It has to be the step machine, it kills me every time! What about you guys, which piece of equipment gets you all hot and bothered?

    It's great for my thighs, but I HATE using the thigh machine when others are in the gym...especially since ours is facing a mirror...I don't need to watch myself spreading my da.mn legs!

    The stair climber/stepper. The one where you're on two steps that slide up and down as you lift your legs. KILLS my thighs so I use it when I'm really trying to beat them into submission.

    I love being hot & bothered on the "around the world" setting on the elliptical, level 10... talk about dripping sweat. Kills my bum! But seriously, the ab machine & I are not on speaking terms since yesterday....:grumble:
