Okay, I'm thinking about buying a stationary bike or treadmill. I had a bike once and ended up getting rid of it because it just sat there and I hated looking at it.


What exercise equipment have you all invested money in? Was it worth it? What are your recommendations and why?

Wow Sabrina! You sure must be an expert. Thanks so much for taking the time to give me the run down very helpful. I think the hardest part about making the purchase is fitting it in to your lifestlye.

Hi Gretchen

Your so right but with any major change remember to just take baby steps and you'll do great.

Welcome aboard.

Funny that you mention elliptical! I just got one on E-Bay, great deal, and I LOVE it! It's down in the family room, and I use it while watching Desperate Housewives and Golden Girls episodes on TiVo! Worth the $$, and it doesn't hurt my bad knees!

I have a treadmill, a bike, a Body by Jake and a flat bench to do weights on.

I love my bike, it's a recumbant bike I got on www.proform.com and they delivered right into my apartment and let me pay 40 bucks a month.

I don't use any right now because I don't have a tv in that room and sitting on the bike and watching the walls just doesn't do it for me, but before I would do 30 mins on treadmill and then another 30 on the bike while I watched my soap operas. Made the time fly.
