    I usually don't fall for any kind of gimmick, but are you saying that this is one? :(

    I have a treadclimber. They cannot guarantee every single person will burn 600 cals in 30 mins, there are several other factors at play. Each individual will burn a different amount of calories.


    That being said, I sure as hell was not burning 600 calories in 30 minutes on it. More like 300-400, depending how hard I was working. I was also at a heavier weight when using it and was in a far less physical shape than I am now.

    Really? I burned 340 calories in 40 minutes on the treadmill today (fast pace/steep incline). :-/

    Yesterday I did the elliptical, 1 1/2 miles, medium speed/level and burned 265 cals, today I did the elliptical for the same amount of time, 1 1/2 miles, higher speed and burned only 10 cals more. How is that even possible? Even I can't figure that one out
