The patented Converging CrossRamp® is designed to mimic a person’s normal converging path of motion as they walk and run.

It makes exercise feel more natural and offers a better workout experience.

Its unveiling follows three independent research studies, along with rigorous testing to optimise the design.

Studies were also commissioned on diversity of motion paths and the impact on the body, such as how muscle activation patterns can change depending on the training angle.

Other premium features include the touch screen console option with a modernised design and sleeker frame.

Offering exercisers more personalised workouts and entertainment.

The covered ramp, rear cover and pivot joints also make for easier cleaning and maintenance.

It’s faster to service due to many tool-less detachable panels, and the Active Status Light™ alerts staff when it needs attention.

“When we created the elliptical category in 1995 with the original EFX, there was nothing like it on the market.

The newest EFX takes all the science and business insights we’ve collected over the past two decades and incorporates them into this unrivalled, updated version,” said Jim Birrell, Precor’s chief innovation officer.
