Mystery Cardio Machine

snorker88

Hi everyone,

This is probably a stupid question, but I used a machine in the gym this morning and I have no idea what it is called and would like to find out so I can log it accurately on here!

It was kind of a cross between an eliptical trainer and one of those hill climbing machines- quite good fun actually!

Anyway, I couldn't find any members of staff at the gym to ask and can't find it on the internet so I was wondering if anyone else knew?!!

Thanks!

Cardio wave was my guess too, there's one in my gym....it's a machine you will never see a guy on, the action is a bit feminine ha

Mystery solved!!!- it's called an 'ascent trainer'

Thanks for your suggestions- yes the cardio wave is a bit girly!!

i love the cardio wave but it does tend to put us girls in a compromising position when there's someone behind us to check out the view! haha

haha!

I couldn't get the momentum going last time I went on it- people were probably laughing at the spectacle I was making of myself! Oh well, can't be as bad as falling off the treadmill (yes, I've done that too!)
