts will be an issue and that the warranty probably won't mean much. Still, for that price, an elliptical of that quality is a bargain, however long you get out of it. So far it's fine.
Strengths: it has a lot of programs; it has long strides, and is very stable; it was relatively easy to put together; it's a fairly smooth stride; it can give very powerful resistance; it has a water cup holder. We're getting a lot of use from it.
Weaknesses: well, no good place to put your book. the heart rate monitor does not catch the signal from my monitor, and the hand grasps for it are not in a convenient location. Aside from these petty things, it's fine.

My Adventure elliptical is still in pretty new shape probably because I don't put enough time on it. *embarrassed look* :-D For those that might need help with parts, I found this over on Treadmill Doctor's site.

user comment Ironman Adventure Elliptical Trainer Have had problems...
 
Review Date: December 13, 2008
Reviewer: D. Stewart,
After a few months of light to medium usage, our Ironman Adventure started making a minor "click" on many revolutions. After 8 months, that click suddenly turned into a major noise and vibration, making the unit unusable. As it had a one year warranty on parts and labor, we called the number in the manual in early November 2008. The service person was very helpful and promised delivery of parts to my home and that a repair person would call within 72 hours. Neither happened. Multiple calls since then have been met by an answering machine message saying they are moving and can't take calls until (the date keeps changing). Finally we received an e-mail response saying another company would be taking over from Keys Fitness for repair work but "all warrantees are no longer valid"! During all this delay, I disassembled our unit and am confident our problem was a failure in a sealed bearing in one of the petal tubes. I could easily replace the tube if I could get one, but I do not want to pay for one when it was defective and under warranty. I have been pleased with the design, quality of construction in general, and operation of the unit. I do not know of any elliptical I would prefer in this price range if this one were only adequately supported.
