With my elliptical machine. Ok, really? It's mostly hate. It is hard to do. I feel like my lungs are going to burst out of my chest. It is uncomfortable. My legs are either in dire pain or my feet are going numb. Afterward I look like hell. My skin is super flushed, my hair is disheveled, depending on the temperature of my garage I may have sweat soaked into every inch of the clothing I am wearing.
So where is the love? Well, for some reason it is THE ONLY exercise that I can push myself to go harder/faster/longer and I actually keep doing it. If I were to go outside for a walk and try to move faster the second my legs started to burn or my breathing got too hard I would slow down. Whenever I do any sort of cardio workout dvd, I feel like there is no way I can go on. But I can with the elliptical. I also love that it kinda makes me feel like I am jogging, but without the jolting and destroying of my joints and the flopping of fat rolls. (Mostly I like the non-flopping of fat.) I also like that once I get back in the routine of using it, it is easy to see how quickly I progress by being able to move up the resistance or go longer.
I still hate it more than I love it.
