With the big game just a couple of days away, I thought it only appropriate to look back on some of the best Super Bowl commercials from the past few years. Here are a handful of my favorites to help get you in the commercial watching mood...... Remember these?
In this digital age we live in, many of this year's Super Bowl commercials are already posted on the web. I had to share this clever Honda spot with those of you who haven't seen it yet- Ferris Bueller is back! Love it!
Now, which ones did I miss?
Leave a link to your favorite Super Bowl commercial!
I just love "The Force: Volkswagen Commercial", the kids expressions - mannerism are just priceless.

When Less is More: 4 Questions You Should Consider
One of the most common decorating decisions people tend to make too hastily is the choice to cover up their windows. Now don't get me wrong- I'm all for pretty curtains and window treatments. In addition to being a functional investment, they can bring a lot of personality, style and vivaciousness to a room. However, often we go to painstaking lengths to simply hide some of our room's greatest assets, such as intricately designed windows, natural light, and a beautiful view of the great outdoors.
via apartment therapy
So next time you're contemplating a major curtain overhaul, take a few minutes to do a thorough examination. Ask yourself the following questions before you start splurging.....
1. Will the window treatment serve an important function in this room? If it's a bathroom or bedroom and you live in close proximity to neighbors, then curtains are probably a necessity. On the other hand, you might not necessarily need or want them in a home office or kitchen.

2. Will the curtains help to achieve a design element?Are they going to complete the look of the room, or just add more clutter?

3. Will curtains upstage natural light or scenery? Is the view outside the window prettier than a window treatment itself? In many cases you'll find yourself answering yes.

4. Am I simply considering curtains because I haven't weighed all of my options?Get creative- you don't have to hang up curtains just because everyone else is doing it! What's best for you and your home?

If leaving your windows completely bare freaks you out, consider going minimal instead. There are great blinds available these days that are sleek and hardly noticeable, giving you the best of both worlds. Whatever you decide to do, try to achieve a delicate balance of natural light and decor. And now, for a little more bare window inspiration......

Andie,
Those pictures are just beautiful. I could live like that except for the bathroom. It has to have curtains. I can never feel right being naked in the bathroom with no curtains. That's just insane.

Super Bowl 2012 Popcorn Maker Giveaway!
When you think"Super Bowl", I would venture to guess one of three thoughts comes to mind:
1. YES. Can't wait to watch the game! I LOVE football and wouldn't miss the Super Bowl for anything!
2. Football game?? I don't even know what teams are playing.... It's ALL about the food for me!! (And maybe the commercials.)
3. Super Bowl?? Who cares? I won't be watching or attending any parties.
Where do you stand?
Personally, I fall under the "It's all about the snack table" category. For me, the Super Bowl is simply an excuse to get together with friends and family to chow down on delicious appetizers and finger foods. When it comes to my husband though, he's all about the game.
While it's easy to stereotype and say that men love the actual game, while women tend to prefer the menu planning, that is not necessarily always true. Case in point: my grandmother. She is one of the most avid football lovers around. You won't ever find her at the snack table- instead, she's always in the middle of the huddle around the television, cheering and yelling with the best of them. Gosh, I love that woman.
So, that brings me to our Super Bowl Giveaway. For the past couple of years we've given away TV's for the football watchers out there, but this year, I wanted to have a promotion for the foodies! We are going to give away 10 of these Popcorn Makers to help spice up your Super Bowl snack table!
To be eligible to win, simply become a blog follower if you aren't already, and leave a comment telling me what you think of the Super Bowl- Love the game? Love the food? Or, just don't care?
I'll be picking two random winners every afternoon from Monday, January 30th until Friday, February 3rd! Winners will be posted in the sidebar of the blog. One comment per person please- Good luck!!
P.S. For some tasty food ideas, check out all of the Super Bowl Recipes that were submitted last year!
I don't know how it happened to be that 2 of the same comments from me appeared, but I only did intend to leave one. Sorry, and don't know how that happened.
I hope I'm not too late for the chance to win this. I love football and I'll be watching the game this Sunday. One of my favorite snacks is POPCORN!!!! mmmmmm :). For those that need to know and don't know:
Super Bowl XLVI (Giants vs Patriots) is on Sunday, February 5, 2012, at 3:30pm PT.

I'm not a sports fan (unless my son is playing--I went to all of his games when he was growing up), but I do usually watch the Super Bowl--for the commercials if nothing else. Since I love popcorn, I would love to win the popcorn maker.
Love the food! Love popcorn! We hang out with our kids and I spend most of my time in the kitchen making scones for the navaho tacos. I always see commercials and the score. Some scones are alittle over cooked. I would love a popcorn maker. Happy SuperBowl Day or maybe lets eat now day.
Super Bowl Sunday is one of the greatest days for our family, we all get together and enjoy the game and all the good food we all make. Just love being with family and friends enjoying the game and all the funny commercials.
I love spending Superbowl with a decent sized group of friends and family with a nice spread. I haven't been able to actually host a Superbowl yet thought just due to limited seating and an inadequate TV!
Love the Super Bowl! It's like a second Christmas-getting together with close friends and family!.....Plus, I can't wait for Eli Manning to throw another "tantrum". Priceless! :)
i spend super bowl at the spearmint rhino in town because they have male entertainers that night!!! well worth the show... and i think they have the game on tv. women can multi task....
LOVE a comfy Sunday evening, hanging out with friends and talking about sports, food, family, and life. Superbowl is a great reason to get together and have fun!
My wife and I are BOT big football fans (Kinda dangerous, because we like different teams), but a good (sometimes healthy, sometimes NOT healthy!!) snack won't be turned down!!
Love socializing with friends and family, not really a fan. But I like to try out new recipes so thanks for the great recipes you posted from last year.
Not a football fan either, like the social scene and food but would rather be out in the outdoors not on the couch, if the weather is crappy I may join or attend the party and throw a few back
I would love to win for entertaining friends and movie nights HOWEVER I am not a football fan I will watch occasionally but I'm here for the party lol !!!!! The commercials are fun tho
I don't care to watch grown men run around in tight's, slapping each other on the backside, However, I'd love to watch a good movie with some kettle corn popcorn!!! Thanks for the opportunity!!!
I love watching the game and all of the excitement that in brings to atmosphere. There is only one thing better than it, and that is the friends and the family that all come over to watch it and cheer on the big game. It is almost as big as Christmas.
I don't really care for the Super Bowl, or football for that matter. I usually like Super Bowl parties because there are usually a whole smorgasbord, which is awesome. Definitely love the food at football parties.
I don't really care for football, but I have great memories tied to the Superbowl. Before my mother-in-law passed away, her and I would go shopping while the guys watched the game timing it so we returned home just in time to see who won. My husband and I have always wanted a popcorn maker and I would love to surprise him by winning one. Thank you for the great contests!
I personally like the food and parties that come with Superbowl watching. The commercials are usually entertaining as is the halftime show. The football part isn't bad either.
I love the food and the commercials and my 16 year old son is a big fan of the game and he would go crazy if we won this popcorn machine, he has wanted one forever!
Love the game, love the food. Last year had a better matchup.. Steelers & Packers. Football is football though, I love it. Throw in food, and life is good!
Was hoping the 49ers would make it to the big game. Been a fan since YA Tittle and John Brodie were quarterbacking for the Niners. Hoped Alex Smith would be another "Local Boy goes the distance". He just came up a little short. Maybe next year? Will watch the game, it just won't mean as much. Popcorn goes well with football no matter who's playing.
Love the game, Love the food and Love the commercials. I won't be watching for the game this year since I dont care about the teams playing. Will definately be watching commercials and eating!
Super Bowl Time!!! Love getting together with great friends for a great time. Super Bowl is just another time for great memories and great food!!! CAnt wait!!!
I don't care a "hoot "about Football, but try to pay attention at the Super Bowl cuz the Half-Time usually is good and I Love the commercials . I don't care who plays, and even who the players are. it's all about spending time with my husband and enjoying the parts of the game I understand. During the actual play time I play on my laptop and enjoy treats.
I was really looking forward to the game until the 49ers lost last weekend :( Maybe next year. This year I will definitely be more interested in the food and family/friends!
I love it all. I love the game, the commericials, the excuse to indulge in beer and all kinds of tasty treats. I love having a reason to invite friends over to watch the game on our big screen (from RC Willey). The only thing I don't love is that the 49ers came so close, but didn't make it all the way!
As a kid, one of the first things I'd yell while hurrying through the front door after a long day at school was, "What's for dinner, Mom?" It didn't even matter that we weren't going to be eating for another four hours or so. About 95% of the time, I was happy with her reply; there was only one response that I really dreaded hearing. "Soup".
Soup is the one dish that I consistently wrinkled my nose at growing up. I'm not sure when or how it happened, but now that I'm an adult, I find myself craving soup all the time. Especially during the cold winter months.
Did you know that it's "National Soup Month"? At least the horrible month of January has something going for it. So today, I'm going to share with you one of my favorite soup recipes that my mom found off a website years ago..... (Sorry for the lack of a photo- you'll just have to trust me on this one.)
Green Chile Chicken Stew
8 cups water 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 4 skinless chicken breast (cut into bite size pieces) 2 Bay leaves
Combine above ingredients in pan. Bring to a boil, cook for 10 minutes. Discard Bay leaves.
6 cups cubed red potatoes 1 1/2 cups chopped onions 1 cup thinly sliced carrots 2 teaspoon minced fresh cilantro 1/4 teaspoon Cumin 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt 2 teaspoons Paprika 3 cans (4.5 oz.) chopped green chilies (I add only 2 but can add the other can if you like it hotter) 1 (10 oz.) can diced tomatoes and green chilies (such as Ro-Tel) 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
Add to the chicken broth mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes until potatoes and carrots are done.
1 large can evaporated milk 2 Tablespoons cornstarch 1 lb. Velveeta cheese (cubed)
Mix cornstarch with canned milk and stir into soup mixture. Cook until almost boiling. Add Velveeta cheese and stir until melted (but don't boil). Remove from heat and Sprinkle with shredded sharp cheese for garnish.
What kind of soups have you been making this winter?
I made a delicious Ham Potato soup with all my leftovers at Christmas. It was creamy and filling.

