I thought this might be a fun game. List a few workout items at your house that are collecting dust that you used a few times, and realized it wasn't for you. These can even be from an infomercial.

I'll list mine:

Inflatable exercise balls ( I have 2 sizes)

Rubber resistance bands. ( I have 3 resistance levels )

    Resistance bands (3 levels)
    An elliptical - it was busted :sad: but my friend just fixed it for me so I'm looking forward to using it again.

    I'm going to add another one. I bought this device that required a 9 volt battery and would shock your stomach muscles stimulating movement. Of course the advertisement said that if I did it day in & day out, I would have 6 pack abs. I'm not sure where I put that darn thing.

    Had a bench and glider, sold it and a bunch of weights to "Play it again Sports." I currently have 1-8 pound free weights I carry around when I teach at Senior Centers.

    Most of mine is heavily used doing NROLW.

    But back in the cobwebby corners lies an ab-roller, and a thigh-master. There's a cable-weight system in the garage that's for sale, but I don't know if that counts, since it was used until I got my olympic weight set.

    Fantastic!!! Hahaha I totally had one of these about ten years ago. It developed a little crack and I literally kept getting shocked. That was not, sadly the only time infomercials got me. Pilates videos...probably went to good will, as they were VHS.

    I use every thing else!
