This under-desk elliptical machine helped me to start a daily work routine. I suffer from chronic inflammation, which causes my legs and feet to swell, so it is hard to get my steps in without excruciating pain. Sitting at a desk for hours leaves my legs feeling stiff, sore, swollen, and restless. This machine allowed me to get my steps in without pain shooting through my feet and legs. This machine gets my blood flowing and keeps my legs in motion. I have used it twice, and I noticed that the swelling is going down. This is turning out to be what I need to start my new exercise routine.
I loved that it arrived fully assembled; putting together machines can be tedious, and there is always an extra piece. It fits under my desk and is easy to move around because it has a built-in handle. It comes with a mat that keeps the machine in place while in motion. It's smooth and quiet, and you can't tell that it is on. It has adjustable speeds. First, start with a gentle speed before using the stride for a more active leg workout.. It also pedals forward and backwards. I must say that it's just like walking, and I feel the burn in my legs and thighs. There is even a slot to hold the remote control. The remote makes it easier to adjust the settings, speed, and direction without having to bend down under my desk.
