While that hasn't worked out as hoped, the treadmill seems to have provided unexpected benefits in terms of strengthening my core muscle groups, even though that wasn't my goal. Odd though, that in spite of biking to work and regular use of the treadmill, my aerobic capacity is still horrible, and hiking is laborious. Brad On Sun, Feb 19, 2012 at 10:26 AM, Tord S.
