I could only wish to be able to do 10mins on the elliptical trainer :O I was at the gym today and had to literally PUSH myself to do 5mins :( I can only do the treadmill for 10mins at a push and the bike for 20mins, so what I do is I'll start on the bike for 20mins, do 3 sets of 15 toning exercises, 10 minutes of treadmill, 3 sets ot 15 again and finish off on the elliptical :) and I'ma keep doing it till it gets easier, don't let it put you off there is not a person on this earth who started out perfect everyone has to work at it :)

I agree that you need to find something you like to do. It should be something that enhances your life and fits in naturally, not something you dread doing that makes you feel like your life is on hold until it's done.

There are a million things you can do - try them! (And have a "no excuses" rule): rock climbing, yoga, hiking, beach walking, biking, walking with friends, dancing/zumba, martial arts, kayaking/rowing/canoing, Couch to 5K (outside), a combo of all of these!

You couldn't pay me to go to the gym, but you also couldn't pay me to stop biking, swimming, hiking, walking, yogaing, and dancing.
