Full-Body Burn with the Precor AMT 885 Open Stride
If you’ve ever wished for a cardio machine that could do everything — walking, jogging, stair climbing, and even running — all without ever stepping off, you’re in for a treat.
Meet the Precor AMT 885 with Open Stride, the machine that adapts to you.
Whether you’re craving a gentle warm-up, a full-body burn, or a HIIT-style sweat fest, this piece of equipment adjusts instantly to your movement.
No buttons. No stopping.
Just pure, smooth, natural motion.
Why the Precor AMT 885 Stands Out
Let’s be honest — most cardio machines have their limits.
Treadmills are great for running, ellipticals are solid for low-impact movement, and stair climbers build serious leg strength.
But what if you could have all those benefits in one workout? That’s the magic of the Precor AMT 885 Open Stride.
Unlike a standard elliptical, the AMT (Adaptive Motion Trainer) allows you to change your stride length on the fly.
You can go from short, quick steps to long, running strides just by adjusting your movement.
Combine that with upper body handles that actually work your arms and core, and you’ve got a machine that gives you a true full-body workout — no treadmill required.
Plus, the Open Stride feature lets you adjust the stride height, so you can simulate stair climbing one minute and running the next.
It’s like having a treadmill, elliptical, and stepper all rolled into one powerhouse of a machine.
Your 20-Minute Full-Body AMT 885 Workout Plan
Ready to see what the AMT 885 can do? Here’s a simple yet powerful 20-minute routine that hits your legs, arms, and core — all while torching calories.
| Time | Stride Style | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 0–3 min | Easy walking stride | Warm-up, get into rhythm |
| 3–6 min | Mid-length stride | Light jog, engage arms |
| 6–9 min | Long stride | Running pace, full-body drive |
| 9–11 min | Short, high stride | Stair-climbing focus — quads and glutes |
| 11–13 min | Long stride | Back to running, steady effort |
| 13–15 min | Variable stride | Mix up your motion, challenge coordination |
| 15–17 min | Short, fast stride | Power steps for endurance |
| 17–20 min | Gentle walking stride | Cool down, deep breaths |
This session not only boosts endurance but also builds leg and core strength while improving coordination.
The constant change in stride keeps your body guessing — and that’s what keeps results coming.
Form Tips for Maximum Results
One of the coolest things about the Precor AMT 885 Open Stride is how naturally it moves with you. But to get the most from your workout, pay attention to your form:
-
Stay upright – Keep your core engaged and shoulders relaxed.
-
Use the handles – Don’t just hold them; push and pull to activate your upper body.
-
Vary your stride – Don’t stick to one movement pattern. The magic happens when you change it up.
-
Breathe with rhythm – Match your breathing to your stride for a smoother workout flow.
When you start combining stride variations with resistance levels, you’ll realize just how versatile this machine truly is.
