Weight Loss

Octane can help you get results in your quest to lose weight by combining consistent exercise, a nutritious diet and a healthy lifestyle.

  • For optimum weight loss, aim to exercise 3-6 days per week for 30-60 minutes per session.
  • Do total-body cardiovascular workouts whenever possible – such as on an Octane standing or seated elliptical – to burn the most calories and engage the most muscles.
  • Know your heart rate training zone, and exercise within your range to ensure that you don’t under-train or over train. Check out Octane’s HeartLogic Intelligence and variety of interactive heart rate programs that are customized for your training needs.
  • Use interval training, where you alternate longer steady-state intervals with shorter bursts of high-intensity. Try some of Octane’s interval programs, or make up your own simply by periodically changing the resistance and/or pace on the elliptical.
  • Optimize your caloric expenditure with Octane’s CROSS CiRCUIT+, which combines heart-pumping cardio sessions on the elliptical with powerful resistance intervals doing strength-training exercises off the machine.
  • Consult professional resources, such as www.thebestlife.com, which was developed by Bob Greene, Oprah’s trainer and five-time bestselling author, to steer people toward their best life through workouts and a healthy diet.
