And then there was cross training

  As I was staring the end of my tenth month of my journey in the face my wife came across a cross training machine that was nearly being given away. She sent me the link and even though I wasn’t really that interested in a cross training machine, I gave it some good thought and decided what the heck. They were only asking $5.00 for it. I thought hell even if I only use it once I’ll get my money’s worth. I gave my wife the thumbs up and she stopped and picked it up for me.

 The machine took up a bit more space than I wanted to give up at the moment but I gotta tell you this was a great score. There was no attachment on it like a timer or miles counter but it was just a beast of a thing. I hopped on it and managed a quick 10 minutes. The next morning I was hurting in places I didn’t think possible. I named the machine Satan seeing it put me through hell. 

 After my first time trying it out, it would be like a week before I jumped on it again. I did 10 minutes again and sure enough the next morning I felt it. It was a bit monotonous to be honest until I decided to throw on some headphones. That was a game changer for sure. 

 It was definitely worth the $5.00. It ended up being a great addition to the home gym. As with everything I am slowly progressing. It’s a great way to warm up before going into the rest of my workout, or a good way to close after a good workout. These machines have many health benefits. I will have to make a post about them in the future. Thank you for reading.
