Me and my sister want to buy one are thinking about buying one this week. I read that they are a good full body workout. Are they? Can they make the fat in my stomach, arms, legs… go away?

Why is it that when I use the elliptical at the gym I only burn about 250 calories every 40 min, but at home i burn about 500 in the sme amount of time? I use the same settings and work just as hard.

Pondering asked:


I have patellafemoral syndrome and am currently undergoing physical therapy (which doesn’t seem to be doing much at all and it’s been about 5-6 weeks, though I am adamently doing my exercises…) I know this takes time, but I haven’t been to the gym in 2 months!

The elliptical absolutely KILLS my knees, but running doesn’t hurt (according to my PT, that’s very strange and backwards) However, my PT guesses that my knee pain came from my running without building up my quad muscles.

What can I do to work out? Can I run if it doesn’t hurt me at all? I want to swim, but I’m terrible at it and I can hardly do half a lap without almost dying. Also, does anyone have any specific exercises that they could recommend that REALLY work for this condition?
