How much are you looking to spend?
im willing to spend anywhere from 15-300 bucks maybe 150-400 if the machine is that good
dont wanna waste my money either
I wouldn't buy a cardio machine for under $200, at least. Unless you can find a super good deal, your gonna get a piece of junk. I'd rather buy tapes (hint: scrappers workouts) and do them at home. You can get in serious shape w/ good bwe tapes.
interesting, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
know im more fucked then before LOL!
Get a "power tower" where you can do pullups, roman chairs, dips, situps, and pushups for $150. Get some bodyweight program like Scapper or Bas's MMA workout and your all set.
Any cardio machine you can get for that kind of money is going to be pretty crappy. I agree with getting the chin/dip/roman chair tower. I have one of those, and also scrappers mod-1. That keeps me pretty fit. If you get the mod-1, once you can get through PT For Convicts, going hard, you are in shape...
so what about a simple exercise bike guyz
i just want some good cardio for constant running during ball hockey
he said "ball hockey"
huh huh huh....
Buy a pair of running shoes. Find a hill. Haul your ass up it.
If you want to get real creative (and effective) tie a freakin' plate or sled
to your belt and see above.
This will help much more with your stamina in a high intensity activity
like hockey than a stationary bike will.
