What is the difference between front flywheel and rear flywheel?




1: The front flywheel has high stability and smooth operation; Small distance between feet, better mute effect! The exercise experience is more comfortable and easy to adhere to for a long time;


Second: The rear flywheel size is large, the price is relatively cheap, the disadvantage is that the step is wide, the elliptical stride is small, the smoothness and the sense of sports experience is poor! (It belongs to the old model and is now obsolete on the market)


1. Differences in machine structure


Home front: the flywheel is in front, there is a slide rail (the overall mechanical extension space is longer, and the stride length is larger), and the entire force point is a stable triangular structure, similar to the movement of people pushing the front wheel. The focus of the structural design is to extend the crankshaft of the flywheel and provide a quiet and reliable slide for the extended crankshaft. (Recommended German Liat brand)


Home rear: the flywheel is directly hung on the flywheel without slide at the back (short mechanical extension space, small stride), similar to the movement of people pulling the rear wheel. Belongs to the obsolete style, not recommended!!


2. Differences in use experience


Home front: Better stability, most of the configuration is higher (can withstand the use of more general weight), the use of high smoothness, larger stride, the pace is open (especially for people above 175cm), the pedal spacing is smaller (more ergonomic design), intelligent control is better (most of the high-end elliptical machine is a front flywheel structure, recommend the German Liart brand, Put more thought into intelligent control design)


Home post: Most of them are concentrated in the price below 3000 yuan, stability, configuration, movement fluency, etc. is not as good as the front flywheel, of course, if the height is not too high, the weight is not too heavy, the sports experience is not particularly high, simple fat reduction, the post use is barely available.


3. Difference in floor space


Home front: large volume, longer, higher and more comfortable, long-term exercise without fatigue, (just like the feeling of riding a luxury car)


Home rear: small size, suitable for small apartment purchase (just like you feel on a bicycle)


4. Focus on the difference


Front flywheel: according to the step distance adjustment, choose your own stride, more uniform force, every step, there is a down-to-earth feeling, the step is open, the force is comfortable and uniform, and the hunchback will not be explored!


Rear flywheel: a certain critical point to add a little force, the inertia is larger, the operation is not uniform, the strength is not perfect symmetry, some people with high exercise intensity, the use of low configuration of the rear flywheel elliptical machine, will have a feeling of lightness, people who are too tall (170-180cm or more), will feel the use of lame, stretch not open.


5. The difference in exercise effect


Home pre: exercise intensity can be large or small, whole body exercise, waist fat reduction, muscle building, local shaping can be achieved;


Home rear: some low-configuration mini rear elliptical machine, stride length, flywheel weight, machine structure will be limited, for large people, and can not let the whole body participate in the exercise well, there are certain limitations, the exercise effect is unsatisfactory, try to choose between 6000-9000 yuan, better.


Three, the advantages and disadvantages of the elliptical machine front and back flywheel


Home front: covers a large area, large stride, better stability, more balanced force, more smooth movement, pedal spacing is small, the production process is more complex, the appearance is more fashionable, the price is higher, the need to often maintain a slide rail, do not have foreign bodies stuck.


Home rear: small footprint, slightly smaller stride, a bit bumpy, pedal spacing is large, affordable, does not require too much maintenance.


Four: How to judge whether to buy front or back


Most people: If the budget is sufficient, it is more recommended to front flywheel elliptical machine (Germany Liart brand is recommended here, because this brand machine has adjustable step distance technology protection, suitable for people of different heights in the whole family, are very fit and comfortable)


Tall people: more than 175cm, try to choose the front flywheel, the stride is larger, the pace is open.


People with very heavy weight: more than 170 pounds, try to choose the front flywheel, but also pay attention to the bearing range (bear some major good)
