that you ACTUALLY use??

I always hear about people who have all of this equipment in their houses but regret buying them because they end up being a clothes hanger/dust collector............

Just interested in hearing some positive stuff about exercise equipment :-)

    I have:

    *Elliptical Trainer
    *Ab King Pro
    *Rowing Machine
    *Aerobic Step
    *Set of hand weights
    *HRM
    *Rollerblades

    I love them all, I especially love doing circuits and rotating through all my equipment!

    Im saving up for a spin bike!

    Anyway better off spending my money on excercise equipment rather than fast food! :):)

    I have a recumbant bike, treadmill, total bdy weight machine and adjustable dumbells. At least two of these items get used most everyday for exercise, not clothes hangers. :)

    I use all mine. I have free weights, a balance ball and an elliptical.

    I don't use the elliptical often because I prefer to workout outside, but if it's raining or too hot or cold or I'm just in the mood, I use my elliptical.

    I waited until I'd established a regular exercise routine before spending the money on it, though. If I'd bought it before I was a regular exerciser, it probably would have turned into a clothes line.

    Dreadmill ... I use it when it's raining really hard, too snowy to run outside, too cold for my comfort, running short on time, too lazy to dress to be seen.

    It's used far more in the winter than any other season. I like having it. Sucks the excuses right out of me.

    Oh, I have exercise bikes, too. But they're pretty much dust collectors.

    I have a treadmill, elliptical ( I think I spelled that wrong), rowing maching, dumb bells, kettle bells, tons of workout DVD's and a Wii. I use the treadmill, the weights, the DVD's and the Wii. Our house is only 700 sq ft, with three big dogs, so there is no room lol. I chose the treadmill because the dogs use it to in the dead of winter, or else they drive me batty. Hopefully we will set up a gym in our garage or dungeon(basement) next summer. I honestly think the garage is bigger than the house lol.
