Gym exercises you won't do

You can make them fancy and charge more.

They used to make treadmills without motors.  They don't work very well actually.  I think Nordic Track had one back in the day.

 

If you like your treadmill, you can keep it.

But I think there are probably some good ones out there without motors, if you look.

A short search turned up several non-motorized models.  It looks like the sky is the limit as far as price goes.  Found a couple non-motorized models that sell for over $5k.

There's no good treadmill swamp, the idea is straight garbage.  Only a money maker. Snake oil of the fitness industry, there's a LOT of snake oil. Just throw a ripped body or 2 on the package and away they sell. Pathetic

The whole fitness industry, and especially fitness machines, are kind of a scam, if you ask me, but to each his own...

[swamptiger]

I wouldn't go as far as to say riding a bicycle, for example, is bad for your health, however.

There are some budget priced machines out there that really don't look too bad.

I ran across this one..

 

 

These come without a seat or a steering wheel, and work reasonably well for the guy who has lost his rear and doesn't know which way to turn.

No, not each his own. You're a human, so am I. Let's not forget that.  Let's also not forget we have hamstrings that need to work for us, if not then your knees will damage.

Power lunges, no thanks!

I absolutely refuse to do pole dancing in the gym.

On behalf of all HSO members and all of the members at your gym I would like to say "Thank You"!

I find crunches very difficult.

I do not like pulling up on a bar, and squats with a barbell

I like pull ups, or chin ups,  or whatever they are called better than the Lat pull downs.
