SIXStar Certification
Derived from extensive biomechanics research and user panel testing, SIXstar Certification is a unique combination of the six key elements needed to deliver the smoothest, most natural elliptical feel available.
  • ZEROgap provides ideal pedal placement with zero distance between them to eliminate stress on hips and back
  • StraightUP body posture keeps your body upright for maximum comfort, minimal fatigue, and faster results
  • Low, 10-inch step-on height to make it safer and easier to get on and off this elliptical
  • Optimal handlebar spacing puts grips within ideal reach and distance for both small and large-framed users
  • The 18-inch FLATellipse foot path provides a more natural foot path, mimicking walking and running motions while minimizing fatigue
  • The large drive pulley ratio increases the angular momentum of the elliptical so you get the smoothest, most efficient motion possible

Sonic Surround Speakers
In addition to two quality speakers, the console includes an MP3 input for playing your favorite workout music, and a headphone output for privacy.

Advanced Goal Center
Set your time, distance, or calorie-burning goals, and stay motivated as you watch your progress daily, weekly, or monthly.

5-Position Manual Incline
5 positions of incline and 16 levels of electronic resistance allow you to target different muscle groups and add more variety to your workout.

Frame Design
All-access. The front-drive design and low step-on height combine to make even first-time elliptical users more comfortable and confident.

Drive System
Dependable performance. A heavy-duty flywheel and magnetic brake resistance give Horizon ellipticals smooth, quiet and consistent starts and stops.

Stride and Pedal System
A natural advantage. The long stride and pivoting foot plates accurately match your natural motion for more comfort and less recovery time.
