    never never never use a gym machine for 5 hours.The vital element in getting fit is to gradually build up over months.If you're totally unfit, whatever your age, and you suddenly take part in vigorous exercise there will be some damage.take it slow at first and let your body tell you when to increase the effort.If it hurts your body is telling you to slow down or stop.I'm sick of seeing fat people tortured by personal trainers who should know better.Physical fitness is for life

  • Ive been using the elliptical at the gym for almost a year now. When i started i couls only do it maybe about 10-15 minutes. Now after about a year i go an hour a day, plus a two mile run on a tredmill. Started out VERY overweight at close to 365! Yikes..... I know... But now im down to 257 and still losing!

  • I got an elliptical for my b-day last month. I put it so I can watch TV while I'm on it. I can do 30 minutes. Trying to work my way up to 1 hour. Want to loose 15 pounds

  • @mrkrazy88 keep up the good work!

  • I'm a 30 year old female, and I can only do 30 mins on this machine. I'm about dead after that! I think it's actually very good considering I'm over 300 pounds.

  • Thank you very much one of the most useful videos on elliptical machines, thanks again

  • I didn't feel any burn in my system, so I just kept running and running. After about 5 hours on the elliptical machine, I just gave up and took a rest. When I got off, I felt like I was going to die. I couldn't breathe at all. I had no clue I was having a heart attack XD. So, when you're using a treadmill, don't wait to feel burn, just exercise at normal amounts.

  • I use elipticle machines and they really do work :)
