I really need to start an exercise program..
I just have no idea what I would like to do.
I did walking and running in place today..
( raining out )

What is everyone's exercise of choice..

BTW.. I would love to join curves but we do not have one near us...

Does anyone out there use the Gazelle?

Thanks...

Yeah I have a gazelle and I try and use it every day for at least 20 min. I like it and it seems to be working. I have the one that folds up and I think it works as good as the more expensive ones. The only thing that is a problem with me is trying to find the right shoes to wear so my feet don't hurt (I am prone to getting ingrown toenails).

Hello there and welcome to the board. I am also exercise challenged and am struggling to stick to an exercise program.


Because I am still starting out, I do cardio 3x a week. I either walk (sneak out from work), or use my stationary bike. The choice depends on the day (weather, if my son's sleeping,etc). I am trying to work up to 30 minutes per session, but sometimes it is only 15-20 minutes. But I applaud myself for any effort I make because I am trying to establish a habit first.


I will also like to own some exercise videos, but I will wait until I establish my 3x a week first.

Walking is the GREATEST. If you can't get outside I'd recommend Leslie Sansone.

She makes walking fun!
