Good Grapevine
My grapes are bursting with info and flavour for you to devour!

I really wasn’t all that familiar with elliptical machines. I knew all about treadmills. I have used treadmills in the past and remembered that I didn’t enjoy them at all. They were loud, cumbersome and I didn’t like the feeling of my feet slapping against the moving tread. It jarred my knees and, to be honest, I also had a bit of trouble keeping my balance while running.

As you know, there are people who don’t like to work out, and I’m among them. It is hard for me to get a motivation for exercising, but I like the feeling I have after my exercising routine. I need to distract myself while I work out. After I gained 20 pounds, I realized I had to do something. I tried aerobic videos but didn’t enjoy them. I joined a gym but never had the time to get there. Then my husband suggested that we buy one of the elliptical trainers. And then we started to look for an elliptical trainer that would be best for our budget.

And Sole fitness equipment is what we chose. There are more than one feature I love about this machine, but the fact that it is so quiet is the best of them all. I am able to watch my TV show and exercise at the same time because I placed my elliptical trainer in my living room. I don’t have to have the television volume turned to a deafening level just to be able to hear over the sound of the elliptical. When compared to treadmill, an elliptical machine is super quiet.

One of the other things I enjoy about it is that the foot pads you step on move with you. So as my foot raises up to take a step, the footpad raises up with me. A moving tread is not something your feet will hit all th time. The elliptical trainer offers a fluid motion since the arm bars are moving along with your body, and this is the best way to keep your balance and get a total body workout.

After exercising on this Sole elliptical, it is hard for me to imagine moving back to a treadmill.
