elliptical vs. stationary bike?

[island eyes♥]

am buying a exersize machine off craiglist and have a choice between a stationary bike and an elliptical. i am 18/f slim but could use some toning i use to be a dancer so i have muscular legs. i want to have lean muscles no bulk. i currently have a stairstepper will using it make me bulky?

either is good, you only get bulk from lifting heavy weights. Not cardio.

Neither will give you bulk. I find elliptical easier on my knees.

Go to any local fitness place, take the free workout for looking around, try out a bike and an elliptical, see what you like.
