First of all, Zwick, I don't know if you've ever noticed...but you know those things with vaginas? You ever notice how they're the ONLY ONES ON THE ELLIPTICAL? I mean, EVER? I have never, in my life, seen a red-blooded male on those things. I could get caught fucking a stable boy tomorrow, and I'd be less ashamed than if somebody leaked pictures of me on an elliptical.

Then, to get on here and start whining about results and shit? What did this turn into during NBA season? Jenny Craig Weight Watcher's where insecure white gurlz like you come to complain and whine about their insecurities and their self-doubt? Get that weak shit out of here, you Massillon tramp.

I never claimed I was a tough-guy, SQ. But, I'll tell you this much--I ain't gettin knocked out in no bar fight because my Marionaire spider-sense would kick in before a punch was ever thrown. I'm never in a position to ever get snuck. I've seen my friends make a living on suckers like that, and I'm definitely many things, but a sucker is not one of them. I just clown people for being clowns. If I was threatening to beat people up (as you've threatened to do to me in the past) and things like that--then I'd be an internet tough guy. And even if I was an internet tough guy, I wouldn't wear white sun-glasses or put gel into my hair. I also wouldn't be in a tanning bed, nor would I indulge in steroids.

The elliptical, I'm sorry, that just deserves to be clowned into the ground. I thought your testicles were supposed to rupture if you ever got on one of those, because clearly, you would never have use for them again. It's just something I assumed was natural male instinct.

As we get older, yeah, cardio plays a major factor. I'd still do plyometrics or some other form of cardio before I'd run distance.

ccrunner609;377426 wrote: Running at any given pace burns about 100 calories per mile ran. On an elipitical machine that basically takes all the resistance away from moving your body weight along at any given pace is NEVER going to burn more calories then running against gravity.

2.2 miles on an eliptical machine might burn 150 calories at most.

So what you're telling me is that my heart rate, breathing rate and level of exertion has nothing to do with the amount of calories I burn? LOL, and you're a gym teacher? You do realize that ellipticals have the option to increase resistance right? And last I check I wasn't working out in a vacuum; gravity has the same effects on me when I'm on the elliptical as it does on any other piece of equipment.
