• Air walkers, also known as air gliders, are exercise machines that provide a great way to get a full-body, calorie-burning, low-impact aerobic workout at home.
• Though they might look a little unorthodox, air walkers offer an easy method for keeping fit, even if you only have 10 to 15 minutes a day for exercise.
• Our top pick, the Sunny Health & Fitness Air Walk Trainer , isn't just the best overall but also our favorite budget model as it delivers smooth movement while also being easy to assemble and compact.

When someone first gave me an air walker for my home gym , I tried it and wondered, how in the world is this exercise? All I'm doing is swinging my feet. After about 10 minutes of nonstop striding, however, I broke a sweat and realized that continuing for another 10 to 20 minutes at a brisk clip would constitute a decent full-body aerobic workout .

Air walkers — especially those with built-in resistance — provide low-impact exercise for your leg, arm, and abdominal muscles. Think of it as an elliptical trainer's low-tech, less glamorous, space- and money-saving cousin.

On an air walker, you keep your legs mostly straight as you move them back and forth (or even side to side on some models) as opposed to bending and straightening them like on an elliptical. Also, air gliders are smaller and more economical, making them convenient and portable pieces of home exercise equipment that don't need electricity to function properly.

To find those worth owning, we've tested air walkers from brands like Gazelle and Sunny Health & Fitness, each of which offered its own unique take on the tried-and-true design. No matter if you want a basic model, something to use outside, or one that comes standard with a variety of workouts (who doesn't want to work out with Tony Little?), the following guide has you covered. 

We've also included some tips on how to shop for an air walker and some insight into the air walker workout , at the end of this guide. As with any health and exercise product, follow the instructions, and practice safe use. If you have any health-related concerns, consult a medical professional before using them.

Here are the best air walkers: 

• Best air walker overall: Sunny Health & Fitness Air Walk Trainer
• Best basic air walker: Gazelle Edge
• Best outdoor air walker: Stamina Outdoor Fitness Strider
• Best deluxe air walker: Gazelle Supreme

Best overall

The Sunny Health & Fitness Air Walk Trainer is not only top-rated, but it's also the best-priced model for striding your way to cardiorespiratory fitness.

Pros: Smooth operation, compact body, easy assembly, great price

Cons: Only moderately intensive, no resistance, flimsy for some

Believe it or not, the Sunny Health & Fitness Air Walk Trainer is also the lowest priced model on our list of top picks. Use this budget-friendly yet high-performing equipment to tone your muscles and get a full-body, low-impact cardio-aerobic workout. In addition to exercising your legs and arms, this model works your abdominal muscles as you maintain an upright posture while gliding.

Unlike most air walker models, the Sunny Health & Fitness Air Walker Trainer has a vertically adjustable abdominal pad for support and comfort. The pad is able to be removed for more room, allowing you to instead use your abdominals even more for stability and endurance. 

It has a sturdy steel frame, oversized nonslip footpads/pedals , and an LCD monitor that conveniently displays workout information like time, count, total distance, and calories burned. People weighing up to 225 pounds can stretch their calf-, thigh- and gluteal muscles with the 30-inch stride length.

When not being used, the space-saving Sunny Health & Fitness Air Walk Trainer folds down to half its open length (from 29 inches to 15 inches) for a small footprint and easy storage.

This walker offers a smooth, quiet operation, and allows you to start off in a slow walk to warm up before progressing to a faster run — all in one continuous movement. Made for all ages, this model is popular with former runners and people up to their 80s because it's gentle on the ankles, knees, and back.

Best basic air walker

For people who want a no-frills yet effective air walker, the Gazelle Edge is the way to go — dependable, glides smoothly, and provides a good workout.

Pros: Smooth, stable, and durable

Cons: No resistance, squeaks

Although less fancy than the high-end Gazelle Supreme , the Gazelle Edge still does the job. It delivers a cardio-aerobic, total-body workout that burns calories and tones muscles while being easy on the joints — not to mention, fun. This basic model doesn't have any resistance, but it does have a patented, dual-action split suspension that provides a complete range of motion and smooth, fluid movement.

The Gazelle Edge is great for people new to gliders and walkers, yet still accommodates more challenging exercises. It allows users to increase intensity as they please and can handle both interval training workouts and power sprint routines. 

As an owner of a Gazelle Edge owner, I like that it's able to accommodate both quick and light workouts, as well as intense cardio burning sessions. During my time with the Edge, the machine developed a bit of a squeak, however, a little WD-40 helped it get back to gliding along quietly. 

The Gazelle Edge has a durable 1.5-inch rolled steel frame, foam-covered handlebars, extra-wide non-skid foot platforms, and a computer that tracks speed, distance, time, and calories burned. It has a maximum weight capacity of 250 pounds (the more heavy-duty, slightly more expensive model with a maximum weight capacity of 300 pounds is the Gazelle Freestyle ). And, this walker folds up for storage.

