LOWER-BODY MOVEMENT PERFECTED
Anyone who has used an elliptical cross trainer knows that each
brand is distinctive in its motion, feel and fit to an exerciser’s body.
The lower-body motion plays an enormous role in how the elliptical feels
overall, which impacts one’s motivation, usage and, ultimately, results.
Precision engineering in critical biomechanical elements such as
pedal spacing, inertia and pedal articulation delivers Octane’s exclusive
Body-Mapping Ergonomics for lower-body motion that is inherently smooth,
fluid and natural—just like walking, jogging and running.
Even more, Octane has risen above and beyond with the patent-pending
18" Stride Length
SmartStride interactive ergonomics on its Q45 Series that automatically
replicates natural movements by monitoring your pace and direction and
intelligently adjusting stride length accordingly. Plus, you can emphasize
specific muscle groups with different stride lengths and directions—

RAISING THE BAR ON UPPER-BODY MOTION
Until Octane emerged, upper-body movement on ellipticals
CONVERGING ARMS
seemed a bit of an afterthought among most brands, forcing
the arms into a rigid, straight, back-and-forth route. But today,
Octane has changed the landscape of upper-body motion for
more comfortable and productive exercise.
Unlike anything available today, the new Converging Path
handlebars on Octane’s Q37 Series mimic the natural path of
the upper body by moving inward as you press forward, just
as you swing your arms toward the midline of the body when
walking or running. On the backswing, the handlebars
comfortably open up by the same amount, again
replicating natural movement.
In addition to feeling incredibly natural, Converging Path
handlebars keep the shoulders, elbows and wrists in neutral,
safe positions to minimize repetitive stress that can
potentially aggravate an existing injury or create a new one.
Exercisers also can enjoy a longer range of motion for greater
muscle involvement and more effective upper-body use.

Designed according to biomechanical research
and similar to converging paths of motion on
premium strength training machines, Octane’s
Converging Path handlebars—only on the Q37
Series—are blazing a new trail in ergonomic
excellence. Converging Path handlebars replicate
the natural path of the upper body when striding
by moving inward as you press forward, identical
to how you swing your arms toward the center
of the body. On the backswing, the handlebars
comfortably open up by the same amount,
like you do naturally.

Based on Octane's original elliptical cross trainer, this proven
winner is backed by multiple awards and testimonials. Recognized
as an innovative, high performance cross trainer, this machine was
the first to incorporate Body-Mapping Ergonomics and the QuadLink drive for
smooth, natural motion that is supremely comfortable. Plus, it is built with a
wealth of superior features at an unbeatable value.
QuadLink Drive
OPTIMIZED CROSS TRAINING
The moment you step on an
Octane Fitness elliptical, you instantly
recognize the difference. After all,
the key element in ellipticals is their
motion, and if it is not comfortable,
you aren't likely to use it.
In its bold quest to perfect cross
trainers, Octane has dedicated
exhaustive research and meticulous
design to carefully craft the most
biomechanically correct movement
that feels absolutely natural.
The result of precise engineering is
the patented QuadLink drive, which,
in conjunction with Octane’s exclusive Body-Mapping Ergonomics, creates supremely
comfortable, fluid motion that not only is safe and effective, but that actually
inspires you to exercise.
The front-drive design offers rock-solid stability, a space-efficient footprint, quiet
operation and extra safety with all moving parts enclosed.
