nordictrack exercise

i think the elliptical will give an all-over workout as opposed to the treadmill. i just bought one myself (see my fitness list) & love it. i looked at this one, but found the one i bought better overall, including "footprint". JMO. :)

I tested it once and on an elliptical you burn at least 2xs the calories as you would on a treadmill. Plus you use more of your body

you burn off more

good luck! ;)

less jarring on your knees

much better workout!

this gets all parts of your lower and upper body more fit.

He could always just take a run outside instead of on a treadmill

the low inpact will save your knees.

more of a workout

upper and lower body training.

this will give you a better workout!

I'm pretty sure that ellipticals work more muscles than treadmills. It works muscles in a shorter time than treadmills also.

i think this one!!!

Ellipticals are great if your knees and joints ever hurt...and its a bit more interesting to do that walk or run so often it can keep the interest longer, both are equally good cardio machines, its simply what can you stick with-- b/c sticking with is what's going to get you in shape and healthy!

this 1 b'cuz it will help will weight loss and tone all ur leg and arm muscles at da sam time

check out costco, i brought a nordic track there for a lot less than what you'd pay elsewhere...get an elliptical with arm bars also to make it a complete workout

elliptical is way better!

easier and burns calories like a rock star

Eliptical machines are great. They don't feel like you're exercising and they're easy on the knees! Also fun to use, so you may get a bonus and have the kids using it too!

this one just walking is kinda boring

I personally love ellipticals but they are not for everyone...it would be a good idea to test one out before you buy it in case you don't like it. They are better for your knees though.

ummm okay

kids love playing on tredmils so it could be dangerous, plus i hear stairsteppers work better

this one

u can go more speeds

this one

TREDMILL RULES !

running rules

The elliptical machine doesn't provide much muscle-building resistance.

Can't go wrong with a tread!
