Torch more calories and enhance muscle definition with one machine. The Teeter Power10 Elliptical Rower’s bi-directional elliptical path lets you engage different muscles on the push and pull to strengthen and define the entire body like no other machine.

The Power10 offers two directions for optimal muscle sculpting. First, engage and strengthen your back, biceps, delts, forearms, quads, and calves with a traditional rowing motion. Then, the patented elliptical path (the push motion) lets you switch direction mid-workout to build your chest, triceps, hamstrings, glutes, and abs.

The Teeter Power10 Elliptical Rower strengthens every major muscle group on the body’s front and back, with continual core strengthening throughout the workout. Alternating muscle groups let you maintain intensity and increase calorie burn every workout. In addition, your muscle exertion is distributed throughout the entire body so that you can push yourself farther and harder with less muscle fatigue.

The Power10 features variable magnetic resistance adjustable on the fly to increase resistance for total muscle burn or lower resistance to build endurance. In addition, magnetic resistance ensures virtually silent operation and no friction or touching parts, which means long-lasting performance with little-to-no maintenance.
