    I agree with those above in that it's what you will stick to, which applies to all types of workouts. I do workouts that I enjoy and will help me reach my goals.

    Personally, machine cardio seems endless to me. Even half an hour on the treadmill or elliptical with good music in my ears and a TV screen in front of me feels like an eternity. I enjoy cardio where I have to move around like "kickboxing" type workouts, floor aerobics, and step aerobics. Basically anything that keeps my mind engaged so I'm not thinking about the time. I'm considering trying Zumba in the coming year.
  • For me I feel like I've done something with the Elliptical. However I also use the Treadmill and stationary bike and three 25 minutes of weight training

    I have bad knees (ACL tear on one & ACL/MCL tear on the other) from sports therefore, the treadmill & running are out of the question for me. I begin on the elliptical (HIIT) high intensity, then lower it, then I practically run on the elliptical always having a slow start & slow ending. Then comes the weights, finished with cycling (another good one for my knees) followed by a cool down on the treadmill. It does get boring sometimes so I switch it up. Find what works for YOU! :smile:

    Best Cardio workout is the one that you will actually DO! if its a chore, then its not the best
