Okay, I'm 31 weeks pregnant so won't be needing it just yet! But am forward planning and would like to buy an exercise machine for use at home and was wondering what the 'best' type to get is? I don't really want a treadmill as I'm hoping to get lots of walking done with the baby, and I'm not much of a runner. Initially I wanted an exercise bike, but have been told that for the amount of effort you put into them, you don't get a lot back. Maybe a cross trainer? What do you use that appears to work?
I've put on A LOT of weight during this pregnancy but I'm really not a gym person, I'm just too shy. So I figure if I invest in one machine (plus swim and walk a lot) that might be enough to be getting on with! We have about £300 max to spend and it has to be something relatively 'fold away' as we have a tiny flat!
Thanks in advance! (And I'll meet you all properly on this board in a few months post birth!)
