Which is better?

Whether you have a home gym, or whether you go to the gym, 2 machines that most of us have tried or seen are the treadmill and the elliptical trainer. Some of us prefer the treadmill, whilst others prefer the elliptical. Which is better? I have summarised the pro’s and cons of each in the tables below.

Regardless of which you choose, my sentiments are always that so long as you are moving, you are benefitting.

Live long and prosper,

Jo
