StreetStrider to be Featured on NBC's "The Biggest Loser"

Oct. 30, 2009 - PRLog -- Carson City, Nevada -- The 2010 StreetStrider ETX Biggest Loser edition, an outdoor mobile elliptical cross trainer with a proven high calorie burn rate, will soon be featured on NBC's hit reality show "The Biggest Loser."

The series "The Biggest Loser" features 16 to 22 overweight participants on a competitive journey to lose weight, transform their health and fix unhealthy lifestyle habits with the help of two celebrity fitness trainers and a team of health professionals. Each contestant faces challenges, temptations, weigh-ins and eliminations throughout the series with the final contestant winning a grand prize of $250,000 and claiming the title of "The Biggest Loser."

For over two seasons contestants on "The Biggest Loser" beta tested the StreetStrider behind the scenes to make certain that the final product met the needs of a wide range of consumers. The result is a perfect tool for both those starting a weight-loss and exercise program and athletes hoping to gain a whole body cardiovascular workout in an effective time frame.

Dr. David Kraus, original inventor of the StreetStrider product said:
"Working with the BL contestants has been invaluable for the development of the StreetStrider. Shortly after arriving on the BL Ranch, my team and I recognized how committed the BL contestants were to their life-transforming journey, striving daily to achieve their calorie burn and weight loss goals.

"We believed that the benefits of exercising with the StreetStrider would be ideal for these contestants because this exercise would allow them to maximize their calorie burn rates while minimizing the stress often associated with many rigorous outdoor activities.

"As we worked with the contestants to provide an exhilarating daily exercise experience, they helped us fine tune the ergonomic features of the StreetStrider to make it both user friendly while also robust and durable. This was a great experience with some the best beta testers we could have hoped for."

The 2010 StreetStrider ETX Biggest Loser edition provides users with fun outdoor recreation, a fitness solution beyond the gym, a weight loss tool and a low impact way to exercise during physical therapy and rehabilitation. Many people routinely experience calorie burn rates as high as 900-1,200 calories per hour while using the StreetStrider.

Additionally, the StreetStrider mobile elliptical cross trainer offers a fun whole body workout that allows the consumer an effective way to obtain an intense workout without experiencing the exhaustion of specific muscle groups that other types of exercise produce and without spending hours inside a gym.

The 2010 StreetStrider ETX Biggest Loser edition is available for sale in retail locations worldwide and online at the product's website. An online community for support, customer testimonials and case studies is also available on the website to further demonstrate the positive health effects of the 2010 StreetStrider ETX Biggest Loser edition.
