How Does the Elliptical Work for the Body?

Elliptical machines aerobically engage your body in a solid cardio exercise workout. An elliptical workout also provides resistance that strengthens key muscle groups so the arms and legs get a fine-tuning as well. This two-pronged effect on your body will, with regular elliptical use, reward you with a host of health benefits, both short- and long-term. Burning calories and boosting heart function is just the start.
