    I would go with an elliptical. It will work your whole body. That being said the elliptical does bother my daughters knees. I would go to sears or another store and try it out first.

    I have a stationary bike, its good for getting exercise done everyday, but I have had it since Jan and am quite bored of it now, so I am hoping to change it for an elliptical soon.

    I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has knee problems on the elliptical! I feel more normal now. Haha.

    I have a stationary bike, in a way. It's an InStride Cycle, so it's just the pedal part of the bike and sits under my desk. It makes it super simple to work out because I can do it while I'm doing other things like homework on the computer or watching TV.
