Yeah I can't stand stationar...Nice story Kenny. Yeah I can't stand stationary bikes either. I've got a set of rollers that I sometimes spin my road bike wheels on but even that I really don't like for all the reasons you mention.<br /><br />I have a good gym quality elliptical trainer that I actually use 30-45 min four times a week in the off season. I do enjoy the workout but it can be brutal if I run intervals or crank up the resistance. It's not a bike and gets my upper body into the action. On board electronics monitor watts, calories burned, distance, heartrate based on input physical data so that part of it is pretty cool. I have speakers and an amp and a dvd screen so I can listen to my tunes while I "spin" away. <br /><br />It's the cross training aspect that I think is really good about the elliptical. All the cardio of running but no impact. I've been using it for a couple years now and I think that because its not a bike is why I seem to keep using it. Like you when I ride I want to go somewhere and see stuff.recumbent conspiracy theoristhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06534820082655384780noreply@blogger.com
