Electronically Adjustable Stride with SmartStride
The Q47 Series elliptical cross trainers are equipped with electronically adjustable
stride, providing a custom fit for your body and your workout. Adjustable stride isn’t
just for fine-tuning the workout to your height it custom fits your Octane cross
trainer to your size and style and adds valuable variety.
By pressing the Stride (+/–) buttons on the console or the left moving handlebar,
you can change the stride length from 18” (46 cm) to 26” (66 cm) in ½-inch (1 cm)
increments. This added variety is great to use for different workouts, directions,
warm-ups and cool-downs.
SmartStride
Octane Fitness delivers the most advanced, ergonomically correct and inherently
better elliptical cross training workouts ever with its proprietary SmartStride.
SmartStride automatically replicates natural movement by analyzing and measuring
an exerciser’s pace and direction and intuitively adjusting stride length from 18
inches (46 cm) to 26 inches (66 cm). These interactive ergonomics custom-fit the
cross trainer to the exerciser for effective, comfortable, results-producing workouts
unlike those on any other piece of fitness equipment.
To provide the most effective workouts on a cross trainer, the Octane design team
spent years studying the biomechanics of different types of exercises, analyzing
how the body moves naturally. This research, along with precise gait analysis,
prototype testing and extensive user interviews, shows that stride length naturally
varies according to an individual’s height, leg length, flexibility, speed of travel and
preference for lower or higher intensity motion.
Overall results indicated that:
Walking tends to use shorter strides
Jogging uses medium length strides
Running requires longer strides
Reverse motion shortens the stride length and shifts the torso lower
and backward to increase stability and balance
Stride length preference changes with direction; exercisers prefer
a longer motion for traveling forward and require a shorter motion in
reverse.
In addition, research shows elliptical users tend to hold one pace steady throughout
workouts, a pace that is matched to a fixed stride length. Researchers found that
faster or slower speeds feel unnatural when stride lengths were not adjusted
accordingly.
You will soon find that SmartStride is a valuable and integral component in providing
the most effective workouts available.
