Amazon.com Product Description
The Precor EFX 5.23 home Crosstrainer offers a complete cardio and muscle-toning lower-body workout. It features patented CrossRamp technology for Variable Stride Geometry, and eight programs help you choose the workout that best fits your fitness goal. Advanced heart rate monitoring ensures you stay in your target zone while an intuitive console displays additional workout metrics (not compatible with optional wireless transmitters). With a warm color palette and smooth lines, the 5.23 fits your home and lifestyle.



The patented CrossRamp angle adjusts from 15 to 25 degrees.


Stationary handrails provide multiple arm and hand positions for comfortable posture and proper technique.
Features:
  • Adjustable CrossRamp targets key muscle groups. The ramp angle is fully adjustable from 15 to 25 degrees and moves up and down at the push of a button, allowing you to individually target and work all major lower body muscle groups. Different ramp positions engage different lower body muscle groups. When moving the ramp from the bottom to the top, you'll feel various muscles engage and disengage--the lower positions activate all muscle groups, while the higher positions isolate glutes, quads, and calves. A variable stride length, from 18.5 to 20 inches, offers even greater diversity to your workout.
  • Multi-grip handrails. Stationary handrails provide multiple arm and hand positions for comfortable posture and proper technique during every workout.
  • Designed with your home in mind. With its smooth lines and subtle color palette, the EFX complements your home decor and suits your lifestyle.
  • Track your target heart rate. SmartRate offers instant display of your heart rate to help you stay in your target zone for a more efficient cardio and weight-loss workout. The 5.23 features touch heart rate with ergonomically positioned, touch sensitive grips.
  • Intuitive console is easy to read and adjust. Access Quickstart and programs at the touch of a button. The backlit LCD display shows your heart rate, calories burned and time/duration of exercise--to help you get the most from your workout.
  • Locking Pin: A locking pin secures the foot pedals, preventing movement, when not in use
  • 16 consistent levels of electromagnetic resistance to customize your workout
  • Two User IDs allow two people to enter and store personal preference information, then quickly retrieve it for future workouts
  • Integrated storage shelf for water bottle, portable music player, etc.
  • QuickStart lets you begin workout with the push of a single button
  • Optimized biomechanics combining low impact with smooth natural motion
  • Direction of rotation is completely reversible from forward to backward to allow even greater use of different muscle groups

5 out of 5 stars Best Workout When Pressed for Time   April 24, 2010
T. Wallace (Miami, FL USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I bought this elliptical 3 years ago for $4500, so I was amazed to learn today that it is only $2999 on Amazon. I have worked out on several machines and if your life is crazy like mine and you need maximum burn in the least amount of time, then this is it. My average calorie burn is 400 in 30 minutes at resistance level 11 and incline level 14, whereas on my Precor Treadmill, I only achieve half of that for about 210 calories. Gives excellent lower body and core muscle tone, and leaves your hands free to read an article, switch channels on the TV remote, drink a power shake, etc. The calories burned on the Precor 5.23 rival my weightlifting workouts that burn 1,000 calories per hour, and that's intense!!
