The Max Total 16 comes with an integrated JRNY® experience, offering daily personalized workouts that automatically adjust to your performance and preference. Access personalized coaching, trainer-led classes, streaming entertainment, and more.

20 Resistance Levels

Push yourself with a circuit-focused sprint or scale it back for a longer endurance session with 20 levels of resistance to dial in your workout.

Compact Footprint
