The Elliptical: sluff off 600 calories

Ever hear of or use an "elliptical" machine? These exercise machines are one of the most demanding and more rewarding of all exercise devices. That is, if you take full advantage of all they have to offer.

An elliptical can work your entire body, and many can be set to emulate cardio machines, stair climbers and cross-country skiing machines (using different inclines and strides).

In all, the versatility an elliptical machine has makes a purchase very worthwhile. Or, find one in that fave gym (that isn't being used) and get rid of a horde of calories today.
