Correct use of elliptical machine
1, elliptical function organically combines the movements of arms and legs, which can coordinate limbs and shape a healthy body when used frequently. Long-term practice is helpful to improve physical endurance, exercise cardiopulmonary function, calm mind and improve sports ability.
The elliptical machine is suitable for all kinds of people. For healthy people, elliptical function can enhance physical fitness and improve physical fitness; For people with poor knees and ankles, when walking or running, the impact force generated when the feet touch the ground often makes the joints ache, so it is safer and more comfortable to exercise with an elliptical machine.
In the exercise place, we often see some exercisers mistake the elliptical machine for a treadmill. When exercising, only the legs exert force, and the arms only play a stabilizing role under the driving of the legs, or simply do not hold the handrails. When using the elliptical machine to exercise, if the hands and feet are not coordinated, the harder you work, the more nervous you are, and the more intense the confrontation between the upper and lower limbs is. It may also lead to fatigue, muscle strain and even fall down due to uncoordinated movements.

5. You can do two-way movements before and after practicing with the elliptical machine. When practicing, you can generally practice forward for 3 minutes, then do backward for 3 minutes, and practice for 5-6 minutes in a group. It is best to practice 3-4 groups in each activity. The frequency of action should be gradually accelerated, but not too fast, and it must be within your control.