6 Reasons I Love the iPad 2 PLUS Treadmill Winner Announced!
I'd like to introduce you to my new best friend. His name is iPad 2.....
I know, I know.... I'm a little late to jump on the "I love the iPad 2" band wagon.
But the point is, I've jumped on. And now I think everyone should!
You see, until recently, I subscribed to the philosophy that the iPad 2 was probably over-rated. What was the big deal anyway? I already had a Mac Book and an iPod touch- so what could an iPad possibly do for me that I didn't already have going on? And then my husband and I got one this past Christmas and my world has been rocked. In a very good way.
Here are the Top reasons I (a non-techie person) LOVE my iPad 2:
1. Amazing battery life. This little guy puts my Mac Book Computer to shame when it comes to battery life. No need to carry your charger around or worry about the device dying on you. We can watch several movies and use it literally for days before we need to re-charge it!
2. It's thin, light, and extremely portable. Gone are the days of monstrous, bulky, over-sized, technology that was so annoyingly impossible to lug around. This thing is so slick- I can throw it in my purse and forget it's there. Bonus! They also make really great, sleek fitting cases and magnetic covers that look amazing.
3. It's easy to use. As with all apple products, this thing is a dream to navigate around on. I wouldn't consider myself very tech savvy, but I got the hang of it after just a few minutes of playing around on it. Seriously, it's so simple, anyone could figure it out.
4. Beautiful picture! Honestly, it's stunning. Lately, we've been opting to watch a lot of our favorite shows on the iPad 2 over our TV not only for convenience, but we've determined that the picture quality is pretty comparable. Now that's saying something!
5. You've got thousands of amazing apps at your fingertips. We've only had our iPad 2 for a few weeks now, and I still feel l like we haven't even skimmed the surface as far as available apps go. There are thousands of incredible apps out there that cover everything from finding the hottest new restaurants in your area, to helping you learn how the human brain works. Lots of them are even free!
6. I use it ALL THE TIME. Whether it's listening to Pandora in the morning while I get ready for work, looking up recipes in the kitchen while I cook, watching netflix or you tube videos, catching up on the latest world news, getting exercise and nutrition tips, or just reading a book.... this thing makes my life so much easier!
For all of you iPad owners out there, what do you love about it? Also, what are some of your favorite apps?
Congrats, Aimee :( I love my Ipad2 because it is easy to use! I can surf the net, it entertains the kids when necessary, you can facetime (like skype), etc...I love the words with friends on my ipad :)
I like how easy the IPAD2 is for everyone in the house to use. Just open the cover and it is ready to go, internet, facebook, apps. I just wish we had one for everyone so there was no fighting over it.
The Pantone Institute, the leading color authority in the world, recently determined "The Color of the Year" for 2012 in fashion, home decor and design. While turquoise was the color of 2010, and honeysuckle was the rage in 2011, it looks like the color forecast for 2012 is about to get a little crazy! Introducing, the Color of 2012.......
Tangerine Tango
It looks like orange is in! So what does this mean exactly? Tangerine will most likely explode in women's fashion and makeup, home accessories (including pillows, bed spreads, throws, etc), small furniture, and even small appliances. Oh, and you can count on the fact that there will be scores of bridesmaids donning the orange hue this year.
Leatric Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute said of the 2012 pick, “Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it. Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”
While I've never considered orange one of my favorite colors, I'm loving the pop that it's giving these rooms....... I just might have an orange wall in my house by the end of 2012!

Most people have pretty strong opinions about the color orange. Usually you love it, or you hate it.
I have always LOVED orange. Once I bought an orange pair of cowboys boots from Nordstrom and had to buy an orange t-shirt so I would have something to wear them with. Orange goes with alot of other colors and is so happy!
I'm afraid I'd REBEL if my wife wanted to pant ANYTHING in our house ANY shade of orange...I once walked into a kitchen that was partially painted orange, and almost yelled 'MY EYES!! I CAN'T SEE!!'...Sorry, this is NOT something I want to see until I'm FULLY awake...
My husband's favorite color is orange so I have tried to incorporate that into our home. Turquoise and orange work well together and are a nice contrast of hot and cold so I use the paring in our master.
Craving a FREE Hawaiian Vacation? Look No Further....
No, sadly, I'm not sipping Pina Colada's on a sunny beach in Hawaii.
But you could be!
Since the holidays are officially over, it's blah yucky January, and we love our customers, RC Willey is giving away 3 Vacation packages to the lovely Koloa Landing Resort in Hawaii! Each vacation package includes airfare to Kauai, car rental, and a 6 day/7 night stay for two!
Ummmmmm, yes please?
For you eligible readers (pretty sure I'm not in the running), simply visit the Hawaiian Vacation contest page and sign up for a chance to win! The three winners will be announced on January 31st.
And now, here is a small taste of what you could be experiencing in the near future (que Hawaiian island music)......
It's January- the month of fresh beginnings! You've made your New Year's Resolutions, and this year you're more serious than ever before about following through. You've most likely thrown out all the Christmas candy, and set goals to eat healthier and spend more time at your local gym.
The only problem, is that so has EVERY SINGLE OTHER PERSON in your town. Every time you attempt to go work out at the gym, it's crowded beyond capacity with sweaty bodies, and you have to literally wait in line to even touch a machine. Sound familiar?
The stats are not good my friends. Only 75% of people with New Year's Resolutions will keep them after the first week of the year, and studies show that only about 20% of people report being "very successful" in keeping their resolutions throughout the year.
So, I'm going to try to help one of you keep your healthy workout resolutions this year. Forget fighting for a treadmill or elliptical at the gym, because I'm going to give one away to a lucky reader! Simply leave a comment (one per person) telling me if you're a treadmill or elliptical person (I'm anticipating some strong opinions here) and why you want one for your home! I'll pick a random comment on Wednesday, January 18th and the winner will have their choice of either this Pro Form 2.8HP Treadmill......
P.S. If you don't think you can wait two whole weeks to start your home fitness regimen, check out our fitness sale! There are some pretty awesome deals for those of you who are ready to invest in some home exercise equipment!
I would love to win the elliptical personal trainer. I have a serious lung illness, which really limits my ability to exercise. This would be a real blessing for me if I wont this, as I could exercise, lose weight and slowly build up my lung capacity.
I would Love either :) I currently go to the gym while my wife is busy at work. It would be wonderful if we could share in the workout at home!! thanks for the generous give-a-way!!!
Treadmill definatley:) I've been through two b/c my son is in wrestling in high school & runs a lot too. I would love to have a nicer one that can keep up with us;)
I would love an elliptical. The one here looks very nice!! I've been wanting one for sometime. I believe they give you a much better work out than a treadmill and easier on your body.
Treadmill definatley:) I've been through two b/c my son is in wrestling in high school & runs a lot too. I would love to have a nicer one that can keep up with us;)
6 years ago, I was heavily into running and would run 50+ miles on a work treadmill. I have gotten out of it since then and would really love to get back into it at home!
Before I met my wife she would go to the gym and use the elliptical and run around the track every day for afew hours. She continued this after we were married. She has always been a big fan of the elliptical because it is less strenuous on the knees and ankles. She was diagnosed with cancer last June and has had multiple surgeries and just finished her last of six chemo sessions. She is about to start six weeks of daily radiation. Through this all she has talked about how she has lost muscle mass and would like to start using the elliptical again. She would like to build back her strength and endurance and feels the elliptical would be the best way.
Before I met my husband I was always a fan of the treadmill over the elliptical, but lately I've been coming around. My biggest problem with the elliptical is staying balanced on it, but once I got used to it I found that it gives a much better work out than the treadmill! I love my zumba, but if I can't make it to that class I'll hop on the ellipitical!
I would love to win this elliptical for my wife! She has been dropping hints that she wants one and we have been trying to get in better shape. I didn't want to get one for her for Christmas, because I thought it was mean. Please drop my name in the hat to try to win the elliptical for her...and us
When the signs of age start to hit due to running on hard pavement for too many years and the Dr. says better start finding something else to do rather than running if you want to preserve your knees. It's definitely time to look for an elliptical. Winning this would be the answer to saving my knees.
I have joined several gyms in the past, but didn't last more than five months, because it's frustrating to wait for using a machine. It will be awesome if I have my own treadmill at home, I can exercise more often, and maybe I will accomplish my goal to lose 25 pounds this year, so please help me to win this treadmill, it will be so much appreciated.
Definitely treadmill for me! We are empty nesters and now my husband is starting a new job which will take him out of town 6 days a week. My job requires me to be available to GO at a moments notice 12 hours a day. Being alone and tied down to work I'm afraid if I didn't have a treadmill I would be eating my way through primetime instead of walk/run while watching my favorite shows!
Hi, I would love an elliptical or a treadmill. I am 29 y/o and have recently lost my son @ 5 months, so being depressed has helped me put on almost 100 lbs. I would love to make it to my goal weight of 160 and I know that either piece of equipment would help me get there. I am very self conscious so I do not use the gym. I prefer to work out in the privacy of my own home. Thanks!!
Ican't wait to win one of these wonderful treadmill. Ihave some extra fat that I want take off. I don't have any exercises equipment in home and after 8 years as truck driver I need some exercise to come back to life.
Thank you!!
I would love to win any piece of workout equipment. I am 29 y/o and just recently lost my baby @ 5 months and I have been depressed about it and put on almost 30 lbs. An in home machine would be awesome because I am very self conscious about my figure, so going to the gym is not an option for me. I have tried all the fad diets, changed my sleep pattern, and so far nothing has worked. An in home machine that I could use all the time, would definitely help me get to my goal weight of 150. I'm almost 270 right now. Thanks!!!!!
I can't decide, but probably the treadmill. We had an unexpected new years event. My husband had a heart attack. For the first time in his life he needs to exercisde. The weather is cold and we usually have inversions which make it impossible to walk outside. I have always wanted a treadmill but have had so little money that we ciuld never afford one. Please give us a great gift for the new year and pick us.
Hi, I would love to win the treadmil, I have a baby that is 4 months old, and I had 2 other pregnancies including a twin pregancy, so I NEED to excercise, not only to get back in shape, but to have a time to my self once a day. We don't have any excercise equipment at our house, and my husband is on the Air Force so he needs to excercise everyday to keep the weight down, so this would help us a lot! Thank you.
Hi, I would love to win a treadmill, we dont have any excercise equipment at my house, and after having 4 babys, including twins, I NEED to excercise, not only to get back in shape, but to have a time just for me once a day! Thank you.
The Elliptical would be my pick - I have a wedding to go to in June and need to start working out now if I;m going to look my best. I find having a target date and event to work towards to be great motivation. If I won this, it would be a great boost!
I would love to win the treadmill. I find ellipticals hurt my knees and hips, but I love to walk outside, but New England winters make that just about impossible, so a treadmill would be used extensively, especially in the cold season. A treadmill would also help me acheive my weight loss goal by losing those last 10 stubborn pounds!

