Black MagneTrainer- ER is a lightweight and compact mini exerciser that weighs 23 pounds and measures 16L x 9W x 16H inches, has a 15-inch wide base (both legs are 15 inches each) for great stability and a solid alloy steel frame for many long years of use if not treated badly. When you’re using it for your feet you have the Velcro straps that you can adjust easily for accommodating different foot sizes. But as you’re probably already aware the pedals work with hands as well.
MagneTrainer- ER Mini Bike has an LCD-backlit electronic display that shows the time exercised, calories burned, current speed and distance traveled. You need two AA batteries for the digital monitor (included with your purchase). It works smoothly and quietly and has a great magnetic resistance range and continuous resistance control. You can work out comfortably when you sit on your chair or couch and while playing or working on your laptop, speaking on the phone or watching TV. You can strengthen and tone your shoulders and arms by holding the molded pedals for a comfy grip for your hands.
The MagneTrainer-ER is used by many physiotherapists and doctors. As it works very quietly you can use it in the office with your work colleagues around and they won’t even notice any extra noise. It has a patented design with the dual pulley, 3-piece crank, touch-free magnetic resistance, 7 heavy-duty precision sealed bearings and 4V long lasting belts. It offers a low impact workout without being a burden on your joints and the smooth motion on the pedals with the 39-pound effective flywheel is actually good for your joints as part of a physical therapy.
You’re not restricted with just 8 levels of resistance like on other bikes and you can set it to any value within a very wide range with its 5-rotation dial. The electronic monitor is turned on automatically when you start pedaling and will turn off once you’re done. It is a bidirectional arm and leg exerciser and you may pedal it both forwards and backwards. This way you can build better muscle balance, according to the physiotherapists.
You’ll see it used in physical therapy clinics, nursing homes, hospitals and assisted living facilities. It is suitable for use for low to medium intensity workout and physiotherapy purposes, even though it can also be used for heavy training. If you’re a regular gym guy or gal that lifts heavy weights, this will not be a replacement for your kind of workout. The price is not particularly low for a mini arm and leg exerciser but you’re paying for quality and functionality and much higher level of magnetic resistance of other mini exercisers. It comes with a full year of warranty that covers parts, labor and shipping and a 30-day money back guarantee.
