Enjoy a low-impact workout while diversifying your exercise routine with the Livestrong LS10.0E elliptical trainer. The LS10.0E reduces stress on your legs by mimicking the natural path of your ankle, knee, and hip joints. Because your feet remain on the pedals at all times, there is zero impact, making the trainer a great option for people with sensitive joints, folks who are rehabbing after knee injuries, or even newcomers starting a fitness program for the first time. An elliptical also offers a full-body workout that includes resistance for the quadriceps, chest, back, hamstrings, glutes, triceps, and biceps. As a result, you'll tone your muscles while keeping your metabolic heart rate up, helping you burn calories long after your workout is finished.
 The console includes built-in speakers, an LCD display, and 2 LED feedback windows. |
It takes a heavy flywheel to produce a smooth performance. The LS10.0E more than qualifies, with a 23-pound flywheel that produces a smooth, fluid motion designed to withstand years of use. The trainer also offers a long 20-inch stride length that provides a wider range of motion. Paired with a flat ellipse shape, the stride length encourages a natural walking and running motion for users of all heights. Even the frame itself is designed to create a natural feel. Derived from extensive biomechanics research, the SixStar-certified frame focuses on all areas that impact the feel and comfort of an elliptical, including body positioning, handlebar spacing, elliptical footpath, pedal placement, elliptical access, and the trainer's drive mechanism.
Train Like a Pro
The LS10.0E includes 11 different workout programs to keep you fit, including Manual, Weight Loss, Muscle Toner, Strength Builder, Constant Watts, Mellow Johnny's Trail, Lance's Climb, Lance's Descent, Max Cardio, Custom, and downloadable Livestrong.com programs. The trainer is also equipped with a Power Incline function. With the touch of a button, you can take your workout to the next level with 20 different incline levels. And it's easy to monitor your workout progress thanks to the built-in console, which includes a backlit LCD display and two LED feedback windows that track your time, resistance, incline, distance, speed, and more.

When I first got this several months ago, I was very happy with it, particularly with how quiet it was. I've used several brands of ellipticals and treadmills before, and this was the quietest of them all. I should also note that the difficulty range is higher than most others. With my old Diamondback or the Precor at work, I'm at least 80% up the difficulty scale; with this I'm at something more like 30%, which probably means even the very lowest difficulty wouldn't work for other family members.
I quickly started to notice problems. First the bolt where the arm connects to the pedal just kept coming loose, so I had to become an expert at tightening it. Rust started appearing on the tracks, and I actually am careful about wiping the machine down so there's no excuse for that (never had that problem with another machine). Then it started becoming noisier and noisier. At this point it's barely tolerable even when I'm wearing earphones turned up fairly loud It sounds like the flywheel is wobbly, which probably isn't fatal, but opening the case is practically impossible without special equipment and knowledge of where the internal catches etc. are so I can't be sure. Now I'm trying to find someone local to service it, and that's turning out to be a pain too.
Before I bought this I did some pretty exhaustive research, especially vs. Sole and Smooth which have nearly identical models at nearly identical price points (probably not a coincidence). This machine works, but if I didn't already own it I'd definitely buy one of the others at this point. If you do buy one, get an extended service contract and/or plan ahead for when it needs that service. It will, within a year.

Got It 2 weeks after I ordered it, only took me about an hour to assemble. I have been using it for 3 weeks now and am very satisfied have had no problems at all. Would absolutely recommend this elliptical to any one. I am a big guy (FAT) I weigh 275 or at least did 3 weeks ago and it supports my weight just fine. my wife spends 30-40 min on it every day and she loves it as well. no squeaks, or other noises everything runs smooth,(I did add grease when I assembled the unit to the moving components and shafts.) I also enjoy the online tracking thru livestrong.com all in all i have no complaints at this time.

I received the elliptical within 10 days. It was delivered by a straight truck to my garage. The box was in perfect condition. I unpacked it in the garage and carried it piece by piece to my bedroom. I am a 53 year old woman, so my son had to carry the flywheel upstairs for me, since it was so heavy. I was gonna get him to put it together for me, but he couldn't do it for a few days because of work. So I decided to start on it by myself. I put the whole thing together all by myself! It was pretty easy. The directions were clear and everything needed was included. I love this elliptical! It is fun and a great workout! I'm very happy with my purchase!