My husband and I just bought a house with an empty basement and plans for an exercise room. We both prefer a treadmill, but it is waay down the line of things to buy. We could both definately use a workout right now!
I would choose the elliptical since we have a treadmill already, we have a home gym and thats the one thing we really want and dont have and can not afford since my mom is currently laid off and not working.
I would choose the Treadmillbecause I dont have to coordination for the Elliptical. Also I think it is easier to do other things while on the treadmill like reading so I can go longer.
I would choose the treadmill because I like having the freedom to do whatever I want with my arms. I can grip the treadmill, I can pump them at my sides as I work up a sweat or I can increase my aerobic activity by scissoring them over my head. I would really love to have one in my home.
I'd love a treadmill. My goal is to complete a 5k this year. I have a lot of weight to lose (100+), but I am focusing on 2 things right now. Exercise and more water. I want to make healthy changes so I can be around a long time for my two little ones.

I am definitely a treadmill guy. I was a cross country and track runner in both high school and college and running is all I know. Now that I have twin daughters it has been harder to get outside to run, so having a treadmill in the house would totally solve my problem. I owned an elliptical in the past, but I just never felt real comfortable on it. Go treadmill!!! It would sure be nice to lose the 20 pounds that I have gained during the past year :)

I would love the treadmill: My goal this year isn't so much to loose weight but just to get healthier, feel healthier and have more energy. I became an empty nester in 2011 and really need to take the chance to better myself. So far I have done well with increasing my exercise but having a treadmill at home would make it much more convenient.
I would love to have the eiliptcal trainer. I believe it would help me with my resolution to lose the weight and maintain a healthy weight in the future. I have the perfect spot to give a elliptical trainer a new home, with all the love and attention it needs.
I would choose the elliptical, my wife had a full knee replacement and could use that as it would be alot easier on here knee, less impact. She wants to buy one but we cannot afford it since she has been laid off from her job since June,times are tough right now

I would really like to have the treadmill. I have diabetes and working out on the treadmill will help me keep my sugar level down. Would be great for my whole family. Thank you
Running within the comfort of your own home is the best morning jo! Why waste gas going to the gym or run outside in the cold!! Pro-Form is great equipment.
The treadmill is the way to go. I enjoy running and am currently training for a marathon. A treadmill would help with training, especially in this cold weather!
I would have to classify myself as a treadmill person. My husband is an avid runner and I enjoy jogging and walking uphill. It is also nice to read while walking on the treadmill. The elliptical is fun, but it never seems as though you are getting as good of a workout as the treadmill.
I am definitely a treadmill person. I used one all the time in high school when I was on the track and wrestling teams. I would love to win this one from RC Wiley because I am overweight and have diabetes. My wife and I both need to get in shape and we can't go to the gym because I am visually impaired and have been out work for 4 years now. So, my wife and I and our 4 sons our living solely off of SSI checks. And we need to be at home because our 4 boys are all on the autism spectrum and need constant supervision and care. My wife and I are both having health issues due to our weight and we want to be around a long time for our children so I hope and pray that I win this treadmill for our family. Thanks so much.
I am 53 and have a few health problems. A treadmill would make it so much easier for me to excersize instead of always waiting for the weather to coopaerate. I would really love to win one!!!!
I would love love an elliptical. I think it would be better than the treadmill because it is more versatile although both are great! I am a 60 year old female and right now all I do is walk to stay in shape since I am on a pension and gym memberships and equipment are much too costly for me. If I could win an elliptical that would be perfect and so much appreciated!
Both are great choices but I think I am more of a treadmill person. I would love to win this and work off not only my fudge from this season but from seasons past too lol :)
Elliptical: On an elliptical trainer that includes arm motion, a shoulder, chest, biceps and triceps workout can be incorporated simultaneous to a lower body cardiovascular workout. In addition, the upright posture on an elliptical trainer will utilize more of your core muscles, and if you go hand-free without using the railing on an indoor elliptical trainer, you can increase the balance and postural training effect
Its hard to say...............my wife runs on her treadmill everyday and loves it. I would say an elliptical is more enjoyable so i guess its a draw. Either way the best to beat the fudge is never pick it up at all. :-)
I would love an elliptical!! I have been working hard at losing some extra weight after 3 children. The elliptical would be perfect for me as I am a stay at home mom, and I could exercise while still being at home with my children. What could be better?! What an AWESOME deal!!
My wife told me I had to say we would like the elliptical, and like a good husband I am listening. I actually prefer the treadmill, but the older I get the more concerned I am about putting all the stress and strain on my joints. Any exercise is good in my opinion, and as a truck driver that works only nights I don't really find the time to get to the gym, and do the strength training or aerobic exercise that I need to. Anything to help my wife loose the weight that she is working hard at doing would be a big help. Thanks for putting this deal together, and the elliptical really does look sweet too!!
If you really don't want it, I could take the elliptical off of your hands. In fact, I have just the place for it in my exercise/cold storage room. That industrial shade of gray will perfectly match the grain of my cement. I could easily pick up some turquoise hand towels for a splash of accent color.
I must admit that I have already failed on my "exercise everyday" New Years resolution. I can give you several excuses, all of them good ones. But instead I am re-committing to getting healthy and getting moving. The contemporary style elliptical would be just the motivator I need.
We would love the treadmill! I would use it to walk / jog on days it's not too nice outside. It would also work for my kids (4 of them!) to burn off some extra energy on those same not-so-nice days. The other great thing about a treadmill - gives you a feeling of doing something healthy - while you get to watch TV!
The elliptical is what I would choose. I've heard they are the best on your joints. I'd LOVE it to have it for my home so that I can get in shape and lose weight.
Too much fudge??? Too much of everything :) These are both amazing, I would be pleased to have either one. I had reconstructive surgery on my ankle because I broke it helping a friend move, so i am just happy to be walking. NOW it's time to exercise and keep function in my foot! Such wonderful giveaways!
My sister wants me to walk a 5k while she runs it, this would sure help me to be able to do it!!
I am in very need of just furniture. I have an 25 yr. older lazy boy that I got when my mother passed away. I have entered all the contest but I guess I am not just that lucky. I never won anything in my life. I live on a level of income that is cinsidered proverty level I am disable but I can still get around in my apartment. I am not old but not young either. I moved to a brand new apartment where Iam on housing and they said RC Wleeys did the one bedroom model here and then after when they are done showing it that RC Willeys will come back and get it. But if I could get it some how at a very resonable price I would love to buy it. That way you would not have to come back and get all the items in the model. I hate even writing and telling things like this cause I have always worked hard and I live alone and I am not trying to get something for noI never ask for help I do nothing nnn so this is really hard for me to even post this. And the last thing I don't want is for people to feel sorry for me. I deal with being disabled I have to . but I love your emails.
Need either machine to help with my having scoliosis and ostioporosis , also have early stages of lung disease so excercising would help me get stronger. Also would help me lose weight . Would be grateful to have either machine to help me get stronger!!
I'm a treadmill person! Why do I want one for my home? Because I have three children--two who are in school and one who is my shadow. I would love to be able to use the treadmill while my youngest is watching TV or playing toys or coloring. To be able to even do 10 minutes here and 10 minutes there is way more than I'm getting now. ;-)
Three words: Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. I have two young children as well. This combination, in addition to the rising cost of my local recreation center, is why I would love to have a treadmill right here in my home. Here's to a fit and trim 2012! Thank you!!
I would love to win the treadmill! I've trained for two half marathons, and one full marathon all on a treadmill at the gym. Now with four children at home (all ages 5 and under) I'd love to train for my next one at home!
I have been looking for a treadmill or eliptical for about 6 months but I have not been able to afford one. I'm on track loosing weight by eating right but I'm too embarrassed to go to the gym because I'm very overweight. I would love an eliptical!!
I like using both, the elliptical gives you a chance to do something different and the treadmill reminds me more of being outside running. I would like to have one in my home because after having six children I have gained an unhealthy amount of weight and it is really hard to go to the gym to workout because of time. If I had one in my home I could excercise almost everyday of the week.
I would love the treadmill so I can exercise on my timeline and not depend on having good weather (all though that has not been a big problem his winter). I am trying to workout on a regular basis to keep my weight off.

