ElliptiGo

What do you get when you put together an elliptical and a bike? Besides amazingness you get the ElliptiGo.

So I'll admit that I haven't exactly tried this product yet, but I really want to! The elliptical is the only exercise equipment that I actually like, and I use the bike pretty regularly so this it would make sense on paper that this product would be great for me. Plus, since I suffer from a short attention span this product would be perfect for moving ( it is not stationary) instead of staying rooted in one spot.

Downside this guy costs about $2,199. Since it is relatively new it is safe to assume that if it does last for a few years it will probably be marked down tremendously.

Fitness magazine had a article about the product that alerted me to it's existence, otherwise I'm afraid I would have been clueless! I don't see this becoming a popular product here in Europe, since trends take about a decade to reach and I'm positive if I was home in rural Indiana I wouldn't see anyone riding around on one!

Have you found any new fitness equipment or products lately?

  2. I know it's been almost a year, but I just got one of these, after trying out at a fitness equipment store. If you bike, and like elliptical work-out machines, you really owe it to yourself to try it. The Web site lists stores in your area where you can take a test ride.

    It's REALLY fun!
