Shaping Up in 2013

Friday - Recumbent Exercise Bike

I got one last year just in time for the Shape up 2012 and if there was one big piece of exercise equipment I'd recommend for those who have room or the inclination, this is it.

It will fit nicely in a very small corner or behind a love seat and it is the one thing I've actually used where I can count the time working out in the hours and hours column. You can watch TV, read a book on your tablet or phone, do arm exercises with weights or bands, and it's quiet enough to do in the middle of the night without waking the family.

Here is my alter ego on the same Marcy brand I got at Fred Meyer.


Ok, so I kindof promised to list some of the exercise equipment I have, so here's most of it: #don'tjudge

Recumbent bike
Wii Stepper
Regular Stepper
Hand Weights - 4 sizes (2,3,5,10 pounds)
Ankle Weights - adjustable weights
Yoga Mat
Foam Roller
Pilates Circle
Manual treadmill
Fitness Disc
Ab Lounge
Fitness ball - the one you sit on
Wave Rocker
Bands
Thigh Master
Chin up bar for door
Total Gym
Cross Bow Flex
Manual Eliptical

And of course a wide assortment of regular bikes, balls, rackets etc. Yeah, kind of reminds me of one of my yard sales where somebody asked if I had run a daycare. Nope just one kid.

Now at least a third of those are recycled from the thrift store and more than a few are earning their early retirement in the loneliness of the garage or closet. #ifonlyequipmentcouldloseweightforyou