It would be nice 2 win.... please pick me it will help me stay on track with weight and i can't really afford to buy 1....Thank you 4 opportunity 2 win... love u guys...
I'm a police officer who has to pass a physical fitness test every year, and a treadmill would help me keep in shape so that I can pass my tests and keep my job. Thanks!
I am a senior totally committed to keeping fit. A treadmill at home would be a terrific asset. Thanks for providing this opportunity for a lucky reader to win fitness equipment. I have enjoyed your blog and shopping at RC Willey.
My husband and I both want to get fit this year. With a recent move to the Vegas area and basically starting over with our lives I think the treadmill would be a great asset to our new lives. We need to start out steady and be able to build up to that run. I would love to be able to go running with my dogs by fall of this year. Thanks for the chance.
Eliptical is the way to go for me. I have flat feet and after 5 minutes on the treadmill I'm about done. When I'm on the eliptical, It's like I'm running on air.
I love Love LOVE to run!! I try to run at least 4-5 times a week, but sometimes life gets in the way. Last year my New Years resolution was to run a half marthon...a big deal since I was not a runner. I worked hard and this newbie runner ran 2 half marathons in 2011!! I am proud of myself and would like to shoot further in 2012, with a new treadmill I could train when my kiddos were sleeping for a full marathon! Crossing fingers on this one :) Thanks for the chance!!
I would LOVE an eliptical. I like a more overall workout. A treadmill is great, but I feel like I am only working my legs. I also love the smoothness of an eliptical.
Would love the eliptical. Not so hard on the joints. My girls would love to use this just as much as I would. I would love to get my whole family more active and to become less of couch potatoes.
I've only recently began going to the gym. I have found that I absolutely love treadmills! I love just running along with my Ipod. I do however would greatly appreciate my very own at home. Being a busy wife and mother it would be ideal to have a treadmill at home! Thanks for the oppoptunity!
I use both actually. When I am preparing for a race I like to use the treadmill.
I do love the elliptical, I can get a very intense workout without putting any strain on my muscles or joints.
I enjoy the elliptical because I'm too fat to be on a treadmill. Plus the elliptical feels better on my knees and I don't have to worry about falling off.
I usually choose an elliptical because I feel that it gives me a better workout overall. The only thing I don't like about it, is that my feet go numb. I would LOVE to have one at my home, so that I can exercise and work on losing my 70 pounds while studying between classes and work. It would certainly get a lot of use!
I am an elliptical person.
When I go on a diet, I swear off soda, sweets and seconds and in 90 days I have lost exactly 12 weeks. Not sure buy maybe eating less and EXCERSICE is the key;)
Elliptical. My wife and I have been working very hard for the last year to drop some pounds. We have both lost about 80lbs and would love to be able to workout at our home and have a new way to step it up!!
I am definitely an eliptical person running is my bag so for variety an eliptical would fit nice in my regimine. You guys have great contests and I would love the chance to win! Thanks for the opportunity!
I am Definitely a Treadmill person! Thanks for the chance to win one. I love to run, but not so much outside when it is cold (yes, I am a fair weather runner). I would love a treadmill to keep me going during the cold winter months!
This past December my father lost part of his foot. He is 175 lbs over weight. I realized that I am prone to bad genetics, and the only way we can fight it is exercise. My husband and just got a membership at the gym, but my problem is I have a 3 and 2 year old, so I can only go to the gym if I have a baby sitter, or my husband is home (he works in TX a week on week off, and I live in AZ). So it'd be great to lose 100 lbs and have easier access to a treadmill or elliptical, I would savor every second of exercise at my own home!!
I am an elliptical type of girl.... After working a long hard day, it is easier to come home to exercise than to fight the traffic and crowded gyms. I prefer an elliptical bike as it is less stressful on the joints while still giving an effective work out. An elliptical bike would fit nicely into developing a home workout routine and into my 2012 goals... eat healthy, exercise, and lose 30 lbs.
I live how thin the ellipitical looks! I think it's a sign that it belongs at my house so I can get as thin as it! Both look awesome though...any excercise in the day and age of busy schedules would be great! Thank you RC Willey for keeping your customers happy and in shape!
That spacesaving elliptical looks like it's the bomb! I like using an elliptical because it gives you a great workout without stressing your joints! This is good for people like me who are 50 pounds heavier than they should be. I alternate between the treadmill and the elliptical, but definitely if I were going to get a piece of exercise equipment for my home I would get an elliptical. It's an easier machine to work out on for extended periods at lower impact.
Having a treadmill at home would not only help keep me fit, but would give me more time with my family. I leave my house each day at 5:45 am to catch a commuter bus to work, arriving at 7:00 am. I then get off the bus a little after 5:05 pm, then head to the gym on the near-by Air Force Base to run on the treadmill for a few miles before heading home for the night. I usually get home a little before 7:00 pm, after my wife and son have already had their dinner. If I had the treadmill at home, I could workout before leaving to catch the bus in the morning and be home in time for dinner with my family each night after work. A home treadmill would be AWESOME!
62 years old, Have to loose 45 LBS. No Time to go to the Gym still work full time.Would Love to have the Elliptical, Looks like it would help my Stomach
When carrying around extra weight like yours truly, the elliptical is a must. Great workout....easy on the joints. Now, once some of those pounds are shed away.....bring on the treadmill for some good old fashioned pavement(or belt) pounding! :D
I like using both when I go to the gym. I feel like they give me a good sweat and it will be nice to be able to do the workout in the privacy of my own home, which will also encourage me to exercise more often!
I would LOVE either one..... I go to my local gym whenever possible, but its not the easiest ..... I have 2 girls with Angelman syndrome so its hard to get out of the house, but I know not only myself but my girls would benefit from this, it would be amazing!
I like the Elliptical, it looks like it would be fun and give me a real workout. Most likely I would only last about 5 minutes, but I hope to get up to 10 minutes in a month or less, we will see. Thanks
We have a treadmill, and an elliptical, and love them both! Our treadmill is wearing out though, and really needs replacing, so this would be great!!! :)
I have scoliosis and osteoporosis and lung disease and need to excerise but can't walk on hard surfaces, brings on pain. So, an elliptical or a treadmill would would perfect in my life. And an added benefit would be to lose some weight! Either machine would be a great help to my health!!
I'm a tall guy and the elliptical is easier on my knees. My fellow teachers and I are doing a "Biggest Loser" competition. I'm trying to eat healthier and run for my exercise, but this would definitely help both my wife and me with our motivation of exercising. We love ellipticals, but we can't afford one as private school teachers fresh out of college!
I am training to beat Coach Pete this year and a new treadmill would be fantastic motivation! Thanks for having a great give away! I hope the winner enjoys it.

