20 May At Home Fitness has Cybex 525AT and 770AT Total Body Arc Trainers

At Home Fitness is the exclusive specialty fitness retailer in Arizona to purchase award-winning Cybex Arc Trainers.

Cybex Arc Trainers have been proven to burn significantly more calories (16 percent) than an elliptical machine and they put 84 percent less stress on the knees. Research has shown that elliptical knee stress is comparable to performing lunges, while exercising on an Arc Trainer is like walking.

The lineup includes the Cybex 525AT Total Body Arc Trainer (MSRP $5,695) and Cybex 770AT (MSRP $10,645), which are available at all three At Home Fitness super stores in Arizona, as well as online at www.athomefitness.com.

What I love most about exercising on a Cybex Arc Trainer is how smooth a cardio workout feels on it and how little stress it puts on joints and ligaments.

People always make the comparison that elliptical machines take a lot more pounding away from the knees than a treadmill. Well, an Arc Trainer reduces stress a lot more than even an elliptical and you’ll get still get a great cardio workout as well as tone and strengthen the legs.

Cybex Arc Trainers allow the legs to travel in a biomechanically correct path of motion. There’s less stress on the knees and more activation of the glutes and hamstrings. If you exercise at a fast pace, it can be the next best thing to jogging or running.
