All Brian wanted for Christmas was exercise equipment. The little gym in our neighborhood was getting too crowded (only two treadmills) and his motivation didn't quite sustain itself through three walks in the snow to get his workout in each day. I was OK with getting the equipment, but the question was where we would put it. There were very few options. The boys room is big, but it didn't seem practical to put workout gear in there as it would limit hours we could use it. We could have taken out the guest room and just had an exercise room but that seemed like it would cause more hassle than good. In the end, the only option was our living/family room. I wasn't thrilled with the idea as this space isn't that large to begin with, but it actually has worked out great. We didn't have to get rid of any seating and I can watch TV while I run. Brian is loving it- and I have found myself much more likely to work out with it staring in me the face each day.Only time will tell, I guess, if it will serve as a vehicle for good health or as a really expensive towel and clothes rack.
