That elliptical is kicking my butt! Ha. Question: does 15 mins of elliptical equate to 30 mins on treadmill walking? I really enjoy walking but I REALLY sweat in elliptical.

    And that's your fatal flaw.

    It depends on a lot of things, like your intensity and pace on both machines. But based on most studies, while the elliptical will burn more calories, it is not a 2 to 1 gain over a brisk paced walk.
