Relying on others for motivation/ support
I have wanted to loose weight for awhile now. A few years ago I lost 40 lbs because a friend of mine "forced" me to work out.

Resistance vs time
I just bought an elliptical and I am trying to figure out what is going to help me tone the best. Higher resistences for less time (because I can't breath after a little while :) or longer time with a lower resistance.
