The Horizon Fitness ex 68 elliptical trainer features a long 20” stride length which is ideal for tall users or anyone who wants to push the limits of their stride to get the best possible workout. The 17.6 lb flywheel delivers a quiet and smooth ride, which is quite impressive at this price. The Horizon EX68 elliptical is also built using a magnetic break which contributes to how quiet it is as well as how consistent the resistance feels.

With 20 resistance levels and 11 pre-programmed workouts the Horizon Fitness ex68 elliptical maximizes your workout to help you reach your goals fast. The built-in speakers and MP3 input lets you create the perfect workout playlist to keep you moving.
