    I always liked to Arc trainer by Cybex (with the moving arms, the other ones not so much). With max elevation and moderate resistance I could keep my HR in the 170-185 range for most of my workout. I would put the resistance high enough that I had to push and pull with my arms as well as working my legs.

    Plus it's just really fun.

    If you want even higher calorie burn but with zero fun, try the Jacob's Ladder machine. I've never managed to go more than 12 minutes, and that may have been the 12 worst minutes of my life. Peak HR was 204, which I'm pretty sure isn't good, lol.

    I love the elliptical! If I really push myself, I can burn 600 cals in an hour.

    For machines - sprints and intervals on the treadmill and rowing machine burn heaps for me. I love the rowing machine, I can push myself harder than with running.

    Off the machines - burpees, wall balls, box jumps, squat jumps etc do the trick. Skipping is great and all you need is a skipping rope. 5 minutes of burpees will get the calorie burn happening!
