Importance of fitness to webmastering

I think it's very important, both for your state of mind and your overall health. Due to the back injury I sustained at work back in '97, my overall fitness level has recently dropped off the map. I'm sick of feeling tired and achey all the time, and it's time to start really seriously exersising.

I've decided that an in-home program would be best for me this time around. I say "this time" because I've had many many gym memberships over the years. Going to the gym is nice for the social aspect for sure, but there are a few problems now. One being that every gym I've ever joined has eventually gone belly-up. The last one, called "absolute fitness" was a very nice modern state-of-the-art facility, my membership there was paid for by Worker's Comp, and I knew several people there due to my past work as a fitness trainer. But 4 months into my membership they closed their doors permanently. Crap!!

Then in the fall of 99 I re-injured my back, and since then I've put on some weight and am in the worst shape ever. Jogging no longer appeals to me, and riding my mountain bike is soon going to be no good either (winter, snow, ice, cold). I like swimming, but the nearest decent indoor pool with a weight-room is the Pan-Am pool which is miles across town.

Sooooo, I'm considering buying a bowflex. Does anyone have any experience with the bowflex? Does anyone here excersise in-home? Are any of you like me....a web-hermit? LOL
No really, it's time to get serious about fitness, so talk to me about how you guys do it, and if you know anyone that owns a bowflex and if it's worth the cash.

Thanks,
