Treadmill ranked best cardio machine for fat loss by physiotherapist

Treadmill ranked best cardio machine for fat loss by physiotherapist

A doctor who helps people with exercise made a list of machines people can use to lose weight.

She put the machines in order from worst to best.

The air bike was at the bottom because it is very hard and better for short, fast workouts.

The rowing machine came next because using it the wrong way can hurt your back.

The stationary bike is good for beginners because it is easy on the body.

The elliptical is nice because it is gentle on the knees and can use your arms too.

The best machine on her list was the treadmill, especially for brisk walking or walking uphill.

That is because walking is natural, easy to control and you can keep doing it for a long time.

The doctor said the best machine is the one you will keep using safely and regularly.

She also said you should eat well, do strength training, and not trust the calorie numbers shown on the machines.
