Represent the dialog for retrieving similar scenarios Speaker3: Hello everyone! I’m thinking about buying a cross trainer. Does anyone of you have any experience in using it at home? Could you maybe recommend me something?
Speaker1: Hi Speaker3! I bought my first cross trainer a couple of years ago and I have been using one ever since. The type of the machine greatly depends on your built and how much many you would like to spend.
Speaker3: My budget is quite limited as is the space in my living room…
Speaker5: I’d advise you to first measure the room to know how big the machine can actually be for you to exercise comfortably and effectively.
Speaker4: Waste of money, most expensive cloth hanger
Speaker3: Hahaha, I hope it won’t be in my case. I’m quite determined to lose some weight. I’m tall and a bit overweight, so I worry that I may break the machine
Speaker1: Don’t worry about that. It shouldn’t be a problem, but have a look at the specs just in case.
Speaker5: When it comes to the price, cheaper models don’t have as many electronic options as the more expensive do, but I’d advise you to invest in it if you’re being serious about losing weight.
Speaker3: Why’s that?
Speaker5: You can always exercise with your phone and an app, but it’s not the most comfortable way (tried it myself). It’s good to have at least three preinstalled programmes like weight-loss, interval, etc. Then the machine will think for you.
Speaker1: My first cross trainer didn’t have such options and I must admit that I was also training with my phone and keeping my times. Now, when the old broke, I bought a “fancier” model and I definitely don’t regret it
Speaker3: Do you have any company you can recommend? Or a specific model?
Speaker2: I have OBE8731 Powerstride 18" Rear Drive and I think it’s ok.
Speaker1: I think that in case of cross trainer it really goes down to the price range. You won’t be able to buy a really good equipment cheaply.
Speaker5: I agree, especially if you’re determined and interested in your scores. It may sound silly, but I think tracking your progress helps to lose weight.
Speaker3: Thank you so much for your advice! I can’t spend too much, but I don’t want to throw my money away on something that won’t serve me…
Speaker1: Sure, again, in my opinion it is a thing worth investing in. Look up some tutorials and exercise plans in Google, it will also help you out to achieve your goal.
Speaker5: Good luck!
