Hiya MFPers,
Aside from the usual stuff that people do at the gym (treadmills, ellipticals, steppers, etc.), what do you like to do for exercise indoors when the weather is too craptastic for outside stuff? I'm considering hitting my local REI to climb their rock wall, but would be very interested in hearing some other creative ideas from people.
Thanks for reading! Now, reply to this, then go get sweaty!

The other thing my kids keep bugging me to do is to join a winter sports league. Indoor soccer, volleyball or something like.0 -
