Abstract

An elliptical trainer has a base, two sliding assemblies, a slope adjusting mechanism, and two stride adjusting mechanisms. A transverse diameter of an elliptical path that a user exercises along can be adjusted by driving the slope adjusting mechanism, so as to adjust each stride of the user. A slope of the elliptical path can also be adjusted by driving the stride adjusting mechanisms, so as to provide climbing exercise effects. The elliptical trainer can be easily adjusted to form different exercise modes and intensities. The user's desire for exercising on the elliptical trainer can be increased accordingly.
