cross-trainer
Stationary exercise device
A cross-trainer is an athletic shoe designed for multiple activities—running, weightlifting, aerobics—rather than specialized for one sport.
The term also refers to a piece of gym equipment combining the motions of stair climbing, cycling, and skiing: I spent thirty minutes on the cross-trainer.
Cross-training itself means varying workouts to improve overall fitness.
