I am so tired of the frequency the Peleton commercial is shown. But it does me wonder how any people lover their exercise equipment.

Re: Do you enjoy exercising?

I've never met a piece of exercise equipment that I liked.

 

However, I love power walking and Zumba dance/exercise!  I absolutely love both, but power walking is #1 for me.  I usually power walk 5 days a week, and Zumba one day a week.  But if the weather is crappy, I Zumba inside more that week.  I even power walk in the winter, just layer up more.

 

If I don't like it, I will not do it.  I loathe treadmills and ellipticals, etc.

Re: Do you enjoy exercising?

The only exercise I have ever really enjoyed was when I ice skated, swam and danced. Anything in a gymn I never really enjoyed and I no longer go to one.

I swim laps 5-6 times per week.  No machines required, and feel so much better when I'm done.  Usually 45 minutes of swimming.  Love it !!!

Re: Do you enjoy exercising?

Hate to go to the gym, but love the results.  However, an at-home piece of equipment would not work for me.  I would find too many reasons not to use it.  I have to drag myself out of bed and get to the gym.  If I don't go first thing in the morning I won't go.  

 

As far as results go, it's not just about a pretty body.  It's about a functional body.  At my age, I'm seeing more and more people falling apart, and at younger and younger ages.  

 

I also find that if I have a sedentary day, my body just starts feeling worse and worse as the day goes on.  I find myself more tired after a sedentary day than after an active day.  It's a different kind of tired.
