| So the owner of my company is going to get me either a elliptical or a treadmill to help me on my journey to lose weight. I've never used a elliptical, but I hear they are better for your joints. The befit of the treadmill is that it folds up. Which should I get ? Which would you get? |
| Neither. Get a row machine. That or an exercise bike. Treadmills are ok once in a while if in a pinch but I don't recommend them regularly, they are not the same as being on regular land. The elliptical forces an abnormal stride. Again, ok occasionally but I wouldn't use it regularly. |

(running is great, but there's a free running machine outside your front door ;) |
