Footpads
The Foot pedals are adjustable to meet the
user’s style of pedaling the elliptical. There are
three positions available with a simple pull-pin
adjustment located under the footpads (see
illustration below).The lowest position will set the
footpads at zero (0) degrees, or flat at the bottom
of the elliptical stroke. The second position sets
the footpad at five (5) degrees and the top
position sets the footpads at ten (10) degrees.
Because everybody is different, we found there is
no one angle that fits every user. Some users are
up on the balls of their feet, resulting in numb toes, so we decided to allow the user to
adjust the back of the foot pad upward to support the heel, taking the pressure off of the
nerves in the balls of the feet and the Achilles tendon. The result was relief from the toes
going numb. Some users are uncomfortable at a fixed angle, therefore we added the
adjustable pedal angles so they could find one that feels best for them. A great side benefit
of the adjustable footpad angle is that you end up working the muscles of the lower
extremities in a different way. At the highest angle, you will work the quadriceps more. At
the lowest angle, you work the hamstrings and gluts harder.
