Is an elliptical machine more effective than an exercise bike or a treadmill?



How would you rate the 3 of them in terms of helping you get in shape the fastest?

I had a treadmill but I have switched over to the Elliptical. The elliptical burns more cals in a shorter amount of time because your are using your whole body and you aren't putting stress on your knees. Its like you suspended in air running so you use all your weight which means more cals burned. And it's fun!

The treadmill is good if you like to jog.
I hate excercise bikes, they are boring.

Here's a link on some info on ellipticals.
I like the eliptical machine best. The bike your just moving your legs. The treadmill the same your only move your legs unless you run which could be dangerous. The eliptical you use your arms and legs. It's hard to do but if you make it pass the first 5 minutes your good
The treadmill is the best, because of the continuous cardio. Running wins hands down over anything. Your using your whole body to do the motion. Running keeps the heart rate up alot better than any machine. Running outside is the best because you will burn twice as more calories than a treadmill. Treadmill calorie counters are not accurate.

different mouse trap, same goal, none is better than the others, just a matter of how long your on them actively using the device. time and reps cures all.
I think elliptical is more effective than the treadmill. I do the elliptical for 30 mins continously and i burn 300-350 calories easily. After that treadmill for 45 mins...
okay so from my experience the ellipitcal machine is better! i used to go on the treadmill but it became boring and I cant run on it!! i found when i went on the elliptical it burned more calories in a shorter time! and u use your arms and legs so its like your whole body instead of just walking there... i always listen to my nano! and try to watch tv! to help with the time
