I have tried and conquered all three and achieved great bod when I kept to my routine. The first one I conquered was the stationary bike. The type which allows you to be on standing position (see image) instead of sitting down. This is best compared to all other types of bikes because with this one has the option to include the arms in the workout. When You include the arm, do twist some for every movement in order to work out those muscles on the hip or if you dont have muscles there yet then do so for the love handles to be worked "OUT!" 30minutes daily will do the trick.
My next finds in no order since they were both in the same gym that I went to--were the treadmill and the stepper.
I conquered the treadmill first because I finally figured out the remedy for the hindrance I experienced everytime I ran. I used to feel pain on my trapezius muscles which are in the wing-like part of our back. The solution is to run with the hands relaxed and lower than your hip. This is its most relaxed position so the back wot get stressed. Afterwards treadmill became a bore because the challenge was G O N E. still okay for cardio though. But then again swimming does it for me too without the bore.u
Next but not last is the magic stepper. The one I like is by Life Fitness because they had these different programs you can choose from, my personal favorite was the thigh toner and the next is glute sculptor. Its better than having to choose the levels manually because there is that sense of challenge and knowing you were able to complete the workout which professionals for sure have programmed into the machine.
I saw the most effect with the stepper, always a challenge never a bore. ;)
