Announcing a Breakthrough in Cardio-Fitness: The Helix Lateral Trainer!
Unlike elliptical machines, the patented motion of the Helix also works the inner & outer thighs, delivering the kind of leg & glute sculpting usually seen only via weight training. Treadmills, steppers, and ellipticals; they all work the body in a front-to-back motion, with great aeriobiceresults but with little spot toning. The Helix™ "sideways figure 8" motion lets users target their toughest areas while they condition aerobically. What does this really mean? A truly enjoyable workout that gets better results in less time!
Burn fat and condition aerobically while you tone
Works the body laterally, engaging more muscles with each move
Superb training for athletes: enables skiers, golfers and tennis players to improve at their sport
Alternates directions effortlessly: work in to tone inner thighs, out to tone outer thighs
New Technology Rocks the Fitness World!
Boston, MA (September 17, 2008) Not since elliptical trainers hit the fitness world by storm a decade ago has the industry seen the introduction of a new, patented technology with the potential to transform the market. Not until now, that is.
The Helix, introduced in March at the IHRSA industry trade show in San Diego, has generated unprecedented buzz in the fitness world-- a group notoriously jaded by over-hyped "next big things".
The reason for the enthusiasm? Unlike nearly every aerobic exerciser on the market, the Helix simultaneously works the inner and outer thighs and the butt, delivering the kind of dramatic leg and glute sculpting results normally achieved only via weight training.
While treadmills, steppers, bikes, and ellipticals all work the body in a front-to-back plane, the Helix,, with its unique counter-rotating "figure eight" range of motion, allows users to target their toughest areas while they burn fat and condition aerobically.
Gym owners are equally enthused with the Helix™ promise to revolutionize the "group ex" category, currently dominated by spinning classes. "The Helix lends itself perfectly to group exercise classes," says Helixco President Lenny Snyderman. "There are so many ways that you can work out on this machine. You can change direction to alternate between working the inner and outer thighs, adjust the tension, and vary the degree of weight bearing. The gyms I've spoken to are excited to offer their members something other than just the same old spinning class."
The Helix Lateral, Side to Side, Figure Eight Motion Delivers Better Results for Toning and Shaping, Weight Loss, Sports Therapy & Physical Rehabilitation.
Think about it. Nearly every single piece of fitness equipment in the gym works the body in a forward-to-backward motion. Treadmills, ellipticals, steppers, bikes ... they all move front to back. The Helix® does something completely new. It is a lateral trainer, so it works the body from side to side as well as front to back.
Why is Side-to-Side Better?
It engages more muscles for faster fat burning. The Helix® engages all of the muscles of the lower body, actively working the #1 trouble spots for most women: the inner and outer thighs and glutes. That translates to superior results: shapely legs and a toned and lifted butt.
