Precor AMT - Adaptive Motion Trainer

The Precor AMT (short for Adaptive Motion Trainer) is an incredibly versatile unit that combines multiple cardio benefits into one machine. It allows users to run, jog, walk, and climb, adapting to their stride length on the fly. This makes it suitable for a wide range of members and fitness needs.  Many exercise enthusiasts confuse the AMT model with an elliptical machine but they are definitely different!

People expect a personalized workout experience that is tailored to their unique needs and preferences. The Precor AMT is ideally suited to this purpose, with innovative technology that enables it to respond to the person using it. The Adaptive Motion Trainer intuitively adjusts its motion based on the stride length of the user. This can vary from zero to 36 inches (91cm), accommodating a wide range of user heights and training preferences. The AMT 885 and 835 models also feature patented Open Stride technology. This enables users to adjust the stride height as well as the length, from 6.8 to 10 inches (17 to 25cm).  The customizable and adjustable stride length  means no two workouts are ever the same, so there’s no chance of getting bored with this piece of equipment.

The Precor AMT delivers a highly effective, low impact, dual action total body workout that torches calories like no other. Whether your members want to lose weight, improve their cardio fitness, or perform high intensity interval training (HIIT), the AMT offers it all with heart rate monitoring. The moving arms and variable stride combine to deliver an all-over workout, yet with minimal joint impact on each resistance level. This makes it the ideal total body cardio for users who aren’t able to run on treadmills due to joint injuries.

The Adaptive Motion Trainer also features the smooth, fluid motion that’s a hallmark of Precor equipment. Their design philosophy is centered around user experience and biomechanics, so their products are always enjoyable to use and anatomically accurate.
