3+ hour cross-training session today: free weights, elliptical, treadmill, cycle, stair machine, then repeat! @ @
@ 5 miles on the treadmill DONE! Then 20 mins on the elliptical, DONE! I want buns of steel.
Why is it I can do an hour on the treadmill, but 15 mins on an elliptical kills me?
8 miles treadmill/elliptical/bike @ Booyah! Yeah, that's how I roll! 
25 minutes treadmill; 20 minutes bike; 20 minutes elliptical; upper and lower body weight training; stretching. Who's the man now?Answers
I have been working out on the elliptical & treadmill for 35 mins ea. This is for 3-4 days a week.
I eat portion controled meals along w/ fruits, veggies, yogurt, during the week. I cut a lil loose on the wkend.
Yes! Keep that routine up for several weeks and you will see results. You'll gain muscle and begin to lose fat. Make sure to figure out what heartrate you should be sticking near.
If your weight initially goes up, don't panic....

I need to lose more calories per hour. What is the best option - a treadmill, elliptical or an indoor cycle?
Also, please suggest any good brands, preferably below $400.
Thanks!!!
You will lose more calories by running than the other two. That being said, run in intervals, like quarter mile all out sprints with two to three minutes recovery between them and you will increase your calories burned. It will be hard to find a...
Elliptical seems a lot easier, I only do it because after i'm done running on the treadmill my left knee kills. I also burn a lot more calories on the elliptical. I enjoy running and I have to get used to it because I am leaving for bootcamp at...
You are absolutely right in your own assessment...the elliptical machine is used to reduce stress on the joints. However, even though it is a great alternative to running (providing all the same sort of aerobic activity), unfortunately it is not...
I am looking at whether one of these is truly better than the other in terms of how many fat calories can be burned in a given session at the same speed. Links to useful and reliable sources of information on the web or references would be helpful...
It's all about intensity. Like someone else said, how hard you work determines how many calories you burn. Whichever one gets your heart rate up and pushes you is the one that will burn the most calories for you.
Im getting into running and biking but its gonna get cold here soon so ill have to workout indoors.. Im wondering if there is a difference between elliptical and treadmill workouts.. And if there is which would be better to increase endurance??
Treadmill for endurance - Elliptical for low impact.
I am looking to buy either the Elliptical (Cross Trainer) or a treadmill for home use, by me and my family. I hear that treadmill is a better workout, but then I hear the cross trainer is better because of the optional arm movements, any advice?...
Treadmills and running in general is hard on your knee's. An elliptical will provide the same workout without the long-term effects.
I, however, do cardio on the treadmill, it is much more fun and easier to guage your distances and speeds...

Elliptical vs. treadmill
Health Tip: Elliptical vs. treadmill
While many exercisers think of the treadmill as high-impact and the elliptical as low-impact, it's important to understand that low impact doesn't mean low intensity. Using the cross-trainer handlebars and increasing the resistance on an elliptical trainer can be equally as intense as a run on the treadmill. You can determine your exact intensity levels by using a heart rate monitor.

New Research: Life expectancy gaps
At present, the life expectancy gap between countries is 36 years, and there is ample evidence that in all countries of the world –– whether low-, middle- or high-income –– an individual's health status is largely determined by his socio-economic position. With the right mix of government policies, and through coordinated action on the local, national and international levels, the existing gaps could be narrowed.
The Schwinn 820p Treadmill Review — Highly Overrated
Whenever a new Consumer Reports magazine comes out with a feature on treadmills or ellipticals, the members here at the DOJO gather around for a lot of good laughs at what the “experts” have to say. As you may or may not know, our friends at CR put out another magazine with treadmill reviews this past February. And boy did it cause some laughs.
One of the “top rated” treadmills in particular was worth a good chuckle: the Schwinn 820p treadmill from Nautilus. I’m not completely sure what the reviewers were smoking but I think they need to share it with the rest of us.
If Nautilus had priced the Schwinn 820p at about $699 it would have been an excellent buy, but at the $1000 or more the treadmill sells for, the unit is simply outclassed by the opposition.
