Octane Elliptical Trainer

You really need to know exactly what you want from a trainer before you head out to buy one. Look at the features they offer and decide which ones will be most beneficial to you. There are a large number of models in the Octane elliptical trainer line for buyers to choose from, all designed to meet the varying needs people have. Some are for gyms and some are for home use. There are high level trainers suitable for fitness experts and serious exercisers and there are lower end models that are more suitable for beginners and casual exercisers.

A lot of other fitness companies make a variety of fitness machines and equipment but Octane specialize in just elliptical trainers, also called Octane elliptical trainer. A lot of gyms use the octane elliptical trainer because of their quality and durability easily handling the many different people that use them each day. This puts them in the high end range which comes at a price ranging from $2199 to $3599.

Most of the Octane elliptical trainers are very similar; the Q35 and Q45 unlike the rest, do not have a wireless heart rate control. But the Q35 does have a quick change button that allows users to change their workout at any time, with 5 course options, a cool down mode and even a virtual trainer if you are looking for advice. The Q35e has several of these features but also can remember past workouts to give you a quick start option, a wireless heart monitor and can target the lower body too.

The Q45 is similar to the Q35 but as expected has extra features like stride lengths that are adjustable to fit different users, handlebars that are multi grip and a program that is specific to working out the upper body. The Q45e has those as well as the wireless heart rate monitor, five heart rate programs and a program for cross training.

Advanced models are the Pro35 which give extra levels of comfort such as more compact pedals and a tray for magazines and water bottles. The Pro350 is better suited for heavier users with a heavier frame that can take up to 400 pounds, as well as 25 resistance levels that all vary and digital heart rate sensors. Finally the Pro350XL has the top features. It has everything mentioned as well as an additional 5 resitance levels (making it 30) as well as allowing a longer stride length.
