Life Fitness X3 Cross-Trainer

The Life Fitness X3 Cross-Trainer is a midlevel elliptical which can be found in smaller gyms, or in home gyms where quality is more important than price. Like most gym quality elliptical trainers, this unit is quiet, and built to sustain quite a bit of use and abuse. Reviews noted that even at the high price it did not come with extra accesories such as heart rate monitors. These could however be purchased for an extra fee. Reviewers noted that it is simplistic in design which can be both a pro and a con. It requires quite a bit of room to operate, which many users considered a negative.
