Running everyday is good exercise but it is extremely hard on many parts of your body. The constant impact of your feet on concrete reverberates through your ankles an on up through the knees and legs. Over time, jogging can end up being detrimental and that is one of the reasons for the surge in popularity of elliptical machines.
Health clubs have realized how much people like ellipticals and there are usually as many of them now as there are treadmills. An elliptical machine gives you much the same workout as running but with a smooth gliding motion instead of the hard pounding you get while running. Your legs and thighs all get a great workout and your heart gets the aerobic exercise it needs too.
Unfortunately, elliptical machines are quite expensive and you have to pay in the $3000 to $5000 range to get a really good one. The bright side is though, that these machines will be health club quality and might last as long as the rest of your life.
Anyone looking to buy an elliptical machine would do best to do some research first. When you go into a store that sells them, they will all be lined up one after another and it will become hard to differentiate between all the small differences they have. If you do some research before you go in, you will at least have a starting point from which to make a decision.
When you try out the machines, you will be able to notice a big difference between ones that costs $1000 and ones that costs $3000 to $5000. The cheaper ones will feel just that: cheaper. They will not feel as solid under you and will be lighter as well. The more expensive ellipticals will give you a real solid feel with a fluid motion unmatched by the less expensive models. Add to that the more advanced controls and options and you have a machine that might last you the rest of your life.
Depending on what you have to spend, your choice will be whether you think the more solid feel and the added options are worth the higher price. In the end though, all elliptical machines do basically the same thing and give you the same workout. The added price is really only necessary for the quality of the machine and how long it will last. When you get on the cheaper machines and then switch to a more expensive model, you will be able to feel the difference in quality and that will likely translate into how long the machine will last before it breaks down.
