The Lower-Body Only Problem
A lot of compact ellipticals only ask the legs to work
Fixed handlebars are common on space-efficient cross trainers, which keep the frame simple but leave the upper body along for the ride rather than as part of the workout. Members end up doing the same lower-body motion they'd get on a bike or treadmill, just standing, without the calorie burn and coordination benefits that true upper-body engagement provides.
The Star Trac 6CT Cross Trainer uses articulating arms that engage both the upper and lower body, turning a lower-body cardio session into genuine total-body training. A 20-inch fixed stride and alternator resistance system keep the motion smooth across 20 levels of intensity, delivering the kind of consistent, quiet resistance curve that facilities expect from Star Trac's commercial cardio line.
A rear courtesy step and an 11-inch step-up height keep entry and exit accessible for riders of any fitness level, not just those already comfortable on cardio equipment. That low, intuitive access point matters most in shared facilities where staff aren't always available to help a hesitant first-time user get on safely.
Technology:
The Star Trac 6CT, part of the OpenHub™ ecosystem, offers seamless connectivity and intuitive user engagement. Choose the Touchscreen console for streaming, interactive workouts, and real-time tracking, or the 10in LCD console for a simplified, performance-driven interface. With Bluetooth, wireless integration, and over-the-air updates, your facility stays ahead.

Connected without feeling complicated
Everything a facility needs, nothing it doesn't
- Apex G3 16-inch Touch, LCD+, or LED console options to match facility budget
- Bluetooth connectivity with tap-to-pair for Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch
- Quick Keys on Apex LED and LCD+ displays for fast resistance changes
- Wireless phone charger built in, no separate accessory required
- Over-the-air software updates keep every console tier current
The 16 inch Touch console adds Netflix, RunTV, and personal device mirroring for facilities that want a fully engaging cardio floor.

What Dealers Say
- A refined cardio solution built for shared spaces - "In hospitality and multi-housing fitness centers, the 6CT's sleek profile and approachable design provide guests and residents with a refined cardio solution that enhances satisfaction and retention."
- Authorized Star Trac Dealer - Star Trac's own 4CT Cross Trainer offers 40 resistance levels and a higher 450-pound capacity for less money, so it still wins on raw specs. The 6CT trades some of that range for articulating arms and Bluetooth tap-to-pair connectivity, a fair swap for facilities that want total-body engagement over sheer numbers. A basic budget elliptical without those movement arms might undercut both on price, but it asks members to settle for a lower-body-only workout and a console with none of the Apex platform's built-in connectivity.
- Best Usage - Best for Independent gyms and hospitality amenity spaces that want genuine total-body cardio and connected consoles in a compact, approachable footprint.
