Default Re: buying an elliptical

Yes this is crucial for good home fitness. Get into a TV series, buy it in its entirity on DVD and watch an episode (or two) per exercise session. It really helps with the discipline. I find I exercise less when I run out of TV series to watch (I tend not to watch scheduled TV).

Once you get into the routine of it you'll find that you associate watching TV that you enjoy with doing an exercise session so the whole thing reinforces itself.

There is just one problem with this idea. When I had the stationary bike, I decided to try this. I got a season of The Sopranos, and watched an episode while doing the bike. That part was fine. Then I moved to the couch and watched 6 more episodes. Doh! [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
