An elliptical trainer primarily targets the lower body, including the:
- Legs: Ellipticals work the quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, and glutes.
- Core: The elliptical motion engages the abdominal muscles and lower back for stability.
- Arms: While not the primary focus, using the handles provides a light workout for the biceps, triceps, and shoulders.
Ellipticals offer a low-impact workout, making them a suitable option for individuals with joint pain or injuries. They also provide a cardiovascular challenge, improving endurance and burning calories.
