    I have owned a Total Gym for a long time and use it every day (well-just about) - no excuses; convenient; don't have to drive to a gym or continue to pay membership fees. They are not cheap but pay for themselves very quickly.

    If I was to buy one machine, it'd be an Arctrainer by Cybex.

    Walking around town has been immensely helpful for me, and it's free. You can plot routes (and see how far they are) at sites like Mapmyrun, and I think Runkeeper also.

    You could also check the local YMCA or your city/county recreation centers. They don't advertise, but mine has a fitness center for $115/year (or $16/mo) - cheaper than any of the machines.

    There is one machine that does all the workouts - it's called your own body. Your body is your own total gym.

    While i agree, working the upper back with bodyweight is difficult without something to help. Hence my suggestion of straps of one sort or other.