Best for outdoors

Enjoy a breath of fresh air while exercising alfresco on the durable and smooth Stamina Outdoor Fitness Strider .

Pros: Provides freedom and motivation to exercise outdoors, sturdy, smooth

Cons: No resistance, screws can develop rust

I first tried an outdoor walker in a nearby park, thinking it was a just playground ride. As corny as this sounds, I found myself meditatively gliding while gazing toward a lake and listening to sounds of nature — and then felt the burn when I climbed off after about 10 minutes. So. the Stamina Outdoor Fitness Strider isn't merely a playground toy but a bona fide piece of exercise equipment that delivers a great low-impact, cardio-aerobic workout.

Designed to be set up and used outside, the Stamina Outdoor Fitness Strider has a large, heavy-gauge steel frame covered with a durable paint that protects it from UV rays and resists rust, chipping, and corrosion in non-salt water environments.

The stable Stamina Outdoor Fitness Strider glides smoothly. It has dual-action handlebars so you can tone and strengthen your upper and lower body simultaneously; it also has stationary handgrips to hold while focusing on the lower body only. Its frame is contoured for comfort and it has large textured pedals for different foot sizes. This sturdy 109-pound walker can accommodate users weighing up to 300 pounds and is easy to assemble.

One of the Stamina Outdoor Fitness Strider 's best features is the option of exercising outdoors. In fact, mixing up the routine and going outside for fresh air provide more motivation for working out. The paint's vibrant green color fits in well with the outdoors, too.

Although this strider doesn't have any built-in resistance, you can increase its intensity by varying your foot position. 

Best deluxe air walker

The Gazelle Supreme is a well-known, top-of-the-line air walker with hydraulic resistance, versatility, and advanced technology.

Pros: Stable, intense workout with pistons/resistance

Cons: Squeaky, assembly instructions a bit confusing for some

Many people have become familiar with air walkers because of the man in the photo above: Fitness trainer Tony Little. You'd see him pitch Gazelle gliders on TV infomercials in the odd hours. While as-seen-on-TV products tend to be gimmicky, the Gazelle has stood the test of time — and is still going strong.

The most deluxe model in the current Gazelle lineup, the Gazelle Supreme , has many features that enhance workouts. It features hydraulic resistance pistons, a patented dual pivot system for a large range of motion and independent movement of the legs, and Soft Glide technology which makes striding smooth and reduces the impact on joints.

It also has grip pulse monitors and a computer that tracks your heart rate, calories burned, distance, time, and speed, to keep you informed of your progress. This model even comes with three workout DVDs ("Total Body Workout," "Tony Little's Quick Shape Workout," and "Tony Little's Ultimate Body & Mind Workout") with helpful exercise tips and demonstrations from Tony Little, himself. 

You can do 10 different exercises, including variations on gliding (basic, wide, low, high, forward push and power), body positions (leaning forward or leaning back), and arm movements in order to target, tone, and stretch specific muscles. The hydraulic pistons offer a lot of resistance, too. A downside, however, is that you can't adjust the level of resistance — it's either all (pistons engaged) or none (pistons disengaged).

The Gazelle Supreme 's stable frame, high-density foam handlebars, and extra-wide non-skid foot platforms with shock-absorbing rubber inserts make people feel secure. Its maximum weight capacity is 300 pounds, yet it folds up for easy storage. Numerous users note that the frame squeaks, but this annoyance is easily remedied with WD-40 lubricant spray.

The air walker workout

An air walker is powered by your body's motion and weight, so you control its speed and your workout's intensity —the faster, harder, and wider (or higher) you stride, the more intense the workout.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends adults have "at least 150 minutes a week of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity." With the air walker, you'll get aerobic and weight-bearing exercise — important for bone density — that's easy on your joints and ears (i.e., quiet enough for watching television, listening to podcasts, etc.).

From experience, I can say that striding on an air walker definitely raises the heart rate, burns calories, tones muscles, stretches legs and hips, engages the core, and tests a person's balance and coordination. Exercising on an air walker consistently helps you lose weight and strengthen muscles without bulking up.

How to shop for an air walker

When shopping for an at-home air walker, there are a few key criteria to keep in mind. Most importantly, consider its  size, frame, resistance levels,  and  versatility . Here's what to look for specifically:

Size: You want one that accommodates your stride length and weight. Many models fold up for easy storage but if you plan on keeping it set up, make sure it fits your allotted open space.

Frame: One that's strong, stable, and durable in build, yet smooth and fluid in motion is ideal.

