Elliptical

Stand tall on the pedals. A light grip on the moving handles, or on the fixed rails.

Elliptical
  1. 1Let the whole foot ride the pedal. Don't stay up on the toes.
  2. 2The torso stays quiet. The legs and arms do the work.
  3. 3Push and pull evenly. Don't lean your weight on the console.

Easy to miss: Locking the knees, or hanging off the handles so the legs barely work.

Muscles

Copper on the figure is a prime mover. The softer tone helps.
