Exercise machine, or torture device
Of all the gym equipment I use daily, the macine I hate the most is the "stair master"! On any given day, I can attribute close to 40% of my burned calories to this device. In fact, my goal is to burn enough calories using any and every other device at the gym. Only when I see that it is inevitable, and I'm not going to…

Its like everybody decided to get in shape on Monday. Sometimes you gotta wait 1/2 an hour just to get an elliptical, or an exercise bike. There is an indoor track at my gym, but even that is crowded. Tuesday thru Sunday theres no line for anything. So what is it about Mondays?

Is there an accurate method to determine how many calories a
My problem is that every elliptical, every treadmill, every exercycle at the gym gives you a different number for calories burned during a 30 minute workout.
