There aren't enough words to convey the hate I have for Liberty Mutual commercials.
Hello,

Agreed. They're second only to Peleton on my hate list.
Annoying and I hate the fact that they appeal to a very specific demographic -- rich people.
Doc isn't that bad.
:oops:

Does Doc own a Peleton?
Nah he just aspires to.

:angry: We have a Bowflex … which is exactly like a Peloton except it doesn't come with a monitor (and is much cheaper than a Peloton). And we got it because the Boss was interested in a spin bike.

Hello,

I'm waiting for the rumble between the Peleton gang and the Bowflex crew. There's going to be spilt Chai tea all over the place.

I always kinda wanted a Bowflex gym, but neither of our houses have had a deep enough basement. Tho I'm also getting to be too old, I think, for that kinda stuff. :meh:

Hello,

Resistance training is important as we age. We lose muscle mass/lean tissue and this may bring functional as well as health problems. Lean tissue burns calories constantly and helps with a lot of other health concerns such as glucose tolerance and blood pressure. No one is suggesting you enter the Mr. Canada bodybuilding competition but retaining a decent amount of muscle mass would be healthy. Body weight exercises can do so but if a Bowflex would motivate you more, great!

Oh yeah, of course. But I'm still rowing and biking 5/6 days a week, so it's not like I'm wholly ossifying. And I do have a basic bench and dumbbells that I can get back to. I suspect as much as anything I'm attracted to just having a complete package with lots of options. But, as I said, our basement isn't deep enough, so it's a moot point.
