Only if you have bad knees, otherwise run on the treadmill. The treadmill is the best way to maximize your workout in a short amount of time. All of that other shit is for lazy ass niggas.. ( bike, elliptical ). Run on the treadmill and you will see results.
The whole point of exercise is raising the heart rate to 60--80% of your training heart rate. However you do it doesn't matter or make you lazy. If you run for 20 mins and your heart rate is at 167 bpm and I work out on the elliptical for 20 mins and my heart rate is at 167 bpm does that mean you have worked harder
There is no difference in oxygen intake, heart rate and calorie burning between jogging and using the elliptical.Yep, your a fucking idiot.

Nigga you have no idea what you're talking about. A 167 heart rate is straight cardio. The op wants to lose fat. His heart rate should be 120-125. You can say whatever you want, I have all types of exercise equipment in my crib, and the treadmill is the most efficient way to burn fat. 30 mins of medium intensity on a treadmill burns way more fat than 30 mins of medium intensity on a bike or eliptical. Hey, what do i know....I'm currently 6'2 237lbs 14% body fat....

Yep...... You're right...An overweight fat nigga is going to argue with someone who's been running and weight lifting for 15yrs... ok..
You are right
I have been on the treadmill strong for months and have seen major results
A lot of people say they dont like the treadmill but you dont even have to be on there that long per day to get the same results you will get riding a bike for miles or being on the elliptical

Threads like this usually bring out the clown niggas. Kind of like in the gym. I'm one of the strongest cats in the gym, then some fat nigga who can only bench press the bar is going to pull me aside and critique how I was spotting my friend.
Why are the people who know the least the main ones talking mad shit?!?! 
About four miles 4 times a week outdoors, and the elliptical twice a week for 30 minutes. I love running outdoors to much to ever give the treadmill a chance. The elliptical helps when I feel shin splints coming on because of all the pounding when I run outside. Sometimes I hate running on the elliptical because that shit feels to easy.

Damn who would've known that a fucking workout thread would bring out the emotional bitches. Nigga if you aren't happy with your slovenly body, do something about it. Don't act the bitch on a message board when I'm giving sound advice to niggas.

How did it go?

You exactly the type of clown that walks around the gym thinking he is dropping knowledge when he knows nothing
First of all you say 167bpm is straight cardio
and what does that make 125 bpm? Do you even know what cardio is I wonder. Cardio is simple any exercise that raises the heart rate so if someone is at 125bpm thats still 'straight cardio'. From your assumption that the treadmill burns fat better just goes to show how little you know. What burns fat is the amount of calories you burn not the machine and that amount is decided by how much you push your body to use it's own energy reserves. The only reason why ignorant people like you think the treadmill burns more fat is because you think the torn ligaments and torn muscles pain you feel is a good workout . Like I said Cardio is not about the machine but the intensity and length of the exercise, any athlete would tell you that. And stop giving false advice for someone to lose weight they need to be at 125 bpm. For someone to lose fat he needs to calculate his training heart rate .subtract age from 220 and then make sure his heart rate is 65 80% of that figure for at least 30 minutes a day.
For the first 20 minutes of exercise the body uses carbohydrates as fuel then after that it starts to use fat, hence the higher your heart rate the more fat burned
If he is 26, 220-26= 194 BPM, so 80% would be keeping his heart rate at between 155 bpm
How you came up with the figure 125 bpm is a mystery
i only bike once a week and usually about 2 miles
i run 3.25 miles 4 days a week
i run 3.25 miles 4 days a week
right now i am using this thing called "Trainer Lite" it is a free app on the iPhone. You get pretty accurate GPS and voice notifications for miles but that is about it...you can listen to music but only if you load it up first and since the iPhone has no multi-tasking if you exit the program or get a call on your run it erases everything
This droid looks good...does it do mile splits? I want to track which miles were the fastest etc
"It's not about the bike," according to the title of Lance Armstrong's autobiography. Except, perhaps, when the bike costs half a million dollars.

