Gazelle Supra Review

Review of the Gazelle Supra Glider Workout Machine

You've seen it on TV, You've heard about it on the radio, you've see the ads in your favorite magazine, now you too can own the most amazing and fun workout machine ever.

I know the hype and such can sometimes get to you on those TV infomercials. I had seen the one for I don't remember how long and thought it couldn't match some of those workout machines at the gym. For the price of the Gazelle Supra, you get a very good machine for a reasonable price.

I was looking for something I could get an aerobic workout on that could be used during the winter. I walk and bike outdoors during the summer but I had been getting lazy in the off season and it is getting harder and harder to get back into the swing of exercise after not doing any for a few months.

So I went strolling through the cyber world looking for an affordable yet decent machine. I was in the military and had access to all kinds of equipment at the gym. I used exercise bikes and ellipticals and rowing machines and knew how to use all the basic kinds of exercise equipment.

I wanted something I could do a little stretching out before and then jump on and get a decent workout for a half hour or so a day. I spent a few days searching and could not find much of anything for less than five hundred dollars that looked like it would stand up to a routine exercise program and last more than a year.

I wanted to buy a bike or something for indoors that would be nice to use but last for more than one winter. I had seen the ads and thought I would look into it. Fitness quest sells a few different models of the Gazelle. They have some cheaper models around a hundred and the Supra Pro for $250 at Sears.

I went to my local sears and they had a Gazelle Supra model for $199. I tried out the floor model they had and liked it. The two frame pieces are made of 2 and a quarter inch diameter steel tubing, which seemed sturdy. There is two pistons near the top that connect for added resistance and two handles to hold on to and use for an upper body workout. The feet platforms swing up and the whole thing folds for storage.
