Ellipticals
Adam G asked:


I am trying to stay fit and I find it so much easier having a treadmill or elliptical home vs running around the block. To me it is so much easier, and I dont have to worry what im wearing or being embarrassed sweating alot. I dont have to sweat running in 100 degree weather. So I convinced my mom to get me a treadmill but her price range is $400 max.. Ive found tons of great deals on treadmills and now im wondering

Which is better, a treadmill or an elliptical. What is the difference?

What is a better workout, an exercise bike or an elliptical machine?

is it just as good as running or walking.and is it a good way to lose weight by just doing it.

What do you call that exercise equipment that works like a stand up bicycle? The feet go in a pedal motion?

Joyce asked:


I have an old DP Fitness for Life Air Strider. I call it a stand up bicycle, since their is no seat. On it, my feet go around in a pedal motion. For my arms, I hold on to two levers (handles) that go back and forth and enable my arms to make the same motion I would make if I was running. The whole exercise seems equivalent to jogging without the impact that you would get on the ground. I really liked this machine, but it is now worn out. What do they call this kind of exercise equipment today? Where can I get a good deal, possibly factory refurbished? Thanks!