I would benefit from the treadmill do to the fact I sit in struck all day and only have the evenings for spare time to try to keep the truck driver belly off.
I would love an elliptical. I don't have any workout equipment at my home and I can't afford a gym membership and with the smog sometimes it's tough to go outside to workout. I certainly need to lose some weight after going to school and eating all the christmas goodies.
I am a treadmill guy for several reasons. With the treadmill you can adjust incline and speed, which is important in losing fat. I will set the treadmill at a 1 or 2 incline and a speed of 3.7 mph. After a 3 minute warmup I'll up the speed for 30 seconds and then go back to walking for 30 seconds. Each time I up the speed I increase it from the previous high. This continues for 20 minutes followed by a brief cool down. Only on the treadmill can I be so precise and get such great results. The treadmill is always available and so easy to use.
I would love to have a treadmill, both my husband & I need to loose for our health since we are getting on in our years. If we had one we would be more able to do our exersice. Where we live is very steep & is to hard to walk.
I am more of an elliptical person because it believe it gives a better workout. I would love one for our home because it would give us something else to do, rather than sit and watch television.
Holy crap I need to lose weight. While I am not technically obese, I look really really bad without a shirt. Since it is cold outside, going for jogs in the morning is not an option, and gym memberships are really not worth it to me as I won't have a gym sitting in front of me to remind me to exercise when I am home. Therefore a treadmill is what I need.
Either one would be amazing! But I think a treadmill would be better utilized. I'm at a stressful desk job all day long and at home with the kids all night long. I could absolutely use some workout, de-stress and move my body on the treadmill time! :)

I would very much like an Elliptical. My sister uses one and she loves it. I am very much out of shape and could really use the motivation of having the machine. Thanks a lot for the consieration.
i would love either one of these ..I am disable to work because of health issues and unable to get to the gym and am putting on the pounds from lack of actitivty this would be so perfect for me to be able to just work out in my own house...I would go buy one myself if medical bills were'nt taking up all my extra moneys...I really want to start getting in better health ......sick of being sick and fat!!!!!!
I would defiantly have to go with the treadmill. I feel like I get a much better workout vs the elliptical! I never seem to really break a sweat on the elliptical.
Dear Andie - In 2010 after only beginning to run. I injured both of my achilles tendons, perneal tendon and plantar fascia muscle by wearing the wrong type of running shoe which had been selected for me by a local running store. It has been a long recovery process over the past 18 months. I have been unable to run more than 2 miles without shooting pain in my arches. I recently under went two corrective procedures: a vein ablation surgery and plantar fascia release to repair my foot/leg injuries. I've been restricted by my doctor to walking for the 3 months and would dearly love a treadmill to help me get back my livlihood. Yours Truly, Jamie Anderson
I feel that the elliptical is the way to go for me. I feel that I get more of a workout on the elliptical versus the treadmill. Believe me, this fat chick needs a good workout. If only I dreamed of the elliptical like I do of chocolate cake :D
I like either one, but probably prefer elliptical for space purposes. Or a treadmill could fit in the garage. Either way, exercise equipment at home is wonderful!
I would love to have a tread mill. I set a goal for this year to run a 10K, a tradmill would really get me going on the right track. I enjoy using both, but think I would get more use out of the treadmill. Keeping my fingers crossed.
I would love the treadmill. It would be so nice to walk/run inside when it is freezing cold outside. I don't like to go to the gym. My gym is my home. I pop in a video and away I go...and 47 pounds went away last year!!! I did it. I lost the weight..This year it is all about maintaining. I would LOVE the treadmill but if the Elliptical would help raise my sagging bottom maybe I should get that instead. Hmmm...What do YOU suggest? ;)
I would love to have either, but prefer the eliptical. I was going to the gym regularly, as I am obese, but I quit going because a couple guys started making fun of me and destroyed every ounce of motivation I had to go. I guess the only way I will manage to loose weight is to get a machine and work out at home because I don't want to go back thru that again.

I would love either one! I'm a single mom & work full time so it's hard for me to find the time (and the money) to go to the gym. I have put on a few pounds that I would love to shed so I can stay healthy & have more energy to take care of my kids. Good luck to everyone!
I would love and need either the Elliptical or the Treadmill! I am pregnant and need to stay active throughout my pregnancy. I am also really nauseated all the time so I need to stay inside close to a bathroom. I can't run outside because It is too cold, and I am so little that it is not a safe plan to run by myself outside. I cant afford a gym membership either, so either of these would be a great plus to have and be able to use everyday to stay fit and healthy for my baby to grow strong!
Elliptical for Sure. I enjoy the full body work out that the Elliptical gives. Since I have worked really hard for the last 9 months to lose 75 lbs it has gotten to be a little hard to get everything done when you have to make time for the gym. I can't even begin to tell you how nice it would be to be able to just do my workout without having to drive all the way to the busy gym. Oh I just dream of winning this!!!
I would say Treadmill. It would be awesome to win a treadmill, even more so now that it is getting cold and can't take little kids out! Would be awesome to be able to stay in and still get a good walk or run!
Im a treadmill girl all the way. There is nothing better than putting in your headset and running all the stress out. I love the runners high. This past year I lost 35lbs and even worked out 6 of the 7 days in the gym at the resort in Cancun whil on vacation. But alas, no treadmill at home and I cannot afford a gym membership and with the holidays I put back on 10 of those pounds. Time to put on the running shoes, jam the tunes and get it back off, so a treadmill would be wonderful addition to make my home complete :)

We are a treadmill family. My wife is truly amazing and has been running outside throughout the cold to the tune of nearly 40lbs lost. I would love nothing more than to present her with a readmill so she can keep inspiring me and others with her dedication and hard work even when it is too cold and icy to pound the pavement outside.
I could use an elliptical. I have been a runner for years and had knee surgery 6 months ago. I am still recovering and the impact from running and even walking at times is just too much. I am a devout exerciser and not being able to get in my cardio without pain is killing me. I need this treadmill!!!
I would love an elliptical for my home because working and being a full time college student with a small child does not leave me much time to go to the gym!I also want to teach my daughter from an early age that fitness is important. I really hope I am the lucky person!!
Since my wife says I'm "past my prime" me knees can't take all the pounding running entails so I'm an elliptical person. This beauty will help me reach and maintain my ideal weight (whatever that is)!
Thanks!
I would love to win the Elliptical!!! I have a treadmill at home and would love to mix it up sometimes. I feel they both work awesome and work different muscles. You know when you want to lose weight you need to mix it up. I need it at home because I won't go to the gym, to many people.
I would love either one to start this year off becoming more fit & healthy to be a better example for my children! I have to say, I do think the Elliptical is easier on the knees. Fingers crossed that I win!! :)
I would love to have either one! This would be great to win to help me get in shape! Plus work out in the comfort of my home! Out of the two the one I would use the most would be the treadmill. Thanks for doing this giveaway!

Definitely an Elliptical for me!! I tend to last longer on an elliptical than a treadmill. I'm also kind of pathetic and have bad joints so the elliptical is better for me puts less pressure on the joints!! I would love to win!! : )
Definitely a treadmill person, Elliptical feels awkward and get very little results. Love the treadmill to get great results and use when its cold and bad air outside.

I would LOVE to win an elliptical! You are so right about the gym being crowded right now! I would love having my own, so I could workout as soon as I get up (so I don't put it off and then never do a workout). It would be so nice to not have to wait until the kids are at school!
Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Since I walk because of a knee replacement, I would love to workout on an elliptical machine. Need to strengthen other knee muscles. Hope my comment is chosen.
Just recently bought a stationary trainer for my wife's bike so she can get some exercise at home during the winter months. We have discussed purchasing a treadmill to go along with it but I am definitely more of an elliptical trainer kind of guy. Run on a treadmill at the gym but prefer the elliptical when it's available. Sadly, everybody else likes it as much as I do. :(

I am definitely a treadmill person. I'd love to have one in my house because it's too cold outside to exercise. Also the inversion pollution that we experience so frequently in Utah makes it hard for me to breathe.
I've got a spot downstairs already picked out for a new elliptical.
(Unfortunately it doesn't matter as I'm never lucky enough to win contests like this...)
My husband and I would love a treadmill! I like to jog for exercise but I can't do it very well outside so I don't very much but when I have used a treadmill I can jog for a while.
I have two VERY young and ACTIVE kids and a husband who spends 2 hours a day at the gym. I don't feel sexy at all anymore and HIDE myself from him. He is very active and I want to be healthy to be able to spend time with him and our beautiful kids. Diabetes runs in our family rampant and I don't want that to happen to me, but working out at a gym is just impossible right now. I don't have anytime for myself to work out. I really don't like exercising in front of people, having a way to work out at home AND where I could watch the kids and get this weight off would be PHENOMINAL! I have around 80 pounds to lose and really need a simple way to get exercise!!! PLEASE PICK ME!! TREADMILL!
We prefer treadmill work out due to our health. I have MS and sometimes I can't get out to excercise due to the weather andd/or flare ups. My husband was just diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and he needs to be motivated to start getting back on track with his health. This would be a godsend for both of us. Thank you!
My wife and I would both love the elliptical because we have bad knees. Could be the weight (hehe). Our new year resolution is to exercise more. Need to keep up the the wipper snappers.
I LOVE the Eliptical -- I used to use it every time I went to the gym, but can't afford the gym now!!! Every time I use one of those one line questionaires to see how to loose weight and get healthy, it says - DO MORE CARDIO -- I could really use the help of this piece of equiment to get myself in better shape - Thanks for the great contest!! Good luck to everyone!
After foot surgery last week I but an elliptical would be much better for traing that a treadmill. I would love to set a new personal in my first 5K this year and be able to thank RCWilley for the equipment.
I am a elliptical person person because I can't find a bra to keep my boobs in place. I have 4 kids and after each kids it took 3-4 yrs to get the weight off, but this last kid and my age 50, It's hard. My daughter nags me to exercise so I won't kick the bucket. I really want an elleiptical to do this.
I have been overweight my whole life. I am a 33 year old husband and a father of a 2 year old girl and have another little girl on the way. I have recently started my journey of weight loss and have lost a little over 20 lbs. I have another 80 lbs. or so to go. I am committed to losing the weight. I really want to be healthy and happy for my family and be around for a long time. I could really use the Treadmill to help me get through this journey and maintain after I have reached my fitness goals. This treadmill would help me out more than you would ever know! Please consider me for your choice. If you want to learn more about me and my weight loss journey, you can visit my Facebook page "Stokes Fat 2 Fit Journey". Thank you for this opportunity!!
I could so use an elliptical!!!! I can't use a treadmill because I have bad knees, but with an elliptical I can finally loose this baby weight....he's 2 1/2 now!!!
The last few years I've been trying to find something that would work for me and my knees. I really need to start a program and get healthy once again.
My family has been debating whether to get one or to just go to the gym but we live in a small town and going to the gym is hard to do when your entire work/class are all there eyeballing you as you run. With all those people watching you run you feel like a jiggly bag of bones! I love to run and when I do make it to the gym I'll run around 3-6 miles a night. I have always wanted a treadmill I just can't afford to fork out that much money right now, treadmills are SPENDY!
I have 6 babies ages 8 years to 8 months (no twins) and it has really taken it's toll on my body and as a stay at home mom, my time as well. Having a Pro Form Treadmill would really do wonders for both. My husband and I will also be celebrating our 10 year anniversary this year and it would be amazing to have finally have my shape back for the occasion and I know a Pro Form Treadmill would be an excellent way to do it.

