I bought a elliptical machine and for some reason i thought i could just hop on and use it for a hour. I was wrong. I haven't worked out in a long time and i can only use it for about four minutes. It's disappointing.

So how long did it take you to be able to use a elliptical or a treadmill for a half hour or a hour ?

    I started with 15min, then added from there. Probably a couple weeks, but somedays I'd do more than others. Just go with your body and push yourself when it feels right.

    yeah, i started on a rowing machine (resistance 0/6) in jan. and could only do 5 minutes and was worn out, within a few weeks i was on resistance 2/6 going for a hour. you just have to get a little used to it, which should happen quite fast with some dedication, i've been doing lots of other stuff but right now i can do 30 minutes on resistance 4/6, 4 months after not making it past 5 minutes with no resistance.....keep at it, it won't take very long :)
