The TreadClimber

Too hot. Too humid. Too tired!

I went to the gym today with all intentions of doing my typical hard cardio workout, followed by some light stretching and weights... but I got put 90 minutes behind schedule first thing this morning, and it was a downward spiral from there.

At least I got to workout in the a/c with my mom!

The Treadclimber by Nautilus is a great alternative to running on the treadmill. I would equate the workout to a good hike. I get a great calorie burn - better than the 'mill, and it seems to use most of the same muscles as I would running hills.

Of course, there's never a pause in my conversations with my mom while we Treadclimb side by side... bright red faces, and dripping sweat. I don't know how she stands the stinky one next to her!

To bed early with hopes of an early morning jog!
