Want to lose weight

With Vario you can burn up to 200 calories in 20 minutes because with a single machine you involve all the muscles in your body: from legs to arms and from abdominal to shoulders. Physical activity is intense, but the perception of exertion is minimal because you adapt the motion of the machine to your own pace.

Want full-body training

Vario has two platforms and two interconnected lever-handles that move simultaneously. If you decide to use them together, pressing them as you wish, you'll involve the muscles of your legs in the exercise along with those of the upper half of the body.

Want to prevent or ease joint problems

The movement of Vario is similar to talking a walk, a run, or climbing stairs, but without the striking impact against the ground that is typical of road running. This way you can move and warm your joints without fatigue, preventing injury and future problems.

Want to improve coordination and rhythm

The connection between the pedals and the handles and their simultaneous motion, allows you to involve your arms and legs in a rhythmic movement that helps the upper part of your body to synchronize with the bottom half.

Different from a treadmill or running on the road

Compared with a treadmill or running outdoors there is less impact on the knees and feet because there is no contact with the ground. What's more, treadmills have very specific rules for performing exercises, but with Vario you choose the position and the movement: you can even decide to run backward!

Designed for any height

However tall you are, you'll find your ideal stride without having to adjust it in advance because the equipment is biomechanically designed to be suitable for all users from 4' 5" (140 cm) to 6' 9" (210 cm) and weighing up to 350 lbs (160 kg).

Suitable for rehabilitation

Vario is suitable for use in hospitals, outpatient clinics, sports centers, and rehabilitation facilities as support for treatment and muscular rehabilitation.

What are the three Vario movements like?

Vario is the only cardio machine with platforms that follow different trajectories. That's why you can perform three different movements, both in terms of intensity and the muscles involved:

• Vertical step
  As the name suggests, this is similar to the movement you make climbing and descending stairs. It's a rhythmic stride from high to low and vice versa.
• Elliptical movement
  In this case your legs perform a circular movement similar to a brisk walk (if you have a short stride) or a run (long stride).
• "Vario" movement
  Similar to an athlete's fast run, it's the type of movement that allows you to cover a stride that can extend up to 33" (83 cm.)

How can I change movement?

With Vario, you decide when and whether to change from one movement to another. You can begin with stepping, and then without stopping run faster, shifting to the elliptical, to then reach full stride, and then finish your workout with another step session. Movement develops quickly and isn't tiresome; it even guarantees greater safety because with Vario you start, stop and manage the workout yourself, just as you would when walking on the road.

VISIOWEB FEATURES

• Watch TV: If you're training and want to keep your hands free, you can attach a coax cable from your TV service provider to scan and view available channels.
• Games: During less demanding training sessions, clicking this button provides access to games such as Backgammon and Solitaire.
• Use iPhone or iPod: You can connect your iPod or iPhone to the machine via the special dock on the left hand side. You can charge your only device, or listen to music using the device itself - not the treadmill. VISIOWEB supports all iPhone models from the third generation and all iPod models from the fourth generation (newest updates from Apple required).