Resistance levels: Some models come with adjustable levels of resistance while others offer no resistance. My air walker has no built-in resistance but I simply tie TheraBand resistance bands around the moving bars connecting the handles to the pedals in order to create resistance.

Versatility: In addition to moving front to back, the foot pedals of some models move side to side for additional exercises. 

Air walkers are also fairly low-maintenance. Just check for loose screws and oil the joints occasionally to keep them functioning properly.

These Are the 7 Best Workout Sliders, According to Fitness Experts

Whether you like exercising at home , at the gym , or on the go, one handy tool can help take your workout to the next level: workout sliders. Also referred to as exercise gliders, ab sliders, exercise disc sliders, or strength slides, these pieces of equipment are small, making them easy to take when you travel, and, the best part, they're relatively affordable. If you're curious about exercise sliders and want to try them, fitness experts say these are the best ones worth your dollars.

Read on for details, plus answers to all your pressing slider questions, including whether they are worth it and ways to incorporate them into your workouts.

7 best workout sliders, according to fitness pros

Best overall workout sliders:.

With thousands of positive reviews, ACE-certified personal trainer Stephanie Thomas says these easy-to-use core sliders are a great overall option and the ones she most frequently recommends to her clients.

Best workout sliders for beginners:

“I like how these sliders are larger and can fit your entire foot,” Thomas says. “This will make it easier for beginners to find balance while using the sliders.” Plus, these exercise sliders are made of an impact-resistant thermoplastic resin that makes them ideal for use on any surface, including carpet and hardwood floors.

“The original Valslide is my favorite slider,” says celebrity certified personal trainer Eric Johnson . “This version took a furniture moving instrument and glorified it for the fitness heavens.” Bonus: They come in classic green, ninja black, and hottie pink to match whatever style.

Best advanced workout sliders:

If this isn’t your first rodeo with exercise gliders and you want to take it up a notch, Johnson recommends these. “I like the versatility of this slider because it has a larger surface area and can connect together,” he says of their hexagonal shape and clip-together function. They can be used with hands or feet and work on most surfaces.

These gliding core discs are on the smaller side, which is why Thomas thinks they’re great for people already comfortable using sliders. The smaller size also makes them even more portable and easy to pack for workouts on the go.

Best budget workout sliders:

For less than $10 bucks on Amazon, you can’t beat these workout sliders. Thomas recommends these for folks who want to dip their toes into doing slider exercises without spending a lot of money. Their dual-sided design makes them versatile. The fabric side can be used on hard and smooth surfaces, while the plastic side is best on soft surfaces like carpets.

Best sliders for multiple surfaces:

While most exercise gliders can be used on various surfaces, Thomas likes these for this purpose, thanks to their double-sided design. The smooth plastic side works on carpets or atop a blanket, while the foam side works on hard floors, wood floors, or tiles.

Workout slider FAQs

Are exercise sliders worth it.

The short answer: Yes! Here's why: "Sliders allow one to perform advanced progressions of certain exercises by increasing levers but still have an added stability component since you are maintaining contact with the floor," Johnson says. Thomas adds that sliders are also low-impact , making them a good option for people with joint issues or injuries.

{{post.sponsorText}}

As for what results you can expect from using workout sliders, Thomas says you can look forward to increased core strength. "Sliders activate the core muscles, making them amazing for building core strength and stability," she explains. "Just try regular mountain climbers versus slider mountain climbers, and you'll quickly see the difference." Since using sliders also requires balance, you may also notice your balance improves overall.

And, because mixing things up when it comes to working out can keep things interesting, Thomas points out that versatility is another pro of using exercise sliders. They can be used for many exercises and incorporated into a variety workouts, including core, leg, and cardio exercises.

In particular, Johnson likes using exercise sliders for stability ball leg curls or planks because if they become easier, you can challenge yourself to do more difficult progressions by including the sliders. Thomas also recommends incorporating them when doing mountain climbers, plank jacks, slider lunges, hamstring curls, pikes, push-ups, and burpees. There's one caveat, though: "Start slow and add one or two of these workouts to your workout," she advises.

What are the best exercise sliders?

When shopping for exercise sliders, there are some guidelines to remember. For starters, Thomas recommends examining for quality. "Look for sliders made of durable materials that can withstand heavy use," she says. After all, getting the most bang for your buck is ideal, so you want sliders meant to last.

In addition to the quality of the sliders, ensure they'll be a fit for what you need them for. Thomas says that includes choosing the correct size for your hands and feet. Pro tip: They're not the right fit if you have difficulty fitting your feet in the slider. And if you plan on taking your exercise gliders on the go, such as to the gym or for traveling, Thomas says portability is another important aspect to consider.

