    My guilty pleasure is watching TV shows on my phone (from Netflix) while I'm on the elliptical. I pop in the headphones and am distracted for 30-60 minutes.

    I'm also guilty of reading the trashy magazines!! Sometimes I pick up Women's health or some fitness magazine but it never beats catching up on celebrity gossip :)

    Don't really have a guilty pleasure I guess per say. If anything when I'm doing some olympic style lifts you kinda have to get violent with the weight and I think of people that really piss me off, mostly in-laws.

    I swear at Jillian on an almost daily basis.....my dh thinks I'm crazy because I'm talking to the tv, but it makes me feel better! I'm also saving up for a new ipod, so I can download shows to watch while I'm on the treadmill or elliptical.

    I have to wear shorts and a sports bra to workout...I exercise alone as well. I also have to listen to music extremely loud. It drowns out the swearing toward the end. lol

    I love music! I blast it while interval training outside.. when I'm inside I don't listen to music but I do just wear my bra when doing EA Sports.. and blast the dang fan in my face (lol).. when I'm doing my stationary bike though I love watching TV.. I hate that bike, couldn't get through it without being distracted!

    If I could read and walk I would.. but I find it slows me down... I love reading.. to bad I can't figure out a way to not slow down and do it, lol.

    I listen to music that I typically would listen too, mostly 90's rap like NWA, DMX, and Tupac.

    The whole album is just under an hour. I put it on and every song that comes on I say to myself 'ooh this is my favourite song' because I can't decide which one is my favourite. Then when it gets around to the first songs again I realise I've done heaps and haven't noticed!! Especially on my bike... a couple of hours goes sooo quickly when I'm trying to sing AND pedal AND concentrate on staying upright!

    This is really immature, but while jogging on the treadmill, I picture myself in a horror movie, being chased by either Jason or Freddy Krueger. That's the only way I can get through the jog!

    lol I def did this during my last 5K!! i was struggling and then I remembered someone on here saying how their bf told them to "run like the zombies are after you," and that's all I pictured for the last 1/4 mile or so hahaha, gonna keep it from now on!

    there are 2 reasons that I don't: 1. my son is usually around, and 2. I like to have something to soak up my sweat at least a lil bit!! LOL
