    Not true. I use an hrm and the elliptical cal gets my heart rate higher than the bike and treadmill as long as there is a high resistance. :)

    I get drenched on the Elliptical - my daughter asked me if why it looked like I had been swimming when I do the elliptical. My average BPM ranges between 155-176 BPM.

    I just bought a $1000. Elliptical machine from Sears, and i love it. I hope this is not true. I always heard the Elliptical was better workout v/s the Treadmill. I got my heartrate up without even trying. I have wrist heart rate monitor i wear during exercise, the ones built in exercise machines are not accurate.
