About Tony Little Gazelle Workout Program

Tony Little is a former body-building champion who developed a workout program focused on a piece of exercise equipment called the Gazelle. Little's program was initially designed to help him recover and get back in shape after a car accident nearly claimed his life.

Identification

• The Gazelle provides a low-impact workout customized for individual training needs and fitness goals. The machine combines elliptical training with cross-country ski training. It is operated with the legs and arms swinging back and forth and allows the user to work different body parts during a cardiovascular workout.

Benefits

• The Gazelle workout system is designed to strengthen muscles and help the user lose weight. All of the body's primary muscles in the shoulders, chest, back, arms, legs and abdominal region benefit from a Gazelle workout. The low-impact nature of the workout protects against aggravation of existing conditions, such as knee problems.

Considerations

• The Gazelle comes with a set of DVDs that describe the workouts that can be performed. The Tony Little program includes dietary advice and online support. The unit comes in the basic Gazelle Edge model or in the more advanced Gazelle Freestyle model.
