Correct use of elliptical machine

It's important to warm up

Many people do not have the habit of warming up before exercise. It is very necessary to warm up before exercise. Wake up the body muscles and make the body ready for exercise. It is generally recommended that 3-5 minutes be better, and recommend some actions suitable for warming up. You can choose freely:

15-30 times of open and close jumps, 15-30 times of standing high leg runs, 15-30 seconds of lunge stretch on each side, 15-30 seconds of both feet open and three-dimensional forward bending touch the ground, 15-30 seconds of arm stretch on each side, 15-30 seconds of shoulder joint circle, and 20 seconds of wrist and ankle circle.

Be safe on board

First of all, before each use, it is necessary to ensure that the machine is placed stably, whether the parts of each link joint are loose, and check that the track is not derailed. When getting on the machine, hold the fixed handle with your hand, get on the machine with one foot from the lower side of the pedal, and step on the pedal on the other side with the other foot. Ensure that both feet are firmly on the pedal, keep both feet at the same position in front of the pedal, ensure that the left and right feet have the same movement track, and prevent slipping during movement. Hold the mobile handrail or fixed handrail with both hands.

Correct posture

When using the elliptical machine, remember to keep your body upright, lift your head and chest up, keep your feet away from the pedal during the movement, tighten the core and keep the center of gravity stable, and do not lift your heels. Don't bend over, tilt left and right, and don't be lax. The following problems are easily caused by the negative side:

1. Knee pain, ankle pain.

2. Losing weight has no effect and doing no work.

3. General discomfort.

4. Long-term incorrect posture will cause sports injury.
