The heavy duty Life Fitness E1 Go Elliptical Cross-Trainer is a top contender in the higher end home elliptical machines. This model can be used in your home gym and for fitness enthusiasts of any skill level who want a low impact workout. What sets this off from other brands is that it is manufactured by Life Fitness, the same company that makes commercial grade gym ellipticals. The fit and finish is excellent when compared to lower priced ellipticals.

We tested this elliptical, and it was the quietest elliptical we have used. The reason is the Whisper Stride technology that uses maintenance-free ball bearings. This can eliminate the noise and friction that you can hear and feel with other cross-trainers. It is a heavy duty machine, capable of handling user weight up to 400 pounds. The E1 Go Elliptical Trainer provides an effective cardiovascular workout by combining upper and lower body flexibility and coordination into one impact-free motion and is easier on your joints. Regular use on elliptical trainers will increase heart and lung capacity while improving your health and burning calories. The E1 Go uses 20 levels of Magnetic Brake resistance using an eddy current brake (the best type). Magnetic resistance has the advantage of no friction, reliability, little to no maintenance costs, and quiet operation.
