    Ask him if he knows what 'cardio' is short for... Because honestly this is a no brained.

    If he seriously can't tell you cardio = cardiovascular then he better be hung and rich. Because well. I'm sorry for the loss. (brain cells that is)

    I'm not sure in which context you used the word "hung", but I guess either way she wins.

    What other context is there?

    Hung as in what you are thinking and hung as in strung up in the gallows.

    The elliptical is to cardio what Walmart is to grocery shopping.

    If you can't get a good cardio workout on an elliptical, you're doing it wrong (or you might be doing it on the wrong elliptical).

    Large, efficient, and an industry standard?

    Boy, I really do hope that elliptical is cardio ... otherwise the 30 minutes I just did at 90% max heart rate (plus 5 mins each of warm-up and cool-down) was a complete waste of my time.
