I have found that a stationary bike has been the easiest machine on my joints and yet burns a ton of calories and can watch movies while you cycle. Some movies even make you forget you are cycling or make you wanna amp up the speed. I recently watched Bushwick (2017) while cycling and ended up doing 9 miles in 46 minutes.

Edit: One more thing, Ellipticals tend to wanna move toward one side and youll bang the rotating foot platform slightly on its side which is ANNOYING and the cheap ellipticals ALL DO THIS. Whereas a stationary bike will remain level (especially on carpet floor) and its smooth, quieter, and you can find stationary bikes that are not that expensive.

Edit 2: Another thing, I have noticed ellipticals on the sidewalk as trash many many times in my suburbs whilst I have never seen a stationary bike on the sdiewalk as they are KEEPERS.

I've been doing these for awhile now and can confirm how effective they are, done on a daily basis. Easy to incorporate into your daily routine. Takes only minutes. I do them during a brief break from a movie using two 20lb. dumbbells. Forget about those overrated machines that just clutter your home. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XR5ujHudFTs
