Exercise Anyone?????????????

I am just back from an awesome snowbike ride. We do have a group road ride planned for tonight. In the last week. We have snow biked, ridden on the road, snowshoed, Had our ice race Sunday, and also gone for a run. :D
 
You every considered Kick Biking. Saw one up close and personal a couple of weeks back...might do it with the dog, but the harness costs as much as the bike

no I can't say I have. :thinking:

you can use a harness with a bike can't you.. :thinking:
 
hmm what have I done since checking in... :thinking: I think another couple of snowshoes... one a social with others.. [not that I did not run ahead a bit].. and another when it was to nasty for riding.

We have had some cold road rides. and still a few snow rides. I found an area that still had good snow... except for the fields. I know an hour yesterday.. and 2 1/4 hours today. :D
 
My son and I will be riding bike patrol for the El Tour this year. We are only doing the 66 mile route but it will be a good workout for me since I have not done the training that I should have.

Oh, how I miss the years of my youth where I could just gather up my gear and take off for a century ride with little concern on whether I was ready or not. Well at least it is stll fun.

My wife and I continue to work out quite regularly. I just got "tired" of being the only one posting..most of the time :thinking: :roll:

I rarely take a day off.. doing 1 - 3 workouts a day. We did a couple hour, group trail run in the snow last night. Today a mountain bike ride.. also in the snow.

A couple of my cousins competed in one earlier this year. They loved it, but the training (and competition) were rough. Good luck!
 
I'm looking for an elliptical machine. Any tips on the best place to get one? I want to look good in a bikini, :LOL: or at least look good for Tear events next summer. Actually I just want to get healthy.
 
Craigslist in February ;)
Seriously though, local 2nd hand listings are usually cheap and plentiful.

How nice an elliptical ?

I work at a bike shop that also sells fitness equipment. We sell nice stuff. Department stores.. and chains like Dick's sporting goods [I don't know if they are a national chain or regional chain, sell the stuff also. There stuff is not nearly as nice.
Do you plan on using it? Do you want to have someone who can do repairs on it, if and when it needs it?
 
Thanks guys. I saw a nice one at sports authority since I have a 100 dollar gift card thought I would use it for some of the cost. I have heard good things about elliptical machines. Not too sure how complicated repairs would be on one of them. Guess It would depend on what broke. Computer repair might be the toughest. Or do they just replace components?
 
An Elliptical is a good option. We will have people come in and ask what is the best machine [type of machine] our answer? "The one you will use" Bikes, [upright and recumbent] treadmills, ellipticals, rowers, all can give you a great workout. There are of course differences.. but what do you like to do?

Try out different Ellipticals. The strides vary from model to model. You may find one more to your liking than others.

As far as service.. the more important thing is parts.. are parts available.. and how easily available.
 
I guess I'll stick with my recumbent bike for a while and grab a good deal on an elliptical later. Yeah, I worry about getting parts. Seems like EVERYTHING is disposable these days. Thanks for the great info.

I did not mean to talk you out of it.

The one you are looking at.. I don't know if parts are available or not. I just suggesting things you might want to look into. The stuff we sell, parts are available. We handle any warranties. We do repairs and maintenance as required or desired. On some product you the consumer have to try and get parts directly from the manufacturer [sometimes a big pain] and any warranty work might be done by an outside 3rd party. There are a wide range of of support out there.. from very very good.. to almost nil.
 
Was gonna do a quick...or rather a short run because I'm in no ways quick, run today but my glutes and legs are sore. I was having back spasms last week and took it easy all week. Yesterday was the test to see how it is, I did power cleans and jerks at a much lower weight than I normally do. I have to get back to my run training since I'm doing a zombie run in a couple weeks. It's like a mudder with zombies chasing you.
