    Microfiber.... According to the search engine, a cross runner appears to be an Eliptical. I'm pretty sure we are not talking about the motorcycle.

    Personally, I din't like the treadmill. I think i should be the one moving. Not the ground.
    i tried the Eliptical during my Orientation Wendsday and I'm going to stick with it. I definitely got more of a burn/ sweat with it.

    If it's just for a cardio workout as opposed to training for a sport or event then it's more down to what you enjoy the most.

    You will find that machines (or activities) that engage more muscles will give you a higher burn rate.
    So cross trainers & rowing machines will tend to allow you to burn more calories quicker than using a treadmill or cycling.
