There are many different types of elliptical trainers and elliptical trainer designs on the market. There are three drive systems available for elliptical trainers: front drive, rear drive, and center drive. Rear drive elliptical trainers were the first type of elliptical trainers in gyms and clubs. There are a growing number of front drive elliptical trainers on the market because front drive trainers are more generic. The individual's weight is centered in the middle of the machine on center drive elliptical trainers. (By Alexander Sutton)

Find the Best Elliptical Trainer to Fit Your Needs

Depending on your budget, you have a variety of options when it comes to purchasing elliptical trainers. The extra features make the end result of owning your elliptical trainer even greater, and of course that must cost extra. There are even some models that come equipped with arm handles, adding the upper body element to your elliptical trainer workout.

When you are looking at purchasing an elliptical trainer, you want to spend as much as you can afford to spend on an elliptical trainer, within reason. If you are a fitness novice, you do not need a $3,000 elliptical trainer, however noble your fitness intentions are. If you have twin babies, a loud whirring elliptical does not make much practical sense if you plan on working off that baby weight between feedings. Also, think about the size of the elliptical trainers you are looking at purchasing. Finding the best elliptical trainer for your needs shouldn’t be too difficult, with some good sound shopping.

How to Find the Best Elliptical Trainer

Bear in mind: not all elliptical trainers are created equal. You shouldn't overlook some very important functions when checking for an elliptical trainer for your personal use. Incidentally, there is no such thing as a "best elliptical trainer," only the best elliptical trainer for YOU.

There are a few functions you have to check your prospective elliptical trainer for. If you're of average height, you'll need a trainer with a stride length of around 21 inches -- 14 inches is too short for you. The elliptical trainer is a piece of low-impact cardiovascular exercise equipment, which means it shouldn't be straining to use.

The best elliptical trainer is almost always purchased firsthand. Older trainer models ought to go cheaper if they're secondhand, but if you're after maximum performance, nothing beats what's fresh from the factory. Look for a maintenance-free trainer that has a good warranty. (By Trevor Mulholland)
