Ok, so when I go to the gym I run on the treadmill and weight machines.  I avoid the elyptical because it kills me, but i'm going to do it today for 3 minutes even though I hate it and feel like it tries to kill me i'm gonna do 3 minutes. 

I have a college class tonight to do at 7pm - 9:45pm.  I am not going to let my classes stop me from working out hard even though I am exhausted, but I upped my calories today to help out with that so we shall see how it goes.

ME vs ELYPTICAL     who will win ???????

Being an exercise wus I am  found some false courage and tried the elyptical back in December.  All I can say is congrats to you and Becca.  After my short time I decided that some things are better left to the real grown folks.  When I am able to get off the porch I will try it again.  Until then I'll try to master what I can. 
Best wishes on your success with the elyptical.  You will win.

 With  I will succeed.

I haven't quite conquered it at 3 min, but 3 min is a lot for me because that thing kills me.

WTG Lee....3 minutes is a start. My trainer talked me onto the eliptical rather than the treadmill because its actually better for the feet. It definitely takes some getting use to...keep at it.

Thanks MD.   I love running,  I have such bad knees but I still run and take my Osteo.  I am going to try for 4 minutes today.

i used to hate it too, but its better on my knees! started at 10 mins and now i can stay on it for 45 min, you will win because you wont even use the treadmill any more once you get used to the elliptical!
