Weight Loss - Weightloss

Question: Which piece of equipment is better in terms of weight loss?

An exercise bike or an cross trainer/elliptical. I prefer to use the bike because its not so tiring but i feel like i might lose more weight using an X-trainer? oh and it would definitely be in conjunction with a healthy balanced diet!

I would say an exersise bike because its more for weight loss. an x-trainer is for building muscles and getting more body strenghth in your legs and arms.

Cross trainer is good provided you add moderate resistance, jogging however will often burn off more calories, depending on incline and speed, so I might argue for a motorised treadmill.
