ok i know what youre talking about SP. how are those? they sound amazing.

every once in a while my wife will walk up and down on my back and set everything straight… man those few seconds after that im in heaven.

It takes a few days to really feel any improvement. You feel great when you first get off it, but it goes away. After a few days you really begin to notice a difference.

I actually was doing a lot of late night work for a while. while I worked I would drink a few beers and whenever I took a break I would grab a jump rope or weights or something. sometimes I would jog around the building a few times.

Well, I swear by mine. The immediate effects are almost euphoric, but it takes a few days to really feel the benefits. It wont work if you don't use it though.

Sounds like something I could stand to try, my back hurts all the time, and has for years.

Mine is sitting right behind me, I used it about 3 hours ago.

never really used many exercise devises. my folks always had row machines and exercise bikes and gadgets but a set of dumbbells and a jump rope has always been the way for me to get in shape. soloflex makes a great we of dumbbells that I got to use for a year. loved those...

I walk on the eliptical machine at the gym, and use a lot of dumbbells too. I use very few weight machines, I've found that the dumbbells can handle about 90% of my working out.

I agree. I like to lift and run. I don't really consider my inversion table as an exercise divice, but it is a gadget. You just hang there. All I can say is that it makes me feel great, and it's legal!

That's all that counts! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

hey Todd did you say you were gonna try and get into the academy too?

I think an eliptical is a great machine. I use them when I'm too sore to run, quite often.
