Just got the ifit for my ellipictal, just wondering if others are using it and how they like it. Tonight was the first time I used and I actually burned an additional 60 more calories in 20 mins! Are you able to use it for weight exercise as well or just on a cardio machine?

Yes I have it on my treadmill (that inclines) and on my bicycle. I love it.
Plus I go on line to ifit.com and I can see how much I logged on and burned. I got the premium package.
The treadmill is nice. I got google maps on it and can run using street views and its so nice and I can make my OWN walk/run or download theirs. Like the grand canyon, liberty bell, washington monument, run miami beach, go to paris, or africa. The faster you go...the faster the screen moves and you can see it. Its very internactive.
But that you have to pay for that feature.
As for the elliptical. My sister trying to give me the elliptical. My knees cant handle it. So I passed. But I earn other equipments but those are the only two that have the ifit program installed in it.
I LOVE it......but last year they had trouble with their web site and It was a hassel. Its still a new company. But they are getting better. I think they will go in the right direction.
The only thing I have a problem with is. My treadmill has a polar heart rate monitor. I follow one of their programs. (They got my weight, age, height, gender) all program so I can burn correctly the calories. But I want to burn in my burning zone (the fat burning zone).I can burn to the max heart rate easy. So I am constantly changing the speed lowering it to what the program is telling me what to do..which is bad for me. Because yeah I am burning calories....but i want to burn fat. Then when the fat goes......then I will start going back to marathon training.0
