mommies - do you have an exercise machine at home?

And do you use it?

Now that I'm a mom of 2 I'm really having a hard time finding time to get to the gym. I don't want to buy a machine I won't use, but I think it is my only option at this point.

do you have a machine at home and do you use it? Which machine do you have and would you recommend it?

Re: mommies - do you have an exercise machine at home?

I don't have a machine, but I bought the 10 minute trainer DVD from BeachBody. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!

All the exercises are 10 minutes long, so it's easy to fit in between toddler tantrums. I used to do it during his naps, but now that he doesn't take naps, it's been a bit harder.

If I make it to the gym, I actually still do the 10 minute trainer workouts there, on top of my gym workout.

ETA: Just got the wii and wii fit for Christmas, so we will see if I can add that in too.

A DVD might be a good start - and cheaper too! Thanks for the suggestion!

I have a treadmill at home and yes I use most of the time being it's hard to find the time to get outdoors to go for a run.

I had a treadmill but had to sell it because we needed the money after i had DD. I want to get an eliptical though! I have been doing wii fit plus and that has been working.
