Recumbant Cross Trainer

Instructions

Preparation

Sit on seat, place feet on pedal platforms and grasp lever bars.

Execution

'Step' while alternating handle bars back and forth.

Comments

The seat swivels and the arm rest lifts up to allow easier access. Adjust seat so knees are short of full extension. Adjust length lever bars to allow elbow to extend yet opposite arm to remain just in front of the body. Intensity can be altered by resistance and speed (steps per minute). To increase resistance push lever forward and down. To decrease resistance pull lever backward and up.
