Cross Trainer good for winter fitness?

[Banjo]

I am thinking of buying a cross trainer for winter use. Good idea or not?

Anything is better than nothing

cross trainers are excellent anytime full body workout....you can position your body different ways to focus on particular muscle groups..i would advise getting one with largest stride length possible at least 18 inches...i dont own one but use the one in the gym all the time

I used one to get my muscles up to the point that I could start exercising again. It was very good for getting a sweat on.

No I was right the first time. I often am.

Just accept nicely that you are being educated about something you know nothing about.

Kickbikes are something that has not hit the UK yet. But everywhere else they are really taking off.

A cross trainer? Get out of here :0)

it's a big scooter

Montage is absolutely right. You can call it a 'kick bike' if you like. Everyone else will call it a scooter.

I don't what what you are all looking at, all I see is a comedy contraption.

That is a scooter.

They even say so themselves

n 1994, I founded the Kickbike Worldwide company. Prototypes of new type scooters and kicksleds – that I decided to call Kickbikes and Kicksparks simply created so much interest that there was a need for it.

Multiple times

The Kickbike scooter and the Kickspark kicksled are both our original innovations

both summer (scooters) and winter (kicksleds) use

best regards, Hannu Vierikko,
developer of the Kickbike scooters

Kick bike looks good fun but cant be used in a nice warm spare room like the cross trainer

Thanks for all the replies.

Although I am actually not sure why a scooter would be more suitable for all weather use than a regular bike?
