Chronicles of Cloe!!!!!

Question....Question.....

I have a Katrillion Club Z points, so I was looking threw the catalogue and saw on page 60 a 'elliptical machine', (you know, the one that Mandi looks sooo hot on). I was wondering if anyone has a catalogue out there, if it was a good machine or a cheap one. I didnt even know what one was til the other day, but I'm contimplating getting one. Thanks.

Cloe if you want my advice (and I guess it doesn't really matter if you want it or not cause you are going to get in anyway) is to try out the machine before you buy it. I got an eliptical because it was cheaper than gettting a treadmill and because it looked like a better workout but seriously the machine kills me. I am on it for like 5 min before my knees go all shakey and then I force myself to stay on it for another 5 to 10 depending on how much I can take. It's weird because when I bought the machine I was running so it's not like I was supper unfit or that my knees are bad and was just trying something for the first time. Some people are great at the eliptical and can just glide like a gazelle but on that machine I am just a dying sacraficial antelope waiting for the lion.

Anyway my advice is to try it first :lost1.5lbs:

Yep, the Dame is right. Check it out. My doc loves the machine and I don't like it at all. I prefer the treadmill; I guess it reminds me of life.:phanvan

Cloe....definitely go to a gym or something first to try out an elliptical before you purchase one.....(take a gym up in a free trial day or something). You either love it or hate it and it would be a shame if you were in the latter category!

Me....I love it!

At the gym, I pick the elliptical over the treadmill anytime. It took a while to get used to the eilliptical but everyday I could spend more and more time on it. I would like to own one but I keep thinking of the expensive treadmill we own that is never used. Actually that's not true, it makes a very good clothes line.

Yes, yes... careful with that. Try one first. (for several minutes!) You freaks who can last more than 5 minutes on it... AHHH!
