    oh.... you're not joking. I used to rollerblade as a kid. I would DIE now. Kinda like riding a bike, yea you never forget, but it doesn't mean it doesn't hurt like a mofo!

    Why do you hate running?

    Actually I used to hate it! Now im really getting into it. I did my first 5k last year just to challenge myself, now I'm signed up for a 10k.

    Try kickboxing at a real boxing club! Its a brutal work out.. You'll never sweat so hard in your life.

    I would rather do squats and lunges... and I hate squats and lunges....

    For cardio, I find anything that will give me a dance workout... I love, love, love to dance.

    I like running. But you can try complexes which are good for muscles and cardio.

    I hate it too! Hurts my knees and it's just...well...boring. Especially running on a treadmill. I'd much rather be on an eliptical.

    what's not to hate? You have to wear tennis shoes, I have to strap down my boobs with duct tape and tight bras so my boobies don't bounce all over the place (ok, not duct tape, but you get the point) people drive by you and see your red, sweaty face and giggling body, you run and run and run and end up where you started.... IDK I just hate it

    I don't hate it, my body does.
    Therefore it is the evilness of other machines to kill me off.
    Helps that I can't run/walk/think in a straight line so the treadmill is my enemy.

    I also hate running, even if it is on a treadmill watching a tv show or running outside.

    Therefore, I don't do it. I get my cardio in by playing tennis, going for leisurely bike rides or hiking.

    I love running, but if you want something will feel like cardio then do crossfit. You will be panting by the end, that is if you push yourself.

    I bought a bike last summer, and I love riding bike now. I'm waiting for the weather to get a bit nicer here and then I will be out and about again. :-)
