Yes I use a small one on my Wii Fit, but my husband has said we could pick up a step for the house in the near future.

so you have the wii fit game? you could make a routine of different games mixed together. like hoolahoop for 1 min, step class for 5, skate boarding, walking/running, more hoola hooping, some yoga...

and you could step on it while you watch your fav. shows. just do the..um i forgot what that's called. it's the one where you step by yourself. it's just counting steps. then change tv to your show. it will go up to 30 mins.

the free-step, I have been doing that for 10 minutes at a time when I do it. I have NO problems with it.

I didn't know I could do 30 minutes at a time...I did Super HulaHoop for 6 minutes today, omg I almost died LOL TOO MUCH!

yea you have to unlock the longer time feature, just like on the runs. you can run up to 30 mins at a time without a trainer too. i find that harder to do while i'm watching a show though. you could do walking or marching in place too.

this is a leg routine i like to do, there's a lot of squats,lunges you could do a substitute exercise for those, there's a lot that you CAN do though. especially all the floor exercises at the end.
legs and glutes:

http://shop.cathe.com/Body_Blast_Ser...Legs_p/618.htm
Standing Leg Work:
Leg Press on High Step (2 sets)
Hover Squats
Rear Lunges with heel elevated (rt side)
Plie Squats (varied tempo hold)
Rear Lunges with heel elevated (left set)
Plie Squats (varied tempo pulse)
Drop Squats on High Step
Explosive Plie Squats
(with curtsey lunge insert)
Calf Raises
One Legged Deadlifts
Plie Squats (traditional)
Sculpting Drills slow motion on High Step
Explosive Lunges (no weights or equipment)
Outer Thigh Leg Press on high step with ankle weights (2 sets)
Calf Raises
Standing Leg Extensions with ankle weights
Standing Outer Thigh Lifts with ankle weights

Floorwork: Glute and Hamstring Tucks on high step with ankle weights
Glute and Hamstring Raises with ankle weights
Outer Thigh and Glute Sweeps with ankle weights
Inner Thigh Lifts with ankle weights

i'm not saying your workout at the gym was wrong. i think it sounds like you are getting a good workout. i just offered suggestions, because you said you were bored and we all need to mix it up. challenge ourselves.
