Walking/joggin Vs elliptical Vs steps Vs treadmill??

[Colin K]

running yes, cycling? not so much IMO. I am a former competitive cyclist/also coached cycling for 6yrs and it always amazed me how many fat cyclist competed at a very high level.... however you never see a fat runner compete at a high level.

Cardio is cardio in terms of weight loss and lung capacity, your body uses energy. The "fat" people just dont eat as well or may do less cardio than the slim ones.

There is no form of cardio better than another for burning fat. Its the intensity of training and control of diet that makes the difference.

Calories in / Calories used. Simple.

My preferences are treadmill at a steep angle (currently limited to around "11" due to plantar fasciitis in my heels), walking (due to tweaky knees) and stepmill. I don't like Elliptical at all because there's no "lifting" of the feet - meaning there's always a pressure point on the ball of the foot - my feet tend to go numb after a while. (Actually happens on bike a bit too.)

well i use all sorts of cardio machines, but depending which session it is for me i'll either use HIIT or steady pace cardio. for AM cardio i usually use HIIT cardio and for my session after my training in the afternoon i use a steady pace. i think any cardio you do is great no matter what machine it is, just be sure to challenge yourself and not use level 1 unless you're a beginner or have some medical issues of course. but if you're a healthy individual, push yourself.

We all know it's all about diet, but it's all about pushing yourself. My goal is rev my metabolism up well after I am done with cardio.

That's why I stopped the elliptical too!

Stairmaster 100%. I was never a fan of it until I started taking the fat burner, N2 Burn. Makes the stairmaster a breeze
