Hi Margaret! I have a question. Instead of investing in an expensive elliptical trainer for home. What do you think about using a vertical climbing exercise machine such as the Maxiclimber XL? Would that be considered a weight bearing exercise? It's kind of like stair climbing. If it's a useful exercise machine that's beneficial to building bone, then I may purchase it in the future. So, what do you think? Maybe you could do a video about this fitness machine in the future. Please advise. Thank you.