This is just what I need -- an elliptical for my winter workouts. I am a caretaker for grandkids and my elderly mother. When do I find time for myself? PICK ME!
My husband and I would love to have this in our house so that we can both stay fit while enjoying eachothers company, and keeping an eye on our three dogs. Thank you for your consideration!

It would be great to have an elliptical in my home to exercise on. It is easy on the knees and provides a great workout for the whole body. I think it also burns more calories in less time. Thanks R C Willey.
When you need to lose more than you will end up weighing...a treadmill like this is a necessity!! My wii fit and stationary bike only help to a point and I love walking so the treadmill would be my choice!!!
My mom, who is in her 70's, walks 1 hour on her treadmill almost everyday. It finally gave out and she didn't have the money to get a new one. I gave her mine but like everyone else, don't have the money to get me one to replace the one i gave to my mom. I'd like to be able to work out at home again! Thanks!
I've never tried either. It's always been the road for me, but that's hard during Utah winters. I suppose I'd want whichever one is easiest to use while reading.
I have been waiting for the Elliptical Fairy to visit my home for about 3 years now! We just can't afford it and would so appreciated the gift to help with our health.
I like both but I think I would chose the elliptical just because it works more areas of the body. I work at Thanksgiving Point from 7 AM to 6 PM sitting down at a desk all day long so I really need to get some exercise especially at my age. This would be great in an exercise room at home.
oh I like both. I might say treadmill because then it would help me train for running races but the elliptical is easier on the knees and less noisy to do in a small house with sleeping kids.
It is so hard to get out to the gym with 2 young kids at home. It would be so nice to hop on an elliptical machine and crank up the ipod so I could at least pretend I am out of the house away from the madness, if only for an hour or so. I want and need to loose weight but between work, school for the kids, and kid's activities after school it is tough!
I had back surgery in late Oct. and am only allowed to walk or do light water aerobics by my doctor. The treadmill would be perfect to allow me to exercise back to health after 2 back surgeries in 15 months! Also, I need to lose at least 30 lbs. this year. I know SNOW is coming, so having a machine of my own in the home would be awesome. Thank you RC Willey for all the good you to for our communities.
I would love the Elliptical I feel it would be a better work out for me and believe it would burn more caleries. I walk my dog 4 miles a day but am not losing the weight that I need to. So this would truly be a blessing for me and my cholesterol. Thank you R.C. Willey for all the good you do.
I really like the treadmill. Elliptical's are a liitle harder for me due to coordination issues. Having my own would give me the ability to use it multiple times a day. For my health issues, this would be great!
I would love to have either to work out with, but due to a bad back and knees, the eliptical would be a better choice. My wife however would go with a treadmill due to limited space and the fact that she would probably use it more.
I have used both the eliptical and the treadmill, but living in a small house the treadmill would be so much better for me. I can still do aerobics and stuff to work out the other muscles, but in order to run, with the winter and small kids it's hard to go elsewhere, I really ought to go with the treadmill.
I am totally for the elliptical! I have used a treadmill in the past at my moms house and seemed to get knee and back problems. I love the elliptical that I used at the GYM but after my son was born we were unable to keep the gym membership. I could really use one to get my "before" body back. We could use this to keep the motivation alive!
I'm all for the treadmill. Both my husband and I started exercising 4 months ago. We have done great despite our 9 year old treadmill slowing dying on us. You will be in mid-run when it just stops. If you ever had that happen to you before then you know how much it hurts. We could really use a new one to keep us going!!!!
I am almost 3 weeks post op from lab band surgery that I had done in SLC, and i can start excersing in February to help with the weight loss. I Like the Eliptical machine and it would be nice since our winters in Wyoming are too cold to walk outside. I feel I deserve this!
I'm pregnant with our 2nd baby and a treadmill would be perfect to keep me walking all winter! I am not able to get out and exercise with one baby at home and this would DEFINITELY come in handy when I have 2!
Would LOVE to win this!! I am training to run in the 'LOJACK" this year and my husband would like to train with me. Unfortunately his knees aren't what they used to be. An eliptical would be ideal in enabling him to achieve this goal with me. Thanks for giving people an opportunity to win one.
I would really love to win this. It would be great to have something help me with my New Year's Resolution and start losing weight for my wedding in two years. :)
I have to say I've never tried and elliptical, but I've heard they are better for your joints. I can say however, that I've lost 75 lbs and am desperate to keep it off! I spend a lot of time in my car running my kids around and don't have the time or money for they gym. It would be a blessing to have this in my home!
Hello..I must say the Eliptical is far better for me...the use of more muscles wins...its little or no impact...ive had an injury and this would help a bunch plus i cant run because of this injury...i'd love to get my body right..thank you..Ron Moyer
I am not sure if I am a traedmill or an elipitical person, I just know I would love to own a treadmill. I have had several knee surgeries and would like to just exercise but do not see me going to the gym with my two boys in each arms. I would like to have something in my home to use. Please pick me!!!
I would love one of these treadmills not only for myself to better my workouts but for my husband who doesn't like going to the gym and really need to workout since he had a heart attack 10 years ago and is putting on weight. The cardiologist says loose weight and exercise. Also, it puts him at risk for diabetes. So, I really could use one. Thanks !
I would love, love. LOVE at treadmill. I have finally healed from several foot problems begining with a break in June of 2009. Now need to take off this extra 30 lbs and get back in shape.
Elliptical. But, either would be great!!! My wife is wanting to get back in shape after having the 4th child. It has been difficult to "get out" to even go walking. THX!!!
I would go with a treadmill, my wife and I are both committed to eating better and losing some weight this year, a treadmill would help us both with the busy schedules we have we don't have the time to go to the gym, and on our budget we really couldn't afford to either. So having either one of these machines would be a great help for both of us.
I prefer ellipticals. Since running can act up my asthma, I do not like to run too often, but riding a bike will not cause me to have breathing problems. I would love to have a new one in our home, especially since we already have one, but it is rather old and is falling apart. Also, I want to have more cardiovascular exercise this year for a healthy heart and weight.
no particular preferrence. I know for sure that they're both helpful & effective machines. i recently found out through a nutritionist consultation that i have polycystic ovaries and her recommendation is cardio exercise on a regular basis. i'm also about to give birth to twins and having one of these mavhines would be extremely helpful to get me back in shape and be in best of health.
At age 72 I need to get more exercise. There are no sidewalks in my immediate area and has semis using the road. Cannot walk safely on the road. A treadmill would solve the problem of getting more exercise safely.
I like to switch up my cardio and use both! But if I had to choose, I would say that I'm more of a treadmill girl. I LOVE the way my muscles feel after a good run!
Most definitely a treadmill. Run Run Run. I work late, so hard to get to a gym or run at night.... so having a treadmill at home would be the ultimate to work on those New Year resolutions!
I am a elliptical kind of girl, I played basketball in high school and had a knee injury and on the elliptical there is a lot less impact on my knee. I am a stay at home mom of two beautiful little girls, so we are on a limited income witch means no extra money for a gym pass. I could really use this elliptical to help me become a happy and healthy wife, mother, and WOMAN.
I would love to have a new treadmill. I walk/jog on an old pro-form that is falling apart and I'm afraid it won't last much longer. You see I really DO use the treadmill and I really DO need a new one. I promise it won't sit gathering dust. Please pick me! Thank You!
I would pick the Treadmill. I like to be able to walk normally and sometimes the arms on some ellipticals can pop you in the gut if your not careful. hahaha I would love to be able to take our walks in the winter time but with the bad air and early nights it can be difficult and dangerous. Thank you Andie!
A treadmill would look might fine where my couch is and would haunt me into working out. Not like the treadmills at the gym that I don't have to see unless I actually go to the gym.
I HAVE A 28 YEAR OLD HANDICAPPED SON WHO THE DR'S SAY WON'T LIVE ANOTHER 10 YEARS IF HE DOES'NT LOSE ALOT OF WEIGHT. HE CAN'T WALK FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME BECAUSE OF LEG PROBLEMS, SO THE ELLIPTICAL WOULD BE THE BEST FOR HIM. IT WOULD BE GREAT TO WIN FOR HIM.
I would choose the elliptical seems a bit more challenging. I am hoping to strive better in this year to come and one of my goals is to become healthier for myself and my four children. Winning this machine would be off to a great start for the year of 2012!
I would love to win an elipitical, i have bad knees and back and can't run. supposedly if i lose weight my back won't hurt as bad? but i hate going to the gym with all those skinny fit people! not to mention, i work 2 jobs and don't have time for the gym. Thanks for all the great giveaways you do!
I had a friend take my legs out from under me playing basketball 10 years ago. Since then I cannot run for more than 3 miles without feeling like my kneecap is going to break in half. When I use an elliptical it is so easy on my knees.
At age 34, I was told that I was severly obese and that my cholesterol was that of a 60 yr old, overweight man that smoked. I needed to make some drastic changes in my life. Over the past 2 1/2 years, I had lost close to 70# thru dieting, and "should" have been exercising routine. HOwever, with my hectic work schedule and that I live in a VERY rural area, my options for working out were limited as there are no fitness centers or gyms near where I live. I still have 20-30 # more that I need to lose, and increase my cardio strength so that I dont end up where my parents were, with diabetes and heart disease. I would LOVE to have an elliptical, as years of skiing and damage to my knees, keeps me from doing high impact excercise, such as running.
Elliptical all the way baby! Its so much nicer on the knees. It would be a dream come true to have one in my house, working out would be alot more convenient.
My two oldest sons proposed to their girlfriends over Christmas. Now I have a wedding in May and one in June. I need to burn off some weight with a treadmill (from my favorite furniture store - RC Willey) so I can be smoking hot by May. We have had a bad few years and can't afford to buy one ourselves. I would love a treadmill. Thanks so much !!!
I like both, but used to use a elliptical more often. I'm over 60 yrs...have gained way too much weight, and have been having trouble with my Achilles tendon. I sure would love to win one of these, since my husband has lost his job, and gym memberships are costly! I want so much to get myself healthy, so I can have more fun with my grandbabies! Thanks for the opportunity!
Well I am going to say I would LOVE to win an elliptical I have a fabulous treadmill and love it however I had a total knee replacement and am no longer allowed to run and I just dont like walking I need a little more punch, I would love an elliptical to change up my workouts and it would be gentle on my new titanium $50,000 knee lol. I could REALLY use it to take off the extra pounds I gained during my down time and get me back in some shape and stronger Im too young to be crippled this early in life.
I'm a treadmill kind of girl, I love being able to walk/jog when in the mood:) I've never actually been able to run except on a treadmill. my new years resolution is to lose weight for my wedding and to be healthy and happy for my babyboys age 1 and 2.
I ate excessably over the holidays and gained about 25 pounds in my behind, arms, and i grew a muffin top too so i need something that works all these areas so i prefer the eliptical over the treadmill because i think it works out more of your body..
I was always more about the elliptical because I thought 'just running' was boring...til I ran my first race. Now, either one, please! What a great giveaway!Thanks for the chance!
I would love a new Elliptical! My daughter is getting married in June and I need to lose at least 50 lbs. by then. I don't have a membership to a gym for the same reason you wrote about and due to having taken a cut in pay this year. I had to claim bankruptsy so I could start paying Uncle Sam some taxes on my paychecks so having the luxury of buying something new is out of the question. In the meantime, I have been doing a Zumba Dance video at home. I am too ashamed of how I look to go out. Thank you for considering my comment.
for me, elliptical is the only way to go... i've fallen off the treadmill - or should i say i've been spit out the back :) so, the elliptical is a safer way for this clutzy person to burn a few calories!
I'm 100% an elliptical person. I can feel the burn in every part of my body and I'm ALL for it! Theres nothing more motivating then feeling your goals being achieved. Cant wait until one of these bad boys is sitting in my house to help me complete my new years goal! Thanks!!

