View Details

• The Matrix XR console has an 8.5” LCD and five standard preset workout programs. It’s also Passport-ready for showing Virtual Active video on a big-screen TV. Accessing these interactive video tours requires the separate purchase of a Passport Media Player.
• The XER console is outfitted with the same functions as the XR, plus it has a 10” touch screen, 10 preset workouts instead of five, three built-in video tours (no Passport Media Player required), Sprint8 high intensity interval training, mobile apps such as Facebook and MyFitnessPal, and integrated speakers with an MP3 player port.
• The XIR is the most advanced option for the Matrix E30. It has the same features as the XER except it’s equipped with 11 preset workout programs, a high-definition 16” touch screen and a web browser.
• The magnetic drive is housed at the center of the machine, which helps conserve floor space. The Matrix E30’s static footprint is just 59.5” x 29.5” and its active footprint isn’t much larger at 68.9” x 29.5”.

The Matrix E30 is a small and hefty center-drive elliptical machine for home use. Specs include an ergonomic 20” stride, a 23-pound flywheel, and a choice of three attractive workout consoles. The available display screens are a 16” touch screen on the XIR console, a 10” touch screen on the XER, and an 8.5” LCD on the XR. Here are details about the workout consoles and other features of the Matrix E30 elliptical.

Heart rate is a popular data point to track, and each console for the E30 makes this easy with a wireless heart rate receiver. (The required chest strap is included with purchase of an XER or XIR console, but is sold separately from the XR.) The Matrix E30 elliptical also has grip pulse readers built into its handlebars.

Music is easily integrated with both the XER and XIR consoles; connect your MP3 player and take advantage of on-board speakers. Additionally both the XER and XIR are loaded with mobile apps including Facebook, Twitter, Hulu, YouTube, MyFitnessPal and Weather… And getting online during exercise is especially convenient with the XIR console, which has a web browser for its 10” touch screen.

Striding on the E30 follows a 20” elliptical path. This is a natural fit for most adults, although not for people who are especially short.

Resistance comes from a 23.1-pound flywheel. Trainees get 20 resistance options with easy digital control. Magnetism rather than friction controls the braking, so the elliptical has quiet operation.

Pedals on the E30 elliptical machine are oversized for comfort; the extra room allows for repositioning of the feet to help riders avoid fatigue.

For the upper body the Matrix E30 gives two options: use the resistance of moving handlebars, or keep still and grip the cushioned stationary bars. Handlebars on the E30 have a basic straight design.

All Matrix E30 home ellipticals have bottle holders and reading racks.

With the Matrix E30 Elliptical XiR Console you get diverse workout options, high quality parts and long warranty, the E30 XIR trainer is built for shoppers who have a serious interest in keeping fit. The Matrix E30 elliptical’s resistance is a good match for intermediate-level trainees and newcomers to elliptical training.

MATRIX E50 ELLIPTICAL

VIEW DETAILS

The Matrix E50 elliptical is a uniquely smooth, compact and customizable elliptical trainer. It provides a 20” stride without claiming much floor space, but it’s especially rare for its induction braking, which is superior to the magnetic resistance found elsewhere. The Matrix E50 is sold with an enticing selection of consoles for exercise guidance and digital entertainment.

The Matrix E50 elliptical is a high quality low-impact trainer for home use. Key points are a customized console (choose from three), a heavy yet very compact frame, an ergonomic 20” stride, and 30 levels of resistance for a just-right challenge. The E50 elliptical has moving handlebars with multiple grip positions as well. It can be used for lower body training or total body training.

The Matrix E50 is rare among home ellipticals for using induction braking, which has benefits over the dominant technology of eddy current braking: even greater durability, faster response, and better precision. Induction braking also allows for ultra-smooth transitions among resistance levels, helping to make elliptical training even lower impact and more efficient.

• Virtual Active video tours can be used with any console for the A50. High-definition Virtual Active video is captured from a hiker’s viewpoint in tourist destinations worldwide, such as the Hawaiian Islands, Costa Rican jungle and New Zealand national parks. These videos can be viewed directly on certain Matrix consoles. Additionally with all A50 consoles the interactive videos can be experienced with a big-screen home TV.
• A50 Ascent Trainer makes it easy to pursue high intensity training by moving among incline and resistance levels. Additionally the top consoles have the manufacturer’s Sprint8 app, which delivers guided high intensity interval training along an eight-week schedule. Sprint8 workouts maximize training time to sculpt muscles, trim fat and improve the cardiovascular system.

With the Matrix A50 Ascent Trainer experience an amazingly smooth, exceptionally comfortable full-body workout thanks to our exclusive Suspension Elliptical Technology™ and PerfectStride™ Motion. The A50 Ascent Trainer includes our exclusive Exact Force Induction Brake ™, power incline and an expanded suite of integrated convenience features. The A50 consoles features a clean, bright display that makes it easy for you to check your workout data at a glance, keeping you on track to reach and surpass your goals.

The Matrix A50 Ascent Trainer is easily distinguished from competitors. Unlike other high-end cross trainers that have just one elliptical path, the Ascent Trainer has dramatic incline choices of 24% to 54% for targeted muscle toning. Also unlike its rivals, the A50 uses induction braking to give riders exceptional control over resistance. Passport-ready consoles for virtual outdoor hiking add to the appeal.

The A50 Ascent Trainer supports low-impact elliptical striding along extra-steep inclines. The A50 is an excellent tool for quickly burning calories and sculpting the whole body. The A50 is the top model in a small series, and it’s the only Matrix home Ascent Trainer to use cutting-edge induction braking instead of slower and less precise magnetic braking. Key points are incline settings from 24% to 54%; variable stride from 20 to 24 inches; 30 levels of resistance; and deluxe handlebars to exercise the upper body.
