I have decided to purchase an elliptical machine- they provide an excellent cardio workout. Yes I still belong to the gym and I intend to keep the membership so that I can strenght train. However, my trainer tells me that cardio is essential to physical fitness and to weight loss. I decided to buy my own elliptical because I always feel self conscious when I go on the treadmill, bike, or elliptical at the gym-there are people there to stare at me sweating on the elliptical and judge me based on my speed. Plus I am pretty busy, so if it's right there I will be more likely to do it while I am watching tv or reading. I found one that has all the features that the ones at the gym have, but at a really good price. To the left is a picture of the one I bought.Wednesday, September 05, 2007
Great Shape me?

See--that's why I never thought I would like to join a gym--because ppl watch you and I would only feel comfortable if the place was empty.
It actually doesn't bother me when I am using the weight machines- just when I am on the treadmill or elliptical.
