a dvd player with a wide assortment of videos. I have p90x, Insanity, 30 day shred, many others. It is way more interesting than getting on the same old machine every day. Every machine we've had in the past ends up collecting more dust than anything. : )0

I love my treadmill, facing the TV so I can watch movies while I run! Plus I really like the exercise video idea too!!0

I agree with the videos, but in addition to that I would choose a treadmill. It is great for days when the weather isn't great and you want to make excuses as to why you can't go for a walk/jog/run.0

Power rack with a cable pulldown attachment. Kind of like the picture above, but slightly different model.0

I have an elliptical, a rower and a treadmill, but my punching bag, skipping rope and barbell and plates get more use than any of the three.0 -
A weight rack.0

I'v had a Norditrack elliptical for about 6 years already and love it. I love that I don't have to get in my car and drive anywhere & can get on it anytime. I cancelled my gym membership because that's mainly why I went was to use their elliptical. I have invested in workout videos & have weights & add'l equipment to continue getting fit. I had a treadmill but sold it at a garage sale because I wasn't using it, didn't have room for it.0

either an elliptical or a rowing machine. wish we had the space!0

@ jay... I know, I would miss it! But if we get the house we're looking at, it's out in the country... so I just wouldn't be getting there as much!0

A fully equipped weight bench.0

Elliptical all the way!!0

Treadmill, b/c my toes fall asleep on an elliptical. But choose what you enjoy most. Also, i love my dvd collection,. Lisa Sansone, 30Ds and yoga. Best wished to you on your new house and new work out plan.0

I say treadmill....my husband says elliptical.0
-
power rack, bar, weights.0
-
anything you can do on a treadmill you can do outside on a track/road/field etc though? If you were restricting yourself to just one thing why pick something that can be replicated by the great outdoors?0

Internet & laptop/tv with HDMI compatibility. So many free workouts online with no equipment needed.0

I live in the country, so a gym membership is out of the picture. I'd suggest a tv/dvd player with some good videos recommended on MFP. I have an elliptical, set of adjustable weight dumbbells, and a multifunction weight rack and bench with barbell and plates and I don't have a lot of room in the basement. Start out small and work your way up depending on space you have. Just a set of dumbbells and you can have a great workout.
It's great getting out of bed in the morning and just going downstairs and having your own gym to crank your favorite music and have a good workout.0 -
A scale that always says "125"0
