No Elliptical

The one I want is $900.00.  Ain't gonna happen.  I guess I'll have to settle on an $18.00, 10lb kettle ball. Sounds good to me.

So, no elliptical, not this year.  BUT....

My husband found the bar he was looking for.  Online = $80.00, Play It Again Sports = $30.00! YES! And he picked up 50 lbs of weights.

I'm gonna try my hand at exercising AGAIN! I found the video (to the right) showing how to do a  proper "deadlift".  Supposed to be the "2nd best exercise you can do" because of the muscles it works (gluts, back, and quads).  The first best exercise (I've read again and again) ...squats.  I hate squats!

Well, daughter and I are off for a little Christmas shopping.

We're Off

The husband and I are headed out the door to pick up (hopefully) an olympic size bar bell (so he can do presses) and we'll be looking at ellipticals (fingers crossed).  The elliptical would be my Christmas present (oh please Santa - I've been good...I've been kind've good...o.k. Santa, you've got me, but I've pulled back on yelling at my kids & I've been working on showing patience to my wonderful husband - that should count for something!)

Oh, just in case you're interested, I have another blog.  You can find it here (i'm slowing making the transition to bringing them together).
