Treadmill headrush? by
Help Me
I used a treadmill today for the first time.
When I was done and walked off the treadmill,
I felt a "headrush" -- a disorienting feeling.
Is that normal? Or does it mean that I did
something wrong?
I walk and bike ride periodically. I tend to
walk at 4 MPH on flat terrain.

Polar heart rate monitor battery life of transmitter by
Joe
I consider that Polar (or at least their UK agent Leisure Systems
International) are not very open about the battery life of the sealed
transmitter unit. After just 2.5 years they recommended that I spent
34 pounds on replacing the battery in the watch part AND obtaining a
new sealed transmitter...

Elliptical trainer adjustment query by

Hi there,
Could someone offer some advice to an elliptical trainer (and
exercise) newbie please.
I've recently bought a Proform 585EKG elliptical trainer. It's very
adjustable, nine positions for the pedals and three or four for the
upright. The question I have is what am I looking for when I...

$500 elliptical trainer recommendation by
GRL
I bike 20 miles a day at 17-20 mph (pretty quick) during/summer/fall for
exercise. Love it. However, winter is coming and that means snow and slush
and that makes riding the bike a little tough. So I'm looking for an
alternative for winter use.
I've tried elliptical trainers (bikes) and they seem...

IQ-Sport Qruzer Spin Bike repair parts by

Parts for Vitamaster Sports 89C Stationary Bike by

I just got a Vitamaster Sports 89C Stationary Bike at a yard sale. I
know it's old and nothing fancy but for $5 I figured I can't go wrong.
It works except for the digital readout for calories, speed, mileage,
etc. I thought it may need a battery but it seems to work by a
generator mounted on the...

Any comments about the Essential XT4 elliptical? by
ksoze
Finally got to try a few ellipticals at the local stores. Originally, I
thought about the Eclipse 1000HR but the cheap feel and noise made me feel
that it wouldn't be worth the money. I had heard good things about the
Kettlers, but when I tried the Condor, I didn't like the foot pad pitch --

Dear Friends:
Rosemary Vernon leads out the November issue of Dolfzine, now on line,

Review of the NordicTrack CX 995 Elliptical trainer by

We recently purchased the NordicTrack CX 995 Elliptical, and we like it very
much. It's solidly built, works very smoothly, and has a lot of useful
features, including a wireless heart-rate monitor.
It has one big flaw, in our opinion, in that you can't mute (or even reduce
the volume of) the...

Carido does -- but dieting helps most of all. You really can't burn

From what I understand, they aren't as quiet to ride as the newer

How many years can you expect...

Tunturi C6 Elliptical Crosstrainer? by
larry spellman
Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with the Tunturi C6
Elliptical? I'm shopping around for an elliptical exercise machine in the
$1000 price range, and that model looks good on paper... Haven't had a
chance to try one in the store yet, but definitely will do that before
purchase.
