If you have been putting it off, now [View all]

would be a great time to dust off that treadmill and get into better shape. For a few years mine stood idle with my favorite coats on it. Time to actually hang up the coats and get some exercise.

Ya just never know and we could all be in better shape.

Hell might even feel a bit better.

Edit- Please check with your HealthCareProvider before starting anything like this.

Start slow please.
