Elliptical exercise equipment is a category of cardiovascular exercise machines that is growing faster than any other type. Most gyms are stocking these up like crazy for their members to use in their workouts. I don't remember seeing elliptical trainers 10 years ago, and my gym only recently got some. But other gyms I've visited had a whole room of them. They are very popular and offer a great workout.
They're sometimes called elliptical cross trainers, probably because they work out just about every muscle group, unlike exercise bikes or rowers. But they aren't just high-priced gym equipment. There are now a lot of home models of elliptical exercise equipment that don't take up a lot of space, plus are a lot cheaper than the gym models. I've seen them at Sears as well as regular sports equipment stores. I even saw one on sale for $200 recently. That's a lot cheaper than you'll find a treadmill.
