I know alot of people love to jump on a treadmill and run for ages...and every so often I would usually get the need in my head to do it. This is probably what makes people not go to the gym though, because after 5 minutes of running in the same spot I get very annoyed and bored. I kind of feel like a hamster in its wee wheel, and I dont like feeling like a hamster.lolSafe to say, I no longer do any cardio of that type. No running or cycling or whatever in the gym. The only cardio I have done in the past 6 or so months is through some martial arts classes, although they were in my last gym so I havnt been doing anything for a while but im looking for a new place to go. The fact is, going to these classes is interesting and you will never get bored, unless you hate martial arts. There is also the fact that doing muay thai or brazilian jui jitsu training will wear you out alot faster than running on a machine and it is teaching you to defend yourself. Trust me, it may look easy rolling about the floor with someone, but when you have to use all your strength to try and control the other person with absolutley no resting period you will get very tired, very quick, and hence very fit. Try it...or not, its up to you.

agreed - its hard as feck - i remember throwing up after grappling drills when each time u got someone to the ground the next came in. When you were in the middle you could only grapple yet they could strike.
i feel sick just thinking about it !
well i was never quite sick, but havin to wrestle 2 people at once was the worst ive had to deal with. terrible at the time but u feel great when u finish, especially if you dont get tapped out.
