for the user. Apart from this wind resistance is not there in
this method of exercising. Also research has proved that
treadmills help to burn out calories. In addition to this the
treadmill also helps you to tone each and every muscle in your
body.

Elliptical machines are mostly used for a whole body work out.
Free weights are splendid for weight training. Back pairs are
exercise equipment which is used to back up the back and aid in
avoiding injury. With this equipment you loose weight without

full body exercise and helps you to tone your leg and thigh
muscles. This also gives strength to your hands. All this can be
enjoyed without much stress and strain.

Exercise Bikes are the ones with low impact but with high
performance. The workouts of this equipment affect the joints
and body parts. They are most economically priced. But they have
a very low calorie burn up.
