Elliptical trainers offer a total body low-impact workout that is kinder to your joints than many other forms of exercise because your body weight is supported by the machine. Both the Schwinn 470 and Schwinn 430 feature dual-handlebars so you can choose whether to hold onto the moving handlebars to work your upper body in unison with your lower body or hold onto the static handlebars to isolate your lower body movement.
