Gazelle
 

Anyone use one?

I am getting on from my cousin. I use my eliptical and walk daily (well, I will be, I am recouping from a hysterectomy right now). I am looking forward to switching things up when I can work out again.

I have a Gazelle, though I don't use it that often anymore. However, during my previous diet (went from 220 to 172) that was my main form of exercise. I liked it them ans still do because it doesn't stress my knees out. However, I've gotten used to running (well, walking very rapidly) on our new treadmill so I tend to feel like the Gazelle isn't doing anything because I'm not sweating much. Still, it's a nice break from the treadmill once in a while, and when I get off the machine I can definately feel it has done something.
I do remember that when I was first using it, letting go of the handlebars made a huge difference in how much effort I felt like I was putting forth. But be sure you've used it for awhile before you try this. I mentioned it to my MIL, who also had a Gazelle. She tried it and promptly fell off. No injuries, fortunately, just a bruised ego.
