factual findings
Results of two university studies confirmed that the s trainer:
• Provides similar heart rate and caloric expenditures to those a user would
experience when running on a treadmill at between 6.0 and 7.0 mph
• Burns calories 30% faster than an elliptical machine at a similar cadence
• Range of motion is safe for joints
• Engages small stabilizer muscles that are essential for balance
• Effectively targets the core and lateral muscle groups
combines cardio, core and stability training. Other cardio fitness products
employ the large muscle groups associated with forward motion. the s772
Pinnacle trainer combines this forward motion with sideways movement to
employ small muscle groups that enhance core stability and balance. not only
can exercisers improve their cardiovascular health and tone large muscle
groups, but they can also strengthen their core – a unique combination in the
realm of cardio fitness products.
SPECIFICS
Participants
Male and Female Participants Between Ages 20-24 w/
Average Levels of Fitness
Methodology
Heart rate and RPE were recorded at the end of each
minute of the exercise test. In addition, a metabolic
measuring system (TrueMax 2400, ParvoMedics Inc.,
Salt Lake City) recorded variables such as accumulated
kilocalories, oxygen consumption [VO2], minute
ventilation [VE], and metabolic equivalencies [METs].
• Males & Females: Subject worked at speed set on
metronome from Pinnacle
• 3 minute exercise intervals with increasing
resistance by 3 at each interval
• Speed maintained by keeping pace with metronome
(same self-selected speed as the Pinnacle condition)
• Elliptical max resistance was 20
• Unless terminated by subject, test was terminated
at 30 minutes
Pinnacle Trainer Protocol
• Males & Females: Subject selected speed and metronome was set
• 3 minute exercise intervals with increasing resistance by 3 at each interval
• Speed maintained by keeping pace with metronome
• Test ended when subject could no longer push pedals at speed of metronome
• Males: speed 7.0, 3 minute intervals. Increase incline by 2% for each interval – speed is constant
• Females: speed 6.0, 3 minute intervals. Increase incline by 2% each interval – speed is constant
• Test ended when the subject pulled the stop key off the treadmill
