Any suggestions?

I live 45 minutes from a gym and have two young kids wanting daddy home. Anyone know of a good eliptical for $1,000 to $1,500?

I would look for a good used one. Many people get them thinking they will use it but get rid of them quickly.

Buy a bench, dumbbells, pull-up bar, and run. Cheaper and better.

I could recommend a coat rack for much cheaper.

Just get a clothing rod to hang your clothes. It will be cheaper and less stressful in the long run

go somewhere that resells sports equipment...the treadmills, stairmasters, etc. are almost unused when people decide to sell them.

Get a treadmill from a thrift shop
Turn outside shed into a man cave
Put treadmill in front of TV
Close doors and make it 95 degrees
Run 2 miles a day


Profit

Buy whatever is on craigslist. Typically $1000-1500 machines for $300-500.

OT is slipping. 5 years ago you would have been called a homo 20 times by now.

I'll sell you mine for $1000. I have learned that I much prefer walking jogging around my neighborhood.

Excellent choice in equipment if you're over 45 because it's much more low impact that running.




If you're under 45 than I guess that makes you a homo.
