Static zaps...Yeowch!!!

I suppose it's because of the dryness in my basement (where my workout room is), but I have been getting MAJORLY zapped while working out recently I mean, I've even seen sparks fly!! Has this been happening to anyone else? Is there anything I can do besides run a humidifier all day down there? I'm even scared to pick up my dumbells because I know what a big shock I'll get!

Yup, been happening to me too! I actually touched the tv the other day and the shock was so large that it turned the tv off. Unfortunately, I think the only solution is humidity, and I know that I don't want to run the humidifier in the basement. I just deal with it for those couple of cold months.
