Elliptical or Treadmill??
I just can't get into using my elliptical. I tire quickly, which is fine, but I just find it boring and my calves always always hurt! I just feel like I got more out of my treadmill, it was more therapeutic to me for some reason.
Does one really burn more calories than the other???

Re: Elliptical or Treadmill??
I love to run but use the elliptical to give my joints a break once in a while. I hear ya...I hate it!! I think running on the treadmill burns the most calories...walking at a decent incline and decent pace is prolly equivalent to the elliptical. Just my guess.

I can't use the elliptical- it makes my legs bigger!
I like to run b/c it only tones muscles

Re: Elliptical or Treadmill??
I am the complete opposite. We bought an elliptical machine bc I was so bored with the treadmill. I didn't feel that i was doing anything "worthy". I have lost a lot of weight while training solely on the elliptical.
My legs seemed to tone down while using it too. I just started back, so I guess I will have to see what happens!

i am the same way. The treadmill bores the heck out of me and 30 seconds on it feels like an eternity!! I always opt for the elliptical or arc trainer at the gym.
