ELLIPTICAL
CORRECTLY ALIGNED
ORTHOPEDIC
FOOT PADS
Through
research performed
with a leading
sports
scientist
and physical
rehabilitation
expert;
SOLE engineering
has developed
a breakthrough
in pedal design.
No other
elliptical,
at any
price, offers this unique
feature.
The history
of elliptical
use over the past few years tells us that
many users suffer from numb
toes while
working
out on elliptical
trainers.
Many other
users
complain
of ankle, Achilles
tendon,
knee and/or
hip pain.While
researching
a solution
to these
common
problems
SOLE engineers
consulted
Richard
DeKok, RT., M.T.C., of St. Bernard's
Industrial
Rehabilitation
Center in Jonesboro
Arkansas.Together
we identified
the inherent
problem
in elliptical
designs
and developed
a solution
to solve the problem.What
we found
is
that when you use an elliptical
you tend to push outward
during
the power
stroke and not just
straight
back.This
causes stress on the outer
part of the foot and throws
offthe
natural
alignment
of the joints.
Our solution
was simple
but effective:
II
We added a 2-degree
inward
angle to the footpads.This
might
sound
simple but what it
does is puts the users joints
back into a neutral
alignment.This
eases the over stressing
of
the ankles,
knees and hips.
RAMP INCLINE
ADJUSTMENT
The E98 has an incline
feature
that will further
increase the
variety
of your workouts.
When the
incline
is at its lowest
position
you get a normal
elliptical
workout.
As the incline
increases
you
will feel your knees rise higher
with each step; which
means you are
involving
more muscle
fibers, due to the increased
range of motion.
The E98 has a computer
controlled
power
incline.The
power
incline
is controlled
by buttons
on the console
and will automatically
adjust via the incline
motor
during
the built-in
workout
program.
