Which burns more calories quicker treadmill or epilipitcal machine?!


Question: Which burns more calories quicker treadmill or epilipitcal machine.?
Say over a half hour going full force!Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Regardles of the aerobic exercise involved, your heart rate is a good indicator of your level of exertion. Unless you are a specialized athlete, you will want to keep your heart rate in an aerobic zone (look up aerobic exercise for details).

You can over-exert yourself on a treadmill or the elliptical machine. If you allow your heart rate to get into the anaerobic zone, you will be exhausting yourself and you will probably give up over time. The best workout is at an optimal heart rate over a period of one hour, five days a week. That's assuming you are healthy and very fit.

You can get a good workout by running, swimming, using a rowing machine, skipping rope, dancing, or any of many types of activities. You can burn more calories by raising your activity level, however, as I said earlier, there is an optimal heart rate.

Make sure to regulate your exertion level by monitoring your heart rate. Exercising in the anaerobic zone can be dangerous if you don't know what you are doing.Health Question & Answer

Neither, if you want to be burning maximum calories, you should really think about getting a heart rate monitor. With a heart rate monitor, you can get yourself in your optimum fat-burning zone and stay there by monitoring your heart rate. But otherwise, it's hard to say - are running or walking on the treadmill.? What level are you taking it to on the elliptical machine.? If you don't have a rate monitor but you want to try exercising at your target heart rate, try exercising at slow pace (like walking) for 10 minutes before you start running on the tread mill or taking off on the elliptical machine. This helps you keep a steady heart rate.Health Question & Answer

The epilipitcal machine burns more cals because it works the whole body !

It gets the heart rate beating faster!

It depends which work out you'd prefer but the epilipitcal machine is very easy to use and is a favourite for most people because it works the whole body and works you very hard but you can't feel it and does not hurt nor wear you out because its in balance!
