Anyone have a elliptical in their house/apt ????

[pin]

lol No, not at all! Its just the way it is, facts are facts. We've been around since the 70's and have seen many fitness specialty companies make the same mistakes Busy Body is making, and it eventually sends them under.

Dude busy body is owned by an investment company that owns lots of other stuff. I don't think its a huge priority for them right now. My store has been owned by 3 different companies and has always been profitable. Maybe if Busy Body does go tits up you guys can buy it. lol.

Fuck that, I'd never want a Busy Body! The problem with being owned by another company is one, you're pretty much always for sale. And two, depending on who owns you the direction of the company or your importance in general can vary.

If your company owned it, then it wouldn't be a Busy Body anymore, now would it?

Just sayin'

I used to have one. I gave it away. My neighbor gave it to me. I am fussy with my ellipticals. If it doesn't move just right I hate it.

Proper ergonomics are important. Most people don't realize that when they go out of their way to avoid treadmills cause they don't want the impact and buy an elliptical, if it has poor ergonomics its every bit as bad for your joints if not worse. At least a treadmill allows you to move as nature intended. Ellipticals can be very restricting when not made right.

IMO the good ones are hard to find too.

The cheap ones people get at the local Wal Mart suck and are not designed properly.

Not so much that they are hard to find, its just that you wont find them in department stores. Just about everything in a department store is junk, and 90% is made by one company anyway regardless what it says on the side of the machine.
