Andy does best on a treadmill. He has bad knees, hips, shoulders, etc so rowing is out for him. After his heart bypass his Dr had him on a treadmill routine that he is looking forward to getting back in to. I HATE ellipticals! lol! We only have a tiny space to squeeze this thing in so there won't be any additional room for anything else. I would love a rowing machine, personally. I'm good with the treadmill though. All I need is a good incline to get what I need. I have my kettlebell for upper body and I have my own core workout that I do.

Reading reviews for various equipment can drive you CRAZY! there will be 500 saying it is fantastic, but those 20 or so that say it's a piece of junk stand out. As long as it arrives undamaged, I'm good to go. Fortunately, Andy is a master at assembly. I don't have to do it! Yay!!!! One of the many perks of marriage.
