The KRANKcycle builds both CV performance and strength, as well as developing the core, while giving the legs a chance to rest. Regular use improves posture and corrects rounded shoulders, as well as increasing metabolism.
Because of its seated position, it's suitable for most gym users. As well as toning and balancing the upper body, it's been proven to burn as many - if not more - calories as similar exercises that use the legs.
The KRANKcycle can be used on its own, in conjunction with a lower-body piece of equipment, or in a POWER Kranking exercise class - a comprehensive workout that uses all training intensities and combines intervals of maximum effort with limited recovery to peak heart rates and produce high-calorific burns.
As well as the obvious two-handed position, the KRANKcycle can also be used with one arm only or cranked backwards, and can be used sitting or standing - either on one leg or two, or with the legs bent at different angles to increase intensity.
