Precor's award-winning AMT allows users to instantly change their stride, speed and direction naturally, without manual adjustment. This user-defined adaptive motion means no two workouts are the same, constantly presenting users with new challenges.

The AMT's zero-impact makes it suitable for all gym users. New user surveys show 97 per cent of people who've tried it say they enjoyed exercising on it, while 45 per cent say it's become their favourite piece of kit.

Users can follow a course of set routines specifically designed to improve fitness levels, burn fat, tone or work towards a set goal - eg ski fitness. Alternatively, they can let their imagination and inclination set the pace and style of their session.

The AMT's instant change versatility also makes it perfect for fast-paced, engaging group classes combining fat-burning, body conditioning and increasing CV capacity.

Independent research shows the AMT elicits higher oxygen consumption and calorie expenditure compared to many other cardio fitness trainers. This translates into a more intensive and challenging workout, producing faster results and improving cardio-respiratory fitness.
