Done with the StairMaster

I wanted to report on here that I am officially never going to use the StairMaster again. Some of you may love it; more power to you! It does not agree with me for some reason. Recently, I really pushed myself and did some walk/run intervals. It was hard, but I felt great. Afterwards, I got on the StairMaster and started stepping. After about 30 seconds, I slowed down the speed. Then I stopped, took a drink of water, and started again. After about a minute of a slower speed, I started feeling nauseous. I kept on thinking it'd go away. It didn't. When my StairMaster hit 3 minutes, I hopped off and headed to the bathroom, thinking I was about to throw up. I thought it must have been the bacon, eggs, and toast I had just eaten that was causing my stomach to be upset. Well, I managed to run outside and shake off the nausea with a little fresh air! A few days later, I was working out in the morning with Nicki. We did a few difficult, but great things. I pushed myself and felt so good about it. Then, we got on the StairMaster. I had just had a breakfast bar this time, so I thought I'd be fine. Well, I began to feel nauseous again! Nicki laughed as I had almost all of my weight resting on the machines! Then I felt it happening. Nicki had me pacing to help it go away, but it didn't. We walked as quickly as we could to the back, stepped outside, and I threw up. We got a good laugh out of it, feeling like we were on a reality fitness show. I don't understand why that machine does that to me!! I am no stranger to intense workouts, but apparently this machine is just too intense for me. :)
