Elliptical trainers have footpads that allow you to stand up while you exercise. They have handgrips for you to hold onto and help maintain balance.Some even have handles to use in working your upper body.Because you are standing, the exercise is similar to walking or running, but the arm bars and elliptical motion create similarities with biking or skiing. The main difference with elliptical exercise machines is that although you are standing and bearing weight, which is important for building bone density, your feet never leave the footpads. So unlike treadmills or jogging, there is little impact on your joints and muscles. This provides a low impact, total body workout.
