In 2009 I bought a Nordictrack elliptical exercise machine, model Audiostrider 990 (PDF link). As home exercise machines go, it's fine. It's uses variable magnetic resistance and it folds up fairly compactly. It also has two front wheels that it can be tilted on them and moved around.

The NordicTrack AudioStrider 990 elliptical offers a wide range of workouts -- 24 in all. Twenty of these programs take you through a variety of resistances to focus on aerobic, weight loss or performance goals. There are two HR (heart rate) programs where the machine increases or decreases resistance automatically to keep you in the Target HR Zone.

At $999, the NordicTrack AudioStrider 990 elliptical needed to hold up to the highly regarded AudioStrider 800, which it manages to do quite well. This is a good choice for a starter cardio machine. 041b061a72
