    A treadmill is just as effective at losing weight and inches all over than any other exercise machine. You won't jus tlose from those areas though.

    Well, running burns tons of calories and helps build lean muscles (or, I think it can help you bulk if you do insane inclines and stuff), so I'm sure that something's going to change! I've found running helps me lose weight, but my thighs and calves have been particularly stubborn these past few months...

    You can't spot reduce from certain areas only, but cardio in general will help you drop some weight and I'm sure some will come from those areas. I have a treadmill at my house and walk/jog a couple times a week when I don't want to go to the gym and I've lost many inches from those areas you've listed. A treadmill is such a great tool for exercise as much allow you to up the incline which works different body parts more than others. :smile:
