Treadmills Vs Ellipticals

Sometimes, no matter what machine you're looking to buy, it won't always be cheap. For effective weight loss, strength training, or endurance training, you need to find out which machine is best at all three.

The most popular machines out there for cardiovascular workouts are of course, the treadmill and the elliptical, but which is better for you ? This has been a touchy subject for ages now. However, when it comes to which is better for you, it's really all about preference.

Both machines can be equally effective as far as burning calories, if used correctly. The treadmill is usually the preferred choice by athletes because of its realistic running experience, that is, the legs certainly will feel the real running experience (aches and pains that go away with more running, as well as being more difficult in general) which the elliptical does not offer. However, the elliptical is probably the preferred choice of people wishing to lose weight or simply gain cardiovascular strength without the extra effort of a true jog.

So when it comes right down to it, it's all about preference!
