I keep telling myself that I need to get off my arse and get in shape, but I just haven't been able get motivated. Part of it is that I usually go straight home - sometimes stopping to get something to eat - and don't want to get back out. I just don't want to stop at a gym or anything on my way home. Plus, places like 24HR Fitness and places like that are too expensive and it's more like a social gathering place than a work out facility. "Gyms" are a little less expensive, but they're too intimidating.

So tonight, I got a wild hair - I never really understood that term - and ordered a Bowflex Home Gym. We've all seen the commercials - "Build muscle, burn fat, get fit and look great - all in just 20 minutes a day, 3 days a week. See REAL results in just 6 weeks, guaranteed!" Yeah, I'm just a sucker.
