The motion is smooth and advantageous, burning quite a few calories very quickly.
When I set up a home gym, I could only afford the most basic and affordable equipment. I purchased necessities such as a yoga mat, jump rope and set of free weights. As I saved up some money, I added a medicine ball and resistance bands. However, I really wanted a bigger piece of machinery. It took me a while to be able to afford something new. Since I have limited space in my home gym, I was determined to make a smart decision. There are all different makes, models and styles of fitness machines on the market. I initially considered a treadmill because it’s possible to burn a great deal of calories in a short amount of time. I was a bit worried about the hard impact on my joints and feet. Plus, I like to run outdoors. I can go for a jog for free. I then looked into stationary bikes. This option eliminated the concern of harming my hips, knees, ankles and feet. Unfortunately, the bike only works the legs. I also prefer to ride an actual bicycle. I finally researched ellipticals and was super impressed. Since the feet never lift off the pedals, there’s no jarring impact. Plus, there is the opportunity to work both arms and legs. The motion is smooth and advantageous, burning quite a few calories very quickly. I like that the operation of the elliptical is especially quiet. I can play music or even watch television while I workout. It’s easy to increase resistance and speed to get more out of the effort.
