I'm enjoying reading this thread as I recently purchased the UR with great intentions and vowed to ease it into my rotation once a week. But haven't really been doing so for a couple of reasons:
1) the UR workouts are only about 30 min and not intense enough to burn "enough" calories for a 30 min workout..i usually do an intense interval workout if I'm time crunched and only have 30 min
2) i often work out early in the a.m. when DH and babies are still asleep and I simply find the darn thing too loud.....does anyone else find their UR too "squeaky"??...also the reason I don't freestyle while watching TV...I wouldn't hear half of the show
perhaps I'll try to adapt a hi-lo workout and see how that goes. I can't get my head around how to use it with a step workout just yet. not so great sometimes at thinking outside the box!!
