I...I know. I was messing around.0 -
My exercise of choice is running, but I simply hate the treadmill. Even though I do it when I can't go outside, so I guess we can say it's the equipment I love to hate.
The machine that I do love and gets my heart pumping is the stepper. I burn more calories on it than when I'm running outside.0 -
The only machines I use is the Hammer Strength Incline Press and calf Raise Machine. Other then that I am just barbell and dumbbells. So with that said I guess the Hammer Strength Incline Press0

I also use the elliptical and the stationary bike. I do intervals on the treadmill, and the other day I started warming up on the stair master.
Do you have any recommendations for machines to use at the gym? What is your favorite?
