There is a new machine at the gym!!!!

It is a treadmill that is split down the center and while the tread rolls and allows you to adjust the speed, each side go up and down at an incline - which you can control how much of an incline as well.

It is TWICE the workout! Burned 200 calories in 20 mins on this machine alone.

I heard about that from my aunt this weekend. She said it was really difficult and very good exercise. I need to get my butt moving so I'll check that out at the gym.

I've seen those machines! It looks difficult. Is it?

Wow - not something I'd want to own at home though, I like the traditional type you can run on. But great for introducing a bit of a shake up to your routine - probably great for developing core muscles and proprioception too!

I think that Bow Flex advertises one like it on TV. I was considering buying it because it was advertising the quicker way to burn off the calories.

I am also interested in hearing if it is hard to do?

That sounds like a great workout, I hope Bally's get a few soon. 200 calories in 20 minutes is truly a workout.

Can't wait to see it.

I LOVED it - used it with the eliptical machine and plan on using it to break up my routine, as I tend to over use the eliptical machine!!! (who me?!?!)

I stumbled twice, when I looked at my feet and when I didn't pick my feet up and was getting lazy and the machine had switched inclines on me!

It was a GREAT workout.

I don't care for the treadmill anymore b/c its just not the workout that I can get from the eliptical - this one was challenging and different and we all like that in our workouts!

Today I get to do the eliptical for an hour !!! Whoo Hooo !!!! 500 calories is what I shoot to burn in a workout everyday.

I LOVE THIS MACHINE !!!!!

I am so tickeled pink with it!!! And I mean that pink part - I leave with a nice glowing pink face, and drenched in sweat!

-600 calories in less then 50 mins. Can not beat that with a weight bar!!!

We only have four at our gym and they stay busy, I find myself sitting behind a machine waiting for one to free up. I HATE doing that as I feel like I am pestering people - but people, like myself will stay on it for an hour !!!!
