Technogym Excite® - Vario Self Adaptive Stride Elliptical

No Impact Movement - The non-impact, intuitive movement on VARIO supports a safer and more effective training experience for any user.

Variable Stride - Vario provides a unique cardiovascular workout by offering the user the opportunity to determine the movement and stride length; from a vertical step to a simple walk to a long stride with the feel & freedom of running.

Natural and Personalised Movement - VARIO is able to adapt the stride dynamically and automatically in relation to the user’s preference and height. The resulting fluid and natural movement also delivers a wide stride length from 0 - 83 cm (32.7 in) and the biomechanical design ensures minimum ‘bouncing’ in the movement for a more comfortable workout.

Enjoyable and Familiar Exersite - A study investigating the enjoyment and natural movement perceived during short bouts of exercise on a treadmill, an elliptical cross trainer and VARIO showed that a VARIO workout is perceived to be as enjoyable and natural as walking and running.

Total Body or Lower Body Training - VARIO allows you to select a total body workout that incorporates upper body engagement along with lower body capabilities. Alternatively, a great lower body-only workout is available by holding the central handle bars or the lateral supports.

Optimal Training Effect - VARIO’s biomechanical design optimises user posture and movement trajectories to provide an effective, results-oriented workout. Tests demonstrate that calorie expenditure remains highest in its category while perceived effort is reduced compared to traditional elliptical machines.

Maximum Accessibility - The reduced height of the pedals from the ground and fixed lateral supports for the hands make Vario easy and safe to use, even for beginners. Getting started on Vari o is extremely easy with the Self Starting System (patent pending) device developed by Technogym.
