With many different modes of exercise available, it can be confusing to know which option works best for you. For joint-friendly, low-impact cardio, ellipticals and stair climber machines, such as the Stairmaster, can be effective options. Each machine can offer its own unique approach to achieving your fitness goals.
Minute for minute, using an elliptical machine is likely to burn more calories than walking. According to recent estimates by the Mayo Clinic, a 160-pound person using an elliptical machine for an hour would burn 365 calories. The same person walking for an hour would burn 314 calories. (If that person used a stair-stepping machine, he or she would burn 657 calories, by the Mayo calculations.) The person on the elliptical machine also would put far less stress on his or her joints during the workout.
