Elliptical machines vs treadmills
Deciding between a treadmill or an elliptical depends on your physical health and fitness goals.
Elliptical:
- it allows you to get a good cardiovascular workout without putting as much stress on your bones and joints
- it may reduce your risk for injury while you exercise
- it allows you to get both an upper and lower body workout in a shorter period of time (if the elliptical machine has arm handles)
Treadmill:
- you aren’t prone to injuries or joint issues
- you’re looking to meet a specific goal, for example training for a 5K or 10K race
- you want to build strength in your glutes and leg muscles
In summary if you are injury-prone, you might want to stick with the elliptical. If you want to burn a lot of calories and build up leg strength and speed, the treadmill may be a better choice.
