One of Bill’s customers wanted to let me know about this uniquely designed fitness cycle. It’s called the Cycle 360 Trainer. She just loves it. I was kind of unconvinced but told Bill it sounds like something that might be worth the trip. Bill kept emphasizing there is no toolbox and fussing needed with it. Maybe that’s why he repeatedly told me about the Cycle 360 Trainer.
We both go over the next week and before meeting up with Nancy and Pete I searched online to see for myself that the Cycle 360 Trainer is one-of-a-kind. Pete and Nancy filled me in before I even got the opportunity to hop on it. They began saying that the Cycle 360 Trainer gives you the intensity of running but without the running-related injuries. And that it allows the hip and core to mobilize during training. Nancy went on to say the use of the Cycle works all her joints through a natural range of motion against a continuous strength of applied resistances.
Laying right in the middle of the Cycle 360 Trainer was Pete and Nancy’s obese pet cat. This cat, not only in my opinion, could use every bit of the Cycle 360 Trainer. I realized it was going to be a problem. I had to practically drag her out of the middle of the Cycle to use it. The cat seemed exhausted from me just dragging it out of there.
The first thing I noticed about the Cycle 360 Trainer was that it has a vertical stance with no seat, and this encourages good posture through a neutral spine and pelvic stability. The upstanding ergometer is favorable for all ages. The Cycle will restore any dysfunction, improve life quality and performance, and reduce injuries. It’s low impact on your joints. You won’t’ feel any tension on your lower back due its not having a seat and you are in an upright position.
The cycle 360 trainer includes a multi-gear, magnetic resistance system, making it easier to increase or decrease your workout intensity. What makes the cycle 360 trainer even more unique? It has solid bars on both sides for support, vertical handlebars in front to change positions for upper body movements and push-up dip bar attachment and resistance band hooks for a large variety of upper and lower body exercises.
They have a full video online showing the different positions used to demonstrate how you can get a total workout without risk of injury. The cycle 360 is easy to use and comfortable. It's flexible for all body sizes and types. The design of the cycle allows you to target any sport particularly balance positions that overall will improve body function and conditioning. It works a much bigger section of skeletal muscle. You're moving all your joints to a direct range of motion against a constant force of resistance.
The 360 trainer motivates good posture by keeping the back in a neutral position, giving you a total body workout, and increasing more muscle than any other cycling machine. No seat means no need of adjustments. While I am standing during the workout, I am burning more calories in a shorter amount of time. With the Cycle 360 you are getting cardiovascular training and mobility through a wide variety of exercises without any pain. It's a great way to incorporate HIIT training into your workouts too. It allows for various training intensities and the choice to switch from low to high without pain and injury to the joints. As I reverse the pedal position the change in the direction is targeting different muscle groups in my legs. I am moving all my joints through a natural range of motion. You can actually do push-ups while riding the cycle 360. Training in the transverse will increase your rotational power, core strength, obliques, and balance.
What makes this stand out over the traditional exercise bikes is that it not only works your lower body but also your total body as well. Less stress and pain to your knees, back and glutes. It's designed to correct joint dysfunctions, muscle imbalances, posture, and distortion problems. While pedaling away I felt relaxed and enjoyed myself even though the pet cat tried to move its way back in. With the Cycle 360 it didn’t feel like it was work. I really liked it!

What it comes down to is that the cycle 360 trainer is an intensive workout without risk of injury. I see this being around for quite a long time but not sure about their pet cat. You can take advantage of their full library from your phone, smart TV, or computer. For more information visit www.cycle360trainer.com.
