I love the stair climber! It's my favorite cross training tool right now because I can get my heart rate up without thinking about it much. I've been on a Dave Ramsey kick and have been listening to all of his April podcasts, so I just go to town and get my financial groove on (and try to ignore his goony-ness).

I think the stair climber is the BEST cross training. With the elliptical and bike YOU have to make it go, but with the SC it makes you go. Sweat fest for sure!

I LOVE Dave Ramsey (we call him Damn Ramsey). There is nothing tricky or risky with his stuff....he's great!

Nice workout!

Haha, that's funny! Yes, it is very simple and to the point and makes sense. Have you gone to FPU? We went in 2007 and have been following his plan since, it's just been slow since both of us have tuition. But now that I'm almost graduated, we're planning to pound this thing out!! Can't wait.

The stair climber kicks my trash!

Hey! Why aren't you in the list of people making the St. George Marathon Lottery?

From glidergirl on Tue, May 10, 2011 at 19:00:55 from 155.100.9.11

I'm not?! I signed up under the series and my card was charged. What list are you looking at?

Maybe I spelled your name wrong? Check here:

My name's not there, but there's a note to e-mail someone if you did the Series and can't find yourself on the list, so I did that. Thanks for letting me know, I just assumed I was in and didn't think to check anything.
