ElliptiGO: Running free in Hyde Park

Normally I start my day cycling into town closely followed by a coffee. Not today.

Today I started my day cycling to the other side of town to give this new US fitness craze a run for its money. I’m a bit of a runner, a lot of a cyclist and I’m ALWAYS curious in anything new, especially something that looks as intriuguing as this…

ElliptiGO: The world's first Elliptical bicycle

The ‘bike’ is presented onto the market as being beneficial for both runners and cyclists. The motion of riding it emulates running but without the impact, so it’s perfect for anyone recovering, rehabilitating or looking for a good cross-train option.

For cyclists it’s a great cross-training alternative to your regular cycling training, especially valuable if you want or need to reduce impact (to zero!). The biggest pull for me is that it’s a serious workout. I was probably more tired after 1 mile on the ElliptiGO than I would be after 10 miles on my bike, so for building up cardiovascular fitness this would definitely be a good option.

You can see the ElliptiGO in extreme action here.

And me in action here!

The ElliptiGO 8S retails for £1,599 (excl. VAT).
