Will an elliptical machine help me in my running endurance?
am_flip asked:
i cannot go run outside because i have to babysit my brother during the day.
i cannot go run outside because i have to babysit my brother during the day.
so instead of running outside, i use the elliptical machine i have.
i started being only able to last for 20 minutes, but now i can last for 30 minutes.
i am planning on joining cross country for my freshman year, so i need to train over the summer.
if i gradually increase my endurance on the elliptical machine, will this also help me increase my endurance while running?
Thanks for all your help!

Some help. Running is a lot harder on your body because you are moving against gravity over the ground. So it will help some, but is much easier on the body than running.

well, it will help yes. but you really need to practice running…i dont run during the day either…but its because i live in florida..and its not all jolly here cuz u dont just go to the beach all the time and run and have fun if u actually LIVE here. in the mornings and afternoons its super hot…so i run at night. and its nice. so maybe u can try that…but i dont do it by myself at night..my little sister runs with me..and so does my dad…both are in better shape.
