I want to purchase a piece of cardio equipment to use for when the weather and/or pollen are bad so that I can do LISS. Anyone have any recs? I'm leaning towards a rower, but I'd also like to be able to have a screen to watch in case I want to watch some TV. I don't care about it havinf programs, classes I can join, or any of that stuff.

We bought a bike trainer - a Kicker Snap (it might be kick'r). It's nice because our own bikes attach to it so we never have to change seat height, etc. Just pop off the back wheel and snap it in. We use the bkool app with it for fun, but you don't have to.

    Yeah. It's fun because you can choose trails all around the world and the resistance adjusts to the terrain. Sometimes i ride around a lake near our house. Sometimes, when i want to get more miles than my husband, i ride down a mountain in France and i can get up to 43 mph! Without the app you can shift gears and it adjusts. There are a bunch of available apps for phone or tablet, some free and some pay. I downloaded about 5 free trials to choose the one i liked best.
