Lateral thinking
for a
Wellness Lifestyle.
Technogym’s aim has always been to research and develop the most innovative and
effective solutions to get people moving, fight obesity and to address the negative
consequences of sedentary lifestyles and unhealthy eating. The pursuit of Wellness as a
lifestyle, combined with the awareness of the needs of the market, have led the Company
to research and to patent a new piece of cardio exercise equipment.
CARDIO WAVE™ is aimed at the lower body with a particular focus on the glutes - the core
stabilizer muscles - and the lower limbs, the efficacy of which has been tested by users,
professional experts and certified University Institutes. The product has had such a groundbreaking effect that it has been hailed as a new milestone in cardiovascular training.
Lateral Movement
is the New Cardio.
40 years ago, the treadmill was created which symbolized the start of cardiovascular
training as we know it. 10 years ago, the elliptical was launched as the ‘ultimate’ in cardio
innovation. And today, Technogym® has created CARDIO WAVE™ – a truly unique piece of
cardiovascular equipment designed to meet the changing needs of today’s market.
CARDIO WAVE™ is a new concept cardio product that has proven to be highly effective on
the glutes, the core stabilizer muscles and the lower limbs providing the perfect answer to
facility members’ specific needs.

With four positions to choose from, Cardio Wave™ guarantees exciting and stimulating
exercises that can be personalized to train specific muscle groups and prevent
boredom. The new Active Wellness TV™ takes entertainment to a higher level: music,
TV and personal entertainment with iPod.
ENJOY MORE PERFORMANCE.
The combination of high calorie expenditure, efficient cardio workout and lower body
strengthening provides an excellent exercise for sports training, particularly those sports
that require lateral movements and are demanding on the legs and knees.
ENJOY MORE BALANCE.
The specific multiplanar tridimensional movement helps achieve better body balance,
agility and co-ordination, reducing the likelihood of falls and enabling an active lifestyle for
all age groups.
ENJOY MORE RESULTS.
The combination of extension, abduction and external rotation is particularly effective on
the glutes, quadriceps and hamstrings, helping to tone and shape the lower body.
Fun, functional and
effective workouts.
Technogym® has developed CARDIO WAVE™ for all types of clients, at all levels of physical
fitness. This revolutionary product ensures high calorie expenditure combined with deep
muscle toning by fully engaging the glutes and lower body muscles. By changing training
position, users can choose the focus of muscle activation to best meet their needs. Training
in Position 4, for example, also improves co-ordination and proprioception.

CARDIO WAVE™ introduces the concept
of MULTIPLANAR CARDIO EXERCISE
involving the glutes, the core stabilizer
muscles and the lower limbs on
three different planes of movement,
combining EXTENSION, ABDUCTION and

Cardio Wave™ employs exclusive and Patent Pending biomechanics to guarantee natural,
effective and safe movements. The new pedal geometry guides foot positioning to ensure
correct ankle, knee and hip movement throughout the complete range of motion, helping
to correct faulty joint mechanics and to restore movement function, to improve balance
and mobility.
EFFECTIVE
The exclusive Patent Pending ERGOSTRIDE
feature ensures correct foot alignment and
posture is maintained during exercise, thereby
optimizing effectiveness.
EASY
The new SERVO-ASSISTED MOVEMENT facilitates
and drives the movement pattern, ensuring
rhythm and coordination are maintained, enabling
a higher pace and calorie expenditure.

Cardio Wave’s
scientific support
MAXIMUM MUSCLE ACTIVATION AND TONING
Cardio Wave™ Lateral Movement – in association with the Ergostride Pedal System - combines abduction,
extension and external rotation movements which ensures for the complete engagement of all gluteal,
core stabilizer and lower limbs muscle groups. Changing the body position while exercising on Cardio
Wave™ varies relative muscle emphasis and provides selective conditioning for more muscles.
MAXIMUM CALORIE EXPENDITURE
Cardio Wave™ reduces the length of the workout because it bridges cardiovascular and muscular
training: by engaging large muscle groups in a dynamic way, it facilitates high oxygen consumption
and caloric expenditure. The new Servo-Assisted Movement enables a higher pace, further increasing
calorie expenditure.
MAXIMUM KNEE SAFETY AND INJURY PREVENTION
Studies show that the forces and torques on the knee are lower on Cardio Wave™ than with other
popular training activities. This means that all user groups can use it safely and effectively. The
unique pedal geometry guides correct ankle, knee and hip movement throughout the complete range
of motion, helping to correct faulty joint mechanics and restore movement function.
The independent scientific research was conducted over a three-year period by university laboratories in
Europe and in the United States to evaluate the effects of Cardio Wave™ training on aerobic conditioning
adaptations, muscle activation, joint forces and torques, oxygen consumption and caloric expenditure.
