Cardio Fitness Equipment

I live in an apartment and I am in desperate need of some type of fitness equipment to whip myself into shape for the summer time. A traditional treadmill or elliptical machine are entirely too big and I would have no where to put anything of that size. I have seen mini steppers and mini elliptical machines, etc. but I don't know which is best. Any suggestions as to what kind and which brands of machines I should buy?

Shoes, a hat, and gloves. Get outside and walk or jog the streets of your town. It's much less expensive then a treadmill and takes up no space, except in the closet.

Like treadmills? The one i'm looking at is called the loop (in san rafael) and the only feature that it says on the website is circuit training.

I am looking for in home equipment for cardio. I have never owned a piece of gym equipment. I am on a budget and definately don't want a treadmill. I have quite a bit of weight to lose and am in my twenties. What would be good for me? An Elliptical, Stair Climber, what else? Also, what is a good brand to look for that is not overly expensive?

A jump rope helps alot and its cheap, builds cardio and burns calories. And you can take it anywhere.

What's the best Cardio Equipment that can help you loose weight fastest (i Can't do weight lifting stuff I'm under 18 )

Any piece of equipment that increases your heart rate and gets you sweating is good. Cardio is designed to burn calories, so whatever one makes you work hardest is the one I would go for.

You don't even need equipment to get a good cardio workout done. Strap on your running shoes and go for a jog/run. This is the most effective way to get an allover body workout and burn heaps of calories.

This following website gives you the tools you need to develop a healthy lifestyle and maintain it for a lifetime.

Good luck and all the best with your weight loss goals

All the cardio machines; treadmills, bikes, elliptical, stair-steppers, etc.; monitor "Watts". What is being measured? How do I use this information to improve my fitness? What is the ideal "watt" ( wattage??) for losing weight or for cardio benefits?

Watts is the measure for electricity power. Usually treadmills use calories to measure the fat burn, which can been seen through the display of treadmill.

The "Watts" may refer to the horsepower which is the feature of motor, as motor is the important part in treadmill. And the motor has two different features for treadmill that you need to pay attention to, the Peak HP and Continuous HP.
