  • When it comes to working out at home, treadmill vs elliptical vs exercise bike is often a topic of discussion. All three can provide an effective workout and help you achieve your weight loss goals. Depending on your physical ability and fitness level, one might be better suited for you than another so take the time to really think about which one is right for your lifestyle. Treadmills offer those who want a more intense workout something that can really get their heart pumping and helps them burn more calories. Elliptical machines have a low impact motion that can also help you lose weight, just at a slower rate than treadmill workouts. Lastly, stationary bikes (regardless of whether they're upright, recumbent or spin bikes) are possibly the easiest and least taxing form of exercise as they require very little effort from the user, but can still help with weight loss when done properly. Investing in any of these pieces of equipment will give you the opportunity to keep up with your health from the comfort of your own home!

    Great bike. This is belt driven which results in far less noise and requires less maintenance as compared to the chain driven model.

    I like to alternate between treadmill and elliptical. If I do use the elliptical, I crank up the resistance. For the treadmill I crank up the incline. I’m not a runner, but I walk fast. I always try to control my heart rate to get the best fat burn. I also will do high intensity periods and easier recovery periods. It’s been working great for me. Gotta put in the effort. My goals are more for endurance and cardio to lower my blood pressure and not so much about losing weight, although it’s a plus when I do lose weight

    i think what ppl were looking for is the amount of calories burned on each form of equipment .

    • @Fitnessdy
      @Fitnessdy  Před 10 měsíci +7

      Thank you, that's a great point! My thought was that getting fit is more than just about a generic caloric burn; you also need to build muscle, have fun, etc. That's why I picked this format

    This is a little deceiving as with walking it's been shown to burn more fat with less potential damage than jogging, running, or cycling, not sure about stepping. I cycled daily for 10 miles (1 hour, about 11mph), then every other day for 15 miles (1.5 hours about 11 mph) from may to September and didn't lose a bit. Yes I got stronger but no weight loss. Then I took a job at a gas station w multiple food availability and lost a bunch walking all over on the job daily, and my stomach flattened in the process with no change in diet.

    • @Fitnessdy
      @Fitnessdy  Před 10 měsíci +8

      "I got stronger but no weight loss" --> that's your muscles developing. Weight loss through cardio alone can decrease your muscle mass. That means the number on the scales are lower, but you're also less strong. But that said, walking and staying active throughout the day are genuinely the best ways to lose weight consistently. I would also personally add some strength training 2x per week to ensure I'm not losing muscle mass

    • @TRIBECHIEFTAIN
      @TRIBECHIEFTAIN Před 5 měsíci

      Yes that’s 100% Correct working out on the Cross Trainer and been doing 20.000 steps per day and have lost 20kg ! I’ve lost and gained more on the elliptical over the others… Best is a combination of 45 minutes on the Elliptical and 45 minutes walking on the treadmill 👍🏾

    • @mr.america9806
      @mr.america9806 Před měsícem

      1) Walking
      2) Jogging is for fat loss, weight loss and endurance.
      3) Cycling is just for thigh muscle, no use for fat or weight loss.
      4) Elliptical also in between walking and cycling but not as effective as walking.

    i am at 200 pounds and i started gym. after 2 weeks i am at 196 pounds. but somedays my weight increases and someday decreases. what should i do? i eat around 1700 calories per day....

    • @Fitnessdy
      @Fitnessdy  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Calculate your macros to ensure you're OK with 1700 calories.
      Stay active throughout the day even if you're going to the gym. It's more important to walk, fidget, play with your kids/pets.
      Drink lots of water.
      Account for the fact that you might be gaining muscles as well. Also, weight fluctuates monthly according to hormones etc.
      It's more important to stay consistent instead of checking your weight daily. Better yet, just check your measurements once per month :) and be patient, 2 wees is still just a tiny period

    • @Magnulus76
      @Magnulus76 Před 5 měsíci

      Your weight will fluctuate as you lose weight, that's normal.
      I like using a ketone breath meter every morning just to check to make sure I'm burning fat. And I try to eat a low fat diet.

    i do treadmill for 25 minutes on a speed between 6-7 with a incline of 12 crosstrainer and cycle for 15-20 minutes each is that enough for losing weight?

    • @Fitnessdy
      @Fitnessdy  Před měsícem

      Yes, that's enough! You can do just one at a time instead of all in one session. And then squeeze in a few strength and mobility exercises for good measure.

    Please reply iam 78 kg woman.if i do manual treadmill walking for 30 minutes how much calorie will burn how many times we can use tread mill in one day.

    • @Fitnessdy
      @Fitnessdy  Před 17 dny

      Here's a good calculator you can use. Check different speeds and inclines and you'll get a very accurate answer: www.treadmillcalculator.com/
      As for how many times you can use the treadmill in one day - as many as you feel like :) Just make sure you're not excessively tired or sore. If your goal is to lose weight, I recommend doing the 12-3-30 treadmill walking plan. That means incline 12, speed 3 mph (meaning aprox 5 km/ h) and 30 minutes :)
      Let me know how it goes!!

      You just might 😀 I'm honestly in love with deep core exercises that activate the transverse abs. They really work to snatch your waist, sometimes better than crunches. For example, farmer's carries or rotational lunges are great. Elipticals can work your balance too, if you're not holding onto the handles (but be careful if yoi're a beginner!) And let me know how this works!!

    For fat burn, there is nothing better than running or treadmill. Elliptical - moderate fat burn and moderate muscle gain. Bike - moderate fat burn and lower body muscle gain.
