The truth is that they are all excellent and expertly designed to focus on both cardiovascular conditioning and muscular development. Each foot plate is cushioned and has the additional grip to keep your feet in place, as well as being adjustable to match your stride length. If you do place your machine in this location, you’ll want to make sure to close the shades or curtains to keep the sun’s rays away from the plastic. What better way to get up and running quickly and easily with your cross trainer than with twenty-three pre-programmed workout programs? The control panel is super simple to use and although the LCD display may not win any design awards, it displays all the key information you need and is well positioned.

Nothing rattled and unlike some budget cross trainers or exercise bikes there was no side to side rocking movement. They are a dream compared to some budget non brand treadmills that require a spare afternoon to put together with a scrappy instruction booklet. Reebok isn’t only a shoemaker; the company also produces a line of cross trainers that is exceptionally durable and easy to use. You can’t help but notice the distinctive Reebok branding and although this isn’t something we would be influenced by in terms of the usability, it does look the part.Just to give you an idea of how good this machine is, whenever I look at a mid-range cross trainer I always think of the Reebok ZR8 as a comparison.

OverviewJust to give you an idea of how good this machine is, whenever I look at a mid-range cross trainer I always think of the Reebok ZR8 as a comparison. With Reebok having established a solid reputation for home exercise equipment, we decided to give it the full Fitness Brain treatment in our full Reebok ZR8 Cross Trainer review.
