Cardio Energie

whats the difference between a cross trainer and an elliptical trainer??

what is better for the joints?
what works what muscles?? I need cardio exercise and want to tone up my lower body more.

Am thinking of getting one and don’t know which is best.
Thanks
Also thinking about a gravity strider - are these any good??
or a rowing machine?? are these any good? I went on one years ago and it didn’t seem to do anything for me - maybe I hadn’t set it right though

Whenever I do any kind of cardio, expecially the elliptical trainer, my toes and feet go numb and hurt. I have tried several different shoes (wide, tight, running, cross-trainers) and nothing seems to help. Does this happen to anyone else, and/or does anyone know why this is happening? I haven’t gone to my doc, but I will as it is really starting to concern me.

I’m about to start my personal workout plan for a whole year.

I’ve divided it into Cardio and Body Building.
By Cardio I aim for burning fats and being able to run for a long time…

I’m currently confused on whether to buy a treadmill, or an “elliptical cross trainer”?
