What's the deal with the Elliptical?
Why is it that the elliptical always displays a high amount of calories burned? The Life Fitness ellipticals at my gym even ask me to enter my body weight for accurate calories expenditure. It seems like the elliptical display almost 5x calories burned than working hard on the treadmill. Is there really that much more energy expenditure on the elliptical versus treadmill/stairmill or is it inaccurate in some ways?
