Tell me what you think

I'm an elliptical girl due to the low impact on my joints..etc..I get a really good workout on it and I'm set.

I do the treadmill every now and then to mix it up but I don't run (hence the joints thing)

So my DH said to me that he thinks the only way to burn fat is to run on the treadmill. He says you have to jiggle the fat to lose it.

I almost lost it!

You have to jiggle the fat (meaning running)...

I'm thinking that I have to get my heart rate up, do resistance exersizes, weights, stretches..etc..nope-I guess I have to jiggle.

Has anyone heard of the jiggling factor? I think he's out of his mind.

that's funny- never heard that one before- wish it was true- I would have lost a million pounds by now

no - it makes me think of a long time ago the women would put those belts on and the machine would jiggle them... guess it was following the same philiosophy...

He was insisting last night..he said you have to jiggle..

He even yelled at me because I was telling him he's nuts.

Well....remember those machines in the 1970s--it was like a huge rubber belt around you and it just jiggled the crap out of you?

I need to find a photo! Not that I had one, I was just a kid!
