you know you wanna help!

I'm thinking of asking my fiance for a new piece of equipment for my workout room (yay, I finally got my room in our new place!). All I have right now is a set of 3 lbs weights (I used for 30DS), a treadmill, yoga mat, and exercise ball. I only like fun equipment, and need to stay under 100 dollars. Here's my three I'm up in the air about:
A mini trampoline, a Gazelle, or an Ab Circle.

I'm really not targetted towards any certain goal, cause really in the long run I want to change my whole body (weight, muscle, endurance)! I think the Ab Circle looks like a lot of fun :laugh:
Thanks in advance!

    I'm not crazy about the products you suggested

    More exercise videos
    Kettle bells
    Larger weights to work larger muscles

    See my problem is that if I can't have fun with it then I won't wanna work out with it.
    Yes...I am easily amused, spinning back and fourth and being off the ground amuse me! :laugh:

    Out of those choices I'd go with the trampoline but also agree with above poster about getting more dumb bells! Good luck and have fun!

    I agree with hewwokitty.......you are the workout you don't need machines......ask for a pullup bar and some therabands...maybe ankeweights ..that way you can do legs without the big bulky equipmet....or just ask for p90x...you need water a towel and therabands or light weights then, get ready for a butt whoopin!!

    I'd invest in more weights. The adjustable ones look like the best bang for your buck :smile:

    Though from your choices, a trampoline sounds like lots of fun!

    My immediate thought was heavier weights, but if you're not going to use them then what's the point?

    So I guess the answer is the piece of equipment you are most apt to use.

    There aren't that many videos made for the trampolene. Are you doing to devise your own workout ?

    I don'tknow what an Ab circle is.

    I don't really use videos. 30DS is the only one I've ever enjoyed enough, and memorized the DVD and do it without it. So yes I probably would, lol.

    Here is the ab circle:

    And also, I was planning on getting heavier weights eventually, but weights bore me as well. I'm not looking for huge guns, so pushups and my little weights work fine for fighting flab :laugh:

    The ab circle is a joke. Get some kettlebells, some more weights, or pay me $100 (plus gas) to go to your house and make you workout.

    You can have my mini trampoline. It's collecting dust. Kids don't even like it cause it doesn't bounce high :-)

    I would get a barbell and some weights!

    a good pull-up bar would be good too! or those push-up handles so you don't **** up your wrists.
