Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Jimmy Glass is an Alien on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 13:53:15 Depends on what you're trying to achieve. Isn't it easier and cheaper to run outside?

I'd use a treadmill to walk the dog Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Bogus Dave on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 13:56:19 I can not for the life of me understand why someone would fork out so much money for a treadmill, either to buy or to use at the gym.
Title: Re: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Frigby Daser on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 13:56:41 I think cross trainers are a waste of time. Even the most unfit of people struggle to break sweat on them. I use one to loosen up as part of a warm up but that's all I find them good for.
Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Bogus Dave on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 13:59:35 Cross trainers are pretty good for toning your rear end, but little else.
Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Saxondale on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 14:00:37 As I have a fucked knee its cross trainer all the way. And I have a fantastic ass.
Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: 4D on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 14:04:53 I want some gentle aerobic exercise from a ct or treadmill, I already have the ass kicking stuff like bench press, lat pull, curling press, punch bags and kickboxing stuff.
Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Bogus Dave on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 14:17:03 But why not just go for a jog outside and save yourself hundreds of pounds?
Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Jimmy Glass is an Alien on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 14:21:05 But why not just go for a jog outside and save yourself hundreds of pounds? Or give me the cost of the treadmill and I'll run with you :D Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: 4D on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 14:22:04 I couldn't run in public :D
Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Paolo69 on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 15:04:34 Friend of mine swears by his home treadmill so much so that i'm tempted to get one.
I'll have yours if you don't want it Brewster. :-) Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: 4D on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 15:24:50 Oi! Get in line! :)
Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Paolo69 on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 16:06:41 Sorry 4D. I forgot this was your part of the forum. :-)
Just thought I'd stick my two penneth in! Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: 4D on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 18:09:04 No worries :)
Where Bewster gone? ??? Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 19:26:16 You don't need a gym to get good exercise. In fact all you need is the Brian Harvey exercise and that will get you into shape in no time:
Let your car run in 1st or 2nd gear and jog ahead of it. It sets a good pace and is incredibly motivational. I would advise against eating too many jacket potatoes before you do this exercise though. Title: Re: Treadmill or Cross Trainer? Post by: mystical_goat on Thursday, July 19, 2012, 19:49:23 In fact all you need is the Brian Harvey exercise This reminds me... I didn't even know this happened: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/1703657.stm But met someone the other day who witnessed it, watched his scalp be taken off by a machete. Awesome. |