Elliptical! I feel that I get a better workout, I think I push myself more. Having an elliptical at home would allow more family time. I think the whole family would use it.
I would love to win either one.I have a 2 yr old and going to gyms mean looking for a sitter packing a bag.If I had one at my home I would use it daily.I've been running up and the stairs to get a workout. I keep checking prices but its not in our budget.I did great during the holidays and I'm going to stay focused.GOOD LUCK everyone..
I'm a treadmill kind of girl, I love being able to walk/jog when in the mood:) I've never actually been able to run except on a treadmill. my new years resolution is to lose weight for my wedding and to be healthy and happy for my babyboys age 1 and 2.
Elliptical is my choice, I have bad knees and it hurts to run on the treadmill I really need to get back into shape so I can keep up with my 13 and 15 year old children I can't stand them having more endurance than me I will turn 38 the day before you choose a winner so this would be a great birthday present and to close this deal we have bought every peice of furniture in our house from RC Willey and Love your store:)
I'm all for the treadmill. Both my husband and I started exercising 4 months ago. We have done great despite our 9 year old treadmill slowing dying on us. You will be in mid-run when it just stops. If you ever had that happen to you before then you know how much it hurts. We could really use a new one to keep us going!!!!
I could sure use the elliptical. Went to a new Doc today for help for a very bad back. I have to exercise but must do it in very short increments. This would be a godsend!
I would say I am a treadmill person. The elliptical for me is just way too hard. When something is too hard to do I usually quit it. Which is quite bad for my health. Starting last October I balanced my diet and started eating better. I have already lost 30lbs but need to lose more to get out of the obese range. If I win a treadmill that would help my family out immensely. Good luck everyone!
Elliptical!!!!!! My favorite form of exercise! So tired of waiting at the gym to get on one!! Would absolutely LOVE to have one at home! Would make all of my weight loss dreams come TRUE!
I'm all for the treadmill, they have always seemed to give me the best results. I just had a baby and feel sad that I'm packing the extra baby weight, however, with a new baby and unpredictable schedule it's hard to make it to the gym. This treadmill would allow me to stay home and exercise when the opportunity presents itself.
I am getting married March 31st of this year and am trying sooooo hard to get to the gym. I want to wow my man in my wedding gown. It is difficult working full time, having busy twin boys, and taking care of my parents. I feel so much better when I can consistently work out. It would be wonderful to have an Eliptical machine or treadmill. I would use and appreciate either. I love RC Willey. Your customer service and products are fabulous!! Thank you :)!
I've never used an elliptical so I would have to go with Treadmill. I've changed my eating habits for the better over the last year and haven't seen weight loss. My doctor says exercise will help especially walking. A treadmill would be great since it would give me something to hold on too. Thank you for this opportunity.
Two years ago I married the love of my life, unfortunately for my previously amazing body, she's a chef. While I am grateful for her formal chef training, but I need to be able to work out at home to balance things. The elliptical would sure make that happen.
My wife has been wanting a treadmill for some time now. And keeps bugging me to get her one. With 4 young kids at home and me hardly ever home to take care of the kids so she can get away. It is hard for her to get out and get the excercise she would like to get.
I work at the hospital here in Reno... I am on my feet all day and I still can't control my weight and I still can't find time to go to the gym and work out! This would be great to have in my home to use at 8PM or 5AM whenever work allows!
Treadmill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been wanting one of these for a while!! I have a love/hate relationship with running but when I run I always feel so much better about life! I have four kids and a very busy husband so it makes it really hard to get to the gym. It's cold outside and it's even harder to go for a run when I've got little ones here with me that I have to watch. I would absolutly LOVE a treadmill. PICK ME!!!
damn my husband had heart bypass in september had all sorts of problems,(pulmanary embl, chest not healing, kidney failure), he really could use to help to recoupe, and could really use one of these1
Being disabled doesn't mean I don't pound the lbs. ha ha!!! It just means I'm not able to get to a gym as easy to excercise. I really could use a treadmill to do my excercises to get rid of my excess weight. PLEASE RC WILLEY!!!
Today, I was told I had 1 of 2 choices...either to drop my 400+ sugar level by losing weight or I would be taking medicine for most of my life. I feel anybody who has issues like this deserves some assistance and not just me. I didn't know how bad it was... I thought it would never happen to me. Yes, I love to win either one but the eliptycal would be the way to go for me. Kudos to RC Willey!
I would really love an eliptical trainer. I work at a job where I am able to help a whole lot of people in need, but I am sitting @ a desk &/or on the phone all day. It would sure be nice to be able to help myself get back into shape & get some much needed & overdue excercise. Thanks for the opportunity for at least the hope to be able to help myself, if only just this once.
Over the last several years I have lost my mother, brother and sister. I gained some weight... ok alot of weight. I would for sure love to have the Elliptical in my home. I would love to be back in shape and lose some weight. It would be my personal goal. "Got my fingers crossed I get picked"!
i would definately chose a treadmill! this will help keep me motivated to loose weight during the cold months when i don't walk/go jogging outside!
thanks for the great giveaway!
I love the elliptical! I used to run on the treadmill and my knees and hips always seemed to hurt when I was done. But when I would use the elliptical I could stay on it a lot longer without my joints hurting. If I won it would be such a dream come true. This last year has been so hard. I became a single, full time working mom after being married for 15 years and so I am not able to go to the gym since I work 10-12 hours a day and I don't feel right about leaving my 3 children longer to go to the gym but really want to get back into shape. Winning this would be a dream come true!!!
This would be for me but mostly for my husband so he can get back in shape. He wants to sooo bad...his goal is to get back to our newlywed stage. How sweet is that!! That is why I want a treadmill!
I love running. The elliptical gives a great workout but I always feel better after a good run. Running helps me relieve stress and just makes me a happier person.
I'd love the treadmill. I use one in a small fitness room at work. Not so fond of the elliptical. It feels like cheating compared to a treadmill to me. I had foot surgery in December and can't get back on for 2 more weeks, so the timing is PERFECT! Today I had lunch at Burger King and my mother forced me to Chuck A Rama for dinner because she had a sr. citizen coupon. I NEED HELP!!!
I would be so happy with either! Both machines will help me reach my goal to be healthier and at the same time not have to leave my 4 small children in a day care setting to reach that goal!
I sure could use one of these exercise machines. I had a minor stroke in October and heart surgery in December. I'm supposed to get aerobic exercise several times a week. This would make it much easier on me than walking outside, risking a fall on the ice (if we get any this year).
I would LOVE a tredmill. I am starting to train for a triathlon and want to be able to run at home so I can keep an eye on my daughter at the same time! I have been searching on KSL forever but can't find one that I can afford. It would be awesome to win one!
I just spent my whole Christmas break racing my 2 yr old niece and she pretty much beat me every time! I could use a treadmill to get in shape so I don't have to "pretend" I let a 2 yr old beat me anymore!
I have enjoyed using a treadmill but have never tried an elliptical machine. I'd love either one. I had a physical yesterday and learned many scary things so exercise is definitely going to HAVE to be a bigger part of my life. To win one of these would help incredibly to achieve my resolution of staying alive 1 more year!
