Answers:
no!. the elliptical is far easier than actual jogging because there is no impact, it goes much slower, and it uses different muscles than jogging!. elliptical uses quadriceps mostly, while running uses the gastrocnemius!. as a long distance runner who is confined to the elliptical when afflicted with shin splints (grrr!), i can tell you that it is far different then actual running!. although it can be strenuous, the elliptical's working of different muscles versus running makes the workout radically different!. a good question!Www@Answer-Health@Com
