The term "cross trainer" emerged in the mid-1990s as a marketing buzzword to describe a specific type of exercise machine that combines elements of multiple workouts, such as climbing, cycling, and aerobics. The name "cross trainer" is meant to convey the versatility and flexibility of the machine, which allows users to perform a variety of exercises that simulate movements found in outdoor activities like cross-country running, hiking, and skiing. By combining these multi-joint exercises, users can target several major muscle groups simultaneously, making for a more efficient and effective workout. The popularity of cross trainer machines has grown rapidly since their inception, as they offer a low-impact alternative to traditional cardio equipment while still providing a challenging and dynamic workout experience.