I am definately a treadmill girl. I have used an old one from my mother in laws basement to lose 20 lbs in the last eight weeks and love it! I would love one that doesn't pull to one side so I can continue on taking care of me and my body. I feel great when I run or walk on the treadmill!!
I had a treadmill, but was recently diagnosed with RA. The rheumatologist doesn't want me to use the treadmill anymore because of the impact on my joints (knees in particular), so I would opt for the elliptical. I am a full-time student and also work, so my schedule is pretty crazy. I love being able to work out at my convenience at home.
I am a little "older" and have alittle trouble with my knees because I had polio as a child....sometimes I have trouble walking outside--if the ground is uneven, or not paved, etc.....having an indoor method of exercise would be fantastic for me!!
A treadmill would be fun. Its 14 miles to the next town to get to a gym of some kind where I live. I have have surgery on both knees and would be easier on them with a treadmill.
I would love either.....being "older" and having a bad knee, I've had a hard time walking outside--uneven ground, pot holes, etc really get to me!!! An inside method of exercise would be fantastic!!!
My wife will love to have eliptical ! She has been bugging and bugging ( u know the way that women like to bug). We can't afford buying one yet as she just moved to a bigger home and there is lots of space but not lots.of $!
Please pick me so this "bugging" can end!
Signs "the patience husband"
tREADmILL FOR ME PLEASE WOULD REALLY HELP WITH NEW YEAR NEW LIFESTYLE RESOLUTIONS AND HEALTHY EXERCISE LIKE TO WORK OUT AT HOME NOT A GYM
WANTED AN TREADMILL FOR YEARS HOPE TO WIN ONE!
I starting doing a little treadmill running after having my third child, but after my forth my knee started giving me problems :( my physical therapist suggested I get an elliptical...but leaving the listings and reviews up on the computer just didn't get through to my husband somehow???? I have been desperately wanting to get back into exercising....HELP!!!!!!!!!
Eliptical!!!!!! As a single mom of three kids with a full time job and going to school, I don't get to go to a gym. And paying for a gym pass with childcare is expensive. I could so greatly use this!!!!
I'm more of an illeptical kind of girl. It's more fun to use and works more muscles! Or so I've heard... I've been doing great with the candies and cookies but I had a baby over 10 pounds and need to lose some of this baby weight! Can't take the baby to the gym so I would love love LOVE to use it at home! I even have a spot all ready!
I'm saving up to meet the woman I love in New Hampshire this year. To afford it I've cut off all extra spending including my gym pass. I would love an elliptical to continue to get in shape for her.
I am a treadmill girl there is nothing like the feeling of jogging. I have a full time job, full time college student, and full time mother of three great kids ( one is a teenager, a nine year old, and a toddler) it is so hard for me to find tine to leave my house to hit the gym. By the time I am ready to work out; after the dinner is made, homework is completed, and kids are in bed the gym is closed! I would be so grateful and appreciative if I won this, my whole world would be impacted with joy! Please pick me!
Either would be awesome to have, but I would love to have a treadmill at home since I rarely get the opportunity to use one at the gym since almost all are in use by the time I get there. I want to start training for my first 5K and it would be awesome to be able to do it at home!
I'm saving up to meet the woman I love in New Hampshire this year. To afford it I've cut off all extra spending including my gym pass. I would love an elliptical to continue to get in shape for her.
What a great giveaway! With having 3 small children like many moms it makes it hard to get to the gym. This would be great to get off the extra baby weight and get back into shape. :)
I would LOVE the treadmill!!! I can't always get outside because it is too cold to take the little one for a run (especially in the evenings after work) and the timing is always an issue. If I had a treadmill, I would be able to avoid outside and run after he has gone to sleep.
I personally would want a elliptical. I'm a poor college student that walks up stairs a lot and by the time I get to the top of the first set of stairs, I'm out of breath. I can't keep walking up those stairs if I don't keep my exercise goal this year.
I starting doing a little treadmill running after having my third child, but after my forth my knee started giving me problems :( my physical therapist suggested I get an elliptical...but leaving the listings and reviews up on the computer just didn't get through to my husband somehow???? I have been desperately wanting to get back into exercising....HELP!!!!!!!!!
I would love a treadmill!! It would get used a lot as we have several people in our household that are working on healthy habits (exercise and nutrition) for 2012.
My hisband & I like the treadmill great cardio work out. We go to the gym and all the good treadmills are in use we would like to get back nto shape Health is very important tosee are grand chilldren grow up.
I have had terrible trouble with my back and legs being able to walk a little more often without going outside where I might fall would be wonderful I don't think I could use the elliptical I don't think I could get on it
I've found gym equipment to be very helpful in getting exercise thoughout a long cold winter. ok, i'm a fair weather jogger and it has to be about 50 degrees outside before I start hitting the street, so for a utah climate, a treadmill or eliptical are a real asset for the home! ok, I don't like driving to the gym when the roads are snowy or icy either, so I'd LOVE either of these!!
I have had 2 ankle surgeries in the last 2 years and will have problems in the future. Treadmills are too hard on my ankle, so I have had to learn to adapt. I love the elliptical now! I can push myself just as hard and burn just as many calories without the hard impact on my ankle from the treadmill!
I really hope I win! I wasn't able to walk for over a year and on crutches for that amount of time, I have got lots of energy to catch up on!!!
I personally like treadmills. I have knee injury which makes treadmills easier to use. I would love to haveome onmy hometown help keep inshape and to release some stress from a long day of teaching students and grading papers.
I have as much fun reading everyones comments as I do entering all the fabulous sweepstakes RC Willey has!! I would love either! What a great family exercise machine. Whether you are old like me and my husband (ha ha) or young fit men like my sons, everyone could benefit by exercising. No one seems to be doing enough of that! Thanks for the opportunity RC Willey!
Our family could really use the Elliptical because our rebounder is broken and we can't afford another $300 one..I have vowed to get in back to work this year as I am an out-of-work massage therapist and have lost my MOJO due to back problems...I really need to get into shape!
I don't think I could use an elliptical so the treadmill would be a great thing for me to have I can't walk a long ways at a time but short walks are good
I would love to have a treadmill. I cant get out and walk because i have two small children and where we live i dont like walking by myself or with my small children. Im not able to take them to the gym with me so it would be great to have one at home to use whenever i can would be great.
I need a treadmill because I just found out I have cardiovascular disease and I need to get healthy to stay around for my kids. I think ellipticals are just bikes without a seat.
I would really love a treadmill hubby and I are trying to workout more but can't always leave the house to excerise so a treadmill would be very helpful
Definitely a treadmill over elliptical! It's so nice to just turn up the music and run! To have a treadmil at home would be perfect for times when you can't run outside, or make it to the gym. I like being able to just walk at a slow pace or run. I think the treadmill has more options than an elliptical.
i would love to win this treadmill or the elliptical...I am overweight and have some health issues and this would give me the start i need to a healther me.....
okie doke, i'm a procrastenator I would do so well, with a treadmill staring at me to say: get to it, I would, because it would be so much easier than going to a gym, I do not seem to have the motivation to go by myself`!` So, I would so appreciate this for me, `THANKS`

I like ellipticals, but would love to have a treadmill because I think they are more versatile and I wouldn't get too bored. I need one pretty badly as I need to lose 100 pounds this year.
