I used to be a long distance runner but hurt my back and can't really run because I constantly reinjure it from the hard impact nature of running. I've used elliptical machines in the past but haven't since hurting myself. I was just curious of anyones opinion with regards to elliptical machines and their impact on the lower back? Anyone have any thoughts or experiences to share?

Thanks!
