As an owner of ellipticals, I was hesitant to try something new. I am so glad I did! This machine has a whole new mechanism that targets the thighs, quads, and glutes differently than any other cardio machine. Very impressive to say the least. I have had prior knee surgeries as well, and this machine causes no discomfort and has a very fluid motion. This is definitely something every home gym needs!

I was skeptical about getting a Helix, I have never seen or used one, but after working on one it has convinced me of their exceptional performance.

I like cross training and this one is greatly helping.

I purchased this for my special needs son who has a Craniofacial syndrome which affects his breathing, muscle tone and balance. We have been working with an exercise physiologist and when the gym closed down due to Covid I asked him what I should get for my son to continue working out at home. He told me the lateral was a must. I researched and found helix. I spoke to the salesperson and he told me about this model and we purchased it. My son uses it daily. He no longer needs a Cpap to sleep and he is stronger than ever. His doctors are impressed with how well he is doing. He has confidence, high self esteem and feels great. His gait has improved and his muscle tone increased. I started using it as well and it definitely tones and makes you work. I recommend this to anyone whether young or old, who wants to tone, improve health and for the special needs community who need something fun that helps burn off energy, fat and that makes them feel accomplished and proud. It was definitely the best investment I made for our health and well-being! Highly, highly recommend!!
