Please address water evacuation and slippery surface issues. Then I'll buy it |

I run in the rain. This would work, but you'd need good
shoes. I'd buy it. I love running and hate the clean-up
part. |
|
|
Could we add automated hairwashing and shaving devices ? One soapy croissant.... |
|
|
[normzone] I was planning that as model lazy boy! |
|
|
I'm sorry, but this would never work. Running shoes in the shower? |
|
|
I like your thinking, but I find I have to wait 20 minutes to cool down and stop sweating after a run, otherwise I continue to sweat even after a prolonged cold shower. So working up a sweat whilst in the shower will result in me smelling slightly rancid for the rest of the day. Maybe I'm some sort of perspiration freak? |
|
|
Tchaikovsky's point about running shoes can also be extended to people who need to wear sports bras. |
|
|
It might not be for everyone, but I'd certainly buy one. There's nothing more annoying to me than that sweaty, sticky clothes feeling after strenuous exercise. I suppose I could exercise naked, but that might alarm too many people, oh and it'd be cold. |
|
|
this is lovely but I would certainly want a moving scenic wall or I would get bored very quickly. |
|
|
Just take your morning bath in one of those treadmill pools. |
|
|
Good one, [nw]. Can it make coffee too? |
|
|
lintkeeper2 and po, Its like I told [normzone], there is a lazy boy version! that has both the coffee maker and the TV screen. |
|
|
[tchaikovsky] one could choose not to wear shoes you know! |
|
|
True, one could choose not to wear shoes or any other clothes at all. But have you ever run without shoes? Has a tendency to hurt the soles and the ankles. And are you a woman that has ever run without a sports bra? Not pretty. |
|
|
Clean up would be a breeze! Just turn the thing on high and hold a scrubber stationary. |
|
|
It would get tricky when you need to rinse the soap off your back. Most people run much slower backwards than forewards. |
|
|
NO RUNNING ARROUND THE POOL - wait a minute. |

On the BBC television programme "What the Victorians Did for Us", hosted by the excellent (?) Adam Hart-Davis (the guy from those tax ads), they showed a combined exercise bike and shower. You pedalled the bike, which worked a pump feeding water to a shower head above your, erm, head. |

Can't find a link out there, but I'm sure someone else must have seen it too. |
|
|
i like the idea. but i hate the idea.
maybe because i don't like treadmills much. |
|
|
[scratchpost] so you like it twice and dislike it twice... thats alright all are welcome here! |
|
|
It'd be hard to intimate with a lover in the shower if the floor was moving... |
|
|
What surprises me is that this isn't the first idea here for combining a shower and an exercise machine. Brun suggested adding a shower to a bicycle (see link); here we add a treadmill to a shower. |
