Ok have been running now for about 2 weeks outside and am tempted to give up my gym membership and just concentrate on running. But I would like to get a piece of equipment to use at home on "rest" days and also as a warm-up, cool-down thing. Is a cross trainer a good thing for this purpose or not? Where is the best place to get one???
Thanks
Catherine

I did buy a cross trainer once but I soon got bored of it and sold it.
Mister W -- no mail for me this morning..? Slacker!!! Oh and planning rides huh..? :-D
Yes its ok and you can buy it from gymcompanyusa.com...
they have wide ranges of equipment available with them
I bought an Exercise Bike from Amazon, called 'F-Bike'. It folds up really small and does a really good job. Two issues with it though: first off, the seat is awful: get some sort of Gel seat cover for it, and it has no wheels - so you either have to lift it completely off the ground, or drag it which isn't the best thing for carpet. It's currently £78 or so.
Since the past week or so, I've been doing HIIT on it, which I hope will speed some results along before too long. With all the training I do, and the sweeping changes I've made to my diet, God knows I deserve some results...
