What exercise you like best for Cardio?

[Dlove]

Im gettin sick of bangin away on the treadmill so are my knees. Is the elliptical effective. Ive used it a few times but it seems to burn out my quads too quick. I wish I lived on the beach cause I would do all cardio there like jogs surfin etc. wvolleyball.

What exercise do you like?

 

[Vigilance]

I usually walk on a treadmill or around my neighborhood at a moderate pace for 30-45 minutes. Or I occasionally use the elliptical and do HIIT for 20-30 minutes.

The Precor machine (Elliptical machine) is by far my favorite. I will do a 25 minute session, with 5 minutes of cool down.

I love the Precor....its not bad on your knees, and plus I hate to run.

I don't mind doing the stairmaster, but the Precor is my fav.

Muay Thai and BJJ, the funniest cardio i have ever tried....

 

[DaLinkWent]

Elliptical machines hands down . . .

Usualy the aerboics crosstrain option that has you speed up, slow down, go forwards and then go backwards . . . .

I hate doing cardio, but if I had to pick I'd have to go w/elliptical for machines. Other favorite exercises would be swimming or walking. Rather lift any day of the wk then do cardio

 

[Rules]

elliptical by far, no knee stress.

Do you run them long distances or short sprints? I'm guessin you find a field, hook up your sled and pull that shit around short distances as fast as you can to get a HIIT feel to it

walk dont run. the resistance is all you need to have you gasping of air. i normally pull 135# .2 miles thru the grass and stuff. incredible workout. power cardio at its best.

Huh? Got it . . . .

What about running with one of those parachute lookin things on your back?

I'll take basketball or rollerblading over any of those boring ass machines. I hate cardio, but I need it to, so yeah, I'm using the treadmill anyway.
