Do elliptical machines burn more than treadmills?

by admin on April 14, 2009

When I'm at the gym, I can supposedly burn like 400 calories in 30 minutes on an elliptical, but only about 250 on a treadmill. Is this accurate or are the machines a little off? Thanks so much!

ellipticals do burn much more. It is the most efficient way to work out. I love that machine and wouldn't use anything else
