Getting a leg up on the resolutions

The Dude and I (mostly I) have been talking for a while now about getting home exercise equipment. I had hoped to do so pretty soon after I moved in, but other things tend to get in the way. Anyway, the Dude, knowing it was important to me (and also seizing an opportunity for an easy gift), decided to get it for me for Christmas. I suggested it would still count as a Christmas present if we got it early, so we went Friday and picked out a PaceMaster Bronze Basic with a free Schwinn recumbent bike. They are being delivered and set up this Friday morning.

I'm posting about this so I will feel accountable to my vast, vast readership to actually keep up with my workouts on these. Someone mentioned recently that she likes to accumulate TV show seasons on DVD, as is currently the fashion, and that she is only "allowed" to watch episodes while working out. If she takes a break, she hits the pause button. So wanting to see the next episode is great incentive to work out. When I used to go to the gym, I loved watching reruns while on the treadmill, so this should work well. The TV, VCR, and DVD player are already set up by where the equipment will go. And I have a few DVD sets already waiting. (And perhaps more coming off of my Amazon.com wish list?)

So...let the home workouts begin!
