Default Thinking about getting a home gym

My kid is disabled, so I can't get out of the house to exercise unless he
can do it too (single mom, too) so I use my exercise bike daily. If I
didn't have it, I wouldn't do cardio. I also have free weights - if I
didn't have them, I'd not be using free weights. So, depending on your
situation, having stuff at home may be the only way you can easily work out.
But... I wouldn't get a bowflex. free weights are cheap and easy to get
started with - there are whole workouts for people who only have dumbells.
I think that's the way to go if you are interested in doing weight training
at home.

Actually, you don't even need free weights - you can start with a tin
can in each hand.
