An elliptical treadmill with torsional swinging effect having pedestals, a crank mechanism, a damping device and pedals. Two sloping guide rails are arranged symmetrically between the front and middle supports of the pedestal. One end of two sloping guide rails connecting the front support is arranged laterally. Two pedals are arranged separately onto two sloping guide rails and connected with the crank mechanism. A slide guide is set at front bottom of the pedals in a steerable state and mated onto two sloping guide rails in a sliding state. A universal joint is set at rear bottom of the pedals and connected with left and right cranks. With this configuration, this can resolve the limitation of a conventional elliptical treadmill, enabling the pedals to generate both elliptical and torsional swinging movements, bringing the users a different feeling and improving the fitness effect with higher flexibility and applicability.
