I'm scared of dogs 
I like the bathing suits and I have a pool somewhat near me I just need to fit time. |

I swim and power walk. Occassionally I shall ride a bicycle. I do not do well in gyms , since other people scare the crap out of me. So individual excercising is what works for me. I ran track in high school.

I LOVE my mini-trampoline! I live in an apartment so a treadmill, for instance, is too noisy and cumbersome. But my mini-trampoline is very easily moved, and quiet. Plus, I'm in private so I can listen to music! I also have low blood pressure (I'm unsure how problematic this is for you though) and my standing balance isn't the best, but I move really well! Stimming helps my balance; so does trampoline. Plus, I like music. I think it's fun, especially if you like something repetitive. But do watch if you feel faint - not good. Maybe start gently, then see what's right.
I bought my trampoline (on sale) for ~ $22! It's very sturdy but lightweight. I like to do 20 minutes.

I was thinking of getting one of those soloflex machines, but I am afraid it would sit in the corner and never get used

Walking.
If you cant do high activity excercises then walking is absolutely the best. you could also try some soft swimming (lazy laps in a pool). . its like walking but works out more than just the legs. |

I can do anything in water because my fainting is caused by getting overheated with exercise, and the water conteracts that. I can do hard swimming if I want to (I have )
I don't really like trampolines much, but I'm glad it works for you
I have one of those bike machines, and I can do it for five minute before starting to get dizzy (I get carried away)