And lastly, Thomas recommends opting for exercise gliders that are compatible with the surface you'll be using them on, whether carpet or hardwood floors. This will help prevent injury and provide a stable workout.

What can I use instead of sliders for a workout?

While waiting for your sliders to arrive in the mail, Johnson says you can also use a TRX (suspension strap system) or a glute ham roller instead of sliders. Thomas recommends using towels or paper plates as substitutes as well.

Do sliders work on gym floors?

"Sliders can work on the gym floor, but they may not glide as smoothly on rubber or carpeted floors," Thomas notes due to the friction. However, not all gym floors are the same, so she advises testing them out on the surface of your go-to gym. "There should be an area of your gym that has a surface that will work with the sliders."

And in general, whether you're working out at the gym, at home, or on the go, Johnson says sliders generally work best on a smooth surface like turf, a slide board, tile, or wood.

5 Great Things About Working Out With Gliders

• Published July 15, 2019
• 3 minute read

Gliders — those seemingly simple exercise discs — are one of the best pieces of exercise equipment. They’re especially effective to progress exercises. Do any exercise you know — such as  lunges , knee tucks or  planks  with an arm reach — and then do them with gliders; you’ll see just how much harder it is.  Glider workouts are great plateau-busters, too .

Here are five reasons trainers say you should be working out with gliders.

Add gliders to many exercises, and you target your core more. “This means you can get a good abdominal workout without ever having to do a single situp or crunch,” says  Sylvia Borowska , a New York City-based personal trainer and group exercise instructor. And then there are tons of new exercises you can do to specifically work your core. “Most core exercises on gliders start in a plank position and then add movement from either the hands or feet. So if you think you’ve mastered a plank on a mat, think again,” she says.

Although you may not realize it, when used properly, gliders can give you a cardiovascular workout. “Because it is very easy to transition from one exercise to the next, gliders not only allow for quick and efficient workouts, they also can provide cardio conditioning, depending on the exercise, reps and intensity,” Borowska says. Try this circuit from her, doing it 2–3 times, keeping your feet on the gliders the entire time:

• Reverse lunges: 10–12 reps per side
• Pushup to pike: 8–10 reps (do a pushup, followed by a pike)
• Mountain climbers: 2 sets of 30 seconds on, 10 seconds rest

“For someone who has an injury that keeps them from doing high-impact exercises, gliders can be a great alternative,” Borowska says. “Because your feet or hands stay on the gliders, there are no hard landings or jumping, which keeps the exercises low impact. Don’t be fooled, though — low impact does not mean it’s not challenging!”

“A lot of people underestimate the importance of balance and stability,” Borowska says. “As we age, we lose our sense of balance, which, in turn, leads to an increased risk of falls and injuries.” Even if you are young and plan to never grow old, being on an unstable surface puts your muscles under constant tension as they have to work harder to keep you stable throughout the full range of motion of an exercise, she adds. This helps you when you inevitably misstep off the sidewalk or lose your balance hurrying to a meeting.

Forget that fancy in-home fitness system that costs thousands of dollars. Gliders cost about $10–$25, depending on the brand and if they’re made for hardwood or carpeting. Even more, you can take them anywhere. “They’re great for the on-the-go person who may not have access to a gym at all times,” says Anthony Crouchelli, a trainer at Performix House  in New York City. “They’re super lightweight and can fit in any bag, purse or small compact carrying case that you use to travel.” Even if you don’t travel often and only use them at home, they take up minimal space, making them easy to store.

5 Reasons You Should Be Using Gliders

The fitness accessory you need..

GLIDER OBLIQUE TWISTS

Works: the obliques and core and obliques.

TIP: “Lift the hips up high when rotating for more oblique engagement!”

 SPIDER PRESS

SPIDER PRESS

Works: chest, shoulders, obliques and core.”

SQUAT AND SIDE LUNGE

Works: thighs, abductors, glutes and core.

TIP: “Squat as low as you can while maintaining form.”

DIP AND SLIDE

Works: triceps, hamstrings, back stabilisers.

TIP: “Keep your hips as high as you can and think of lifting them high as you slide your legs back in for more hamstring and butt activation.”

PLANK CRAWL

Works: Cinches your waist, working all the core stabilising muscles and shoulders.

“Find the longest journey across your room and position yourself at one end. Take yourself into a low plank position on your elbows with the balls of your feet on the gliders. Slightly tuck the pelvis under to lengthen the lower back and lightly engage the butt to support your lower back. Wrap the shoulders down the back and reach your breast bone forward, lengthening the neck. When you’re ready, walk your elbows across the room. Working out with a friend? Turn it into a race! Repeat 5 times. Going for gold? Try a reverse crawl!”

TIP: “The slower you go, the longer you hold plank and the more work you get!”
