    I listen to music and zone out to focus on the lyrics rather than how long I've been running.

    While I workout on a treadmill I like to watch hulu or netflix. I got caught up on my shows like Scandal, Spiderman and others. This allow me to tune out how long I been on the treadmill. I can stay on the treadmill for an hour to a hour and half and burn 1000 plus calories. What do you do while you workout?

    That's awesome!
    I'm hoping 1 day to do something like that. Make TV time fitness time.

    Currently I just listen to music at the gym, sometimes news or podcasts.

    When I lived in Michigan and went to Anytime Fitness, they had tvs on each cardio machine so I would watch tv while working out. And since I didn't have cable at home then, it was stuff I wasn't used to watching. Now i'm in Arkansas and go to 10 Fitness...they have tvs, but you have to deal with whatever channel they have on. So, now I read. I take my kindle and get into a good book.

    When I'm on the treadmill I have the TV on... either the morning news, a DVD or stream Netflix. l need the distraction because the treadmill can get boring rather quickly. Especially during the winter months when I'm forced to do my long runs on the treadmill due to the weather conditions.

    Curse and scream WHEN WILL THIS TORTURE BE OVERRRRRR!!!
  • I also usually catch up on tv shows or listen to music. Today I played the facebook game candy crush while on my exercise bike ... great for distracting you, but also really great for giving you motion sickness :( Won't be doing that again!!!

    I just listen to music while I exercise. I can't really focus on anything else.

    if i'm running at the gym, i'll usually hop on a treadmill in front of a t.v. with CNN or MSNBC (really any news, so long as it's not fox news), read along with the stories and listen to music.

    if i'm running outside, i jam to music and get lost in my head thinking about what i need to do that day, the next day, etcetera; possible future travel plans, that cute guy i saw at the grocery store.. :wink:


    give it time and before you know it you won't want to watch CNN either. MSNBC has like 3 or 4 programs worth watching, real reporting and analysis.