"It's not about the bike," according to the title of Lance Armstrong's autobiography. Except, perhaps, when the bike costs a half million dollars. True, it takes only about $10,000 to $15,000 to buy a bike equal to many that world-class cyclists use at their sport's highest level. But we've tracked down far costlier bikes that justify their astronomical price tags with gold, jewels, custom design and cutting edge technology.
"Butterfly" Trek Madone
Price: $500,000
A few months after the 2009 Tour de France, a Trek Madone ridden by Lance Armstrong on the race's final day in Paris was sold at a Sotheby's cancer benefit event. Aside from being graced by the legs of a seven-time Tour winner, it was also designed by Damien Hirst, with hundreds of real butterfly wings clear-coated to its carbon frame. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals called it a "horrific barbarity." It may also be the most expensive bike in history.
Trek Yoshitomo Nara Speed Concept
Price: $200,000
In the same charity auction, Trek sold $800,000 worth of other bikes designed by world-famous artists and ridden by Armstrong in major cycling events. Aside from the half-million "Butterfly" Madone, those two-wheeled artifacts included a Trek Speed Concept time trial bike painted and decaled by Japanese artist Yoshitomo Nara. Armstrong rode the bike in the 18th stage of the tour, and the carbon fiber masterpiece sold for $200,000.
Aurumania Crystal Edition Gold Bike
Price: $101,000
Aurumania, a French company, offers pure bicycling bling: its Crystal Edition Gold Bike sells for $101,000 and features a gold-plated frame, spokes and wheels, along with 600 Swarovski crystals. If there remained any doubt that Aurumania is more focused on offering status symbols than a form of transport, it also sells a gold- and crystal- adorned wall rack for more than $6,000.
Aurumania Gold Bike
Price: $25,000
For those who prefer their cycling ostentation gold plated but not crystal encrusted, Aurumania also offers a Gold Bike at a lower price than its Crystal Edition. The "cheaper" cycle substitutes hand-polished aluminum for its wheels and other components, and the only crystals on the bike are a series of stones on the top tube that spell "Aurumania" in Braille.
Trek Madone 7-Diamond
Price: $75,000
In 2005, just after Lance Armstrong won his record-breaking seventh Tour de France, Trek created a Madone 5.9 bicycle (like the one pictured above) decorated with 100 white diamonds, along with seven man-made one-karat diamonds on its head badge. The one-of-a-kind bike was auctioned for charity and fetched $75,000.
Montante Luxury Gold Collection
Price: $46,000
For ladies who prefer not to drape their couture dresses over the top bar of their bicycles but still have several tens of thousands of dollars that require spending, Italian bike maker Montante sells a woman's bicycle to fit the (very large) bill. The Luxury Gold Collection bike is covered in 24-karat gold leaf, with 11,000 Swarovski crystals mounted on various components and a python leather seat, handlebars and pump included.
KGS Custom Bikes
Price: Up to $32,000
Adjust your seat, pedals and handlebars, and it's possible that your bike almost fits you. Almost. That's not good enough for Kevin Saunders, whose outfit KGS invites buyers to fly to its San Antonio, Texas, headquarters and spend three hours on a setup bike finding exactly the right measurements for their body and riding style. With custom frames built by companies like Beverly, Mass.-based Parlee, the finished product costs as much as $32,000.
Beru Factor 001
Price: $30,000
British car component-maker Beru usually outfits F1 racing systems. In this case, it applied the same technology to a carbon fiber bike. The result is a touch screen mounted on its handlebars that pulls data from dozens of sensors around the machine that monitor its components, environment and even the cyclist's body to help him or her locate and eliminate inefficiencies on the fly.
Golden Brompton Folding Bike
Price: $7,500
Although the Environmental Transportation Association--the British insurance company that created this bike--says that it's worth just $7,500, it's likely the world's most expensive folding bike. The ETA had this Brompton model painted in gold as the prize for a sweepstakes. For those looking for a more accessible high-priced folding bike, one recent model is built by Mercedes and costs $1,750.
Spyker Aeroblade
Price: $12,500
When Dutch sports car maker Spyker--now owned by Saab--needed a vehicle for its racing team's pit crew to move around the track and fetch parts, it turned to bike firm Koga to build something representative of the Spyker brand. The result: A titanium frame with two carbon fiber wheels whose spokes represent the airplane propeller blades once made by the company. The back hub contains an unusual 14 internal gears. Only 50 of the bikes were made and sold for $12,500. Given the Aeroblades' rarity, they may now be worth far more.
