The Zero Runner ZR7 is a unique cardio trainer built in the USA by Octane Fitness. It gets its name for what it lets people do: run with zero harsh impact! Additionally, ZR7 supports walking, jogging, and simulated climbing. Furthermore, its elliptical footpath naturally adjusts to match the user’s gait up to 58″.
This machine suspends the entire body for all exercise types to allow efficient cardio training and calorie burn without straining sore joints, muscles, or connective tissues. Its combination of stride versatility and zero impact makes the Zero Runner ZR7 a popular alternative to elliptical trainers, stair climbers, and treadmills.
The Zero Runner ZR7 in this review, unlike the ZR8, does not have moveable armbars. Instead, it’s sold with optional cross-training equipment for upper body exercise and gives access to cross-training workouts as well as regular lower body workouts. The digital training platform SmartLink delivers these workouts.
