Treadmill features a flat machine belt that mimics running on a stable surface, some have electric motors and some can move the belt up and down to act like your on a hill. Elliptical is a ski like feature that acts like your on skis. You put your feet inside foot holds that make your legs go back and forth in a scissor fashion. Both are great for exercise but it all depends on what your preference is. Hope this helps.

What is the difference between elliptical vs. treadmill in terms of workout?

An elliptical machine will include arm movements as part of the workout and has a lower impact on knees and bones. Treadmills will not require arm movement and will lead to a higher impact workout. Treadmills are more useful for training to run outdoors and flexible with different types of workouts to choose. An elliptical will use more muscles groups.

Well, if you're jogging on the treadmill I don't see a different, other than maybe the impact on your knees. If you walk on the treadmill its not as good as jogging, but that is simply because its walking vs. jogging, not treadmill vs. another environment.
