Cybex Arc Trainer - Fitness Equipment


Is the Cybex Arc Trainer an effective cardio machine?

Nov 08, 2006 by ultra _ girl | Posted in Diet & Fitness

I use the Cybex Arc Trainer at my gym. I put the incline at 10 and the resistance at 100. These are the maximum settings. In 30 minutes I am able to burn 500 calories with minimum effort and I dont sweat. On the other hand, when I run on a treadmill, I sweat more and burn less calories. Does the Cybex provide a good lower-body workout?

I am assuming that the "500 calories" you said you are burning are based on what the machine displays. This may not always be the most accurate assessment. I would pay more attention to your heart rate, which will be a better indicator of whether you are in your aerobic fat-burning zone or not. This can be ROUGHLY calculated by 220 minus your age (your predicted max heart rate) multiplied by the workout intensity (usually a pretty tough workout is 75% to 80%.) eg. if you are 30 years old, 220 - 30 = 190 x .75 = 142 heart rate. Keeping your heart rate in this age will burn fat and, of course calories.

Do any gyms in Chicago have Cybex arc trainers?

Aug 24, 2010 by Cage | Posted in Chicago

I'm wondering if any public gyms have this piece of equipment because I have heard that it is a very efficient calorie burning piece of equipment. If you are not sure what one is, here is a link of a picture of one:http://www.boston.com/business/ticker/20 09/02/cybex_debuts_an.html

The HITT program focuses on developing specific strength and cardio gains for optimum combat mission performance, injury reduction, post-combat physical recovery and readiness. Instead of stationary bikes, treadmills and traditional selectorized strength-training machines, HITT participants use kettle bells, power racks, training ropes, sprint lanes and other non-traditional, strength-enhancing gear, and, of course, Cybex fitness equipment.

“The Arc Trainer is unique in that it enables incredibly high-intensity interval training, up to 900 Watts – more than double the output achievable on other technologies – with incline and onboard programming that takes the most fit Marine to even higher performance levels,” says Ryan Massimo, Marine Corps Combat Fitness Program Manager.

Adds Lt. Gen. Ron Coleman: “The machine scales the resistance based on the weight entry of the user. A Marine can enter his weight at 100 pounds heavier than actual, to account for combat body armor, ammunition, helmet and weapon, and the Arc Trainer will load resistance based on this weight,” he explains. “In addition, the Arc Trainer automatically drops the resistance to match the capability of the Marine, which allows high-intensity training to occur safely.”
