Getting Healthy

After a few months of wanting to get one of these I finally bit the bullet and bought one. Harry and I went to about four different stores previously and looked at a whole bunch of different Elliptical machines. Of course you could tell the difference between the low price ones ($299) and the high price ones ($1000+). I knew I wanted something fairly cheap as we are not rich but I wanted something that would work and felt smooth, as my knees aren't what they use to be.

The ProForm 500 F Elliptical machine was the second elliptical we tried. After that we kept comparing it this one. So today Harry and I went to Sports Authority to buy it. It was originally $999.99, but was marked down to $799.99 and on sale for $499.99. Of course the sales person wanted to sell us an extended warranty and after talking it over with Harry we thought it would be a good idea since we plan on using this a lot and to pay that much money for something, we got the two year extended warranty. Of course it was another $150 for that but I think in the end it's well worth it.

Now the fun part was getting it home and putting it together. The salesman said he wasn't hard just time consuming and he wasn't kidding. It took both Harry and I several hours to put this thing together. But in the end we got a really nice machine. Now I just have to force myself to work out everyday as planned.
