Elliptical Cross
Are there any advantages or disadvantages to using the cross trainer (elliptical) rather than the Treadmill?
I find the eliptical easier on my knees, I can go longer on it for more intense cardio than I can on a treadmill without feeling any pain in my knees or from my shin splints. Thus I will stay on it for 30 min to an hour at a time and prefer it to the treadmill. But on a treadmill, you burn more calories when going at an equivalent speed, so it really is a better overall workout. I still use the treadmill pretty often, to keep up the heart rate after the eliptical machine by putting it on a higher grade, but walking, or for occasional jogging to keep my body from adapting to one sort of exercise over and over. Redundent exercise leads to a gradual tapering off of metabolism, so I try to do new things every now and again, not get stuck in a routine.
