I decided while watching The Biggest Loser  that I would run on each commercial break.   Each break is 4 minutes.

I was shocked at how good a workout I got from doing that.   I ended up running a total of 43 minutes and got almost 3 1/2 miles done in that time.  If it weren't so hot I could have done more miles but I ran slow.
 

I just set up my running trail in my house and ran.  I think i'm gonna do that each time the show comes on,  it's a easy way to get a little extra exercise in during the day.

Wanna get in a little extra workout,  do something on the commercials.

Lee,

I know thats the truth. I exercised through the whole show, it is always very inspiring to me.

I didn't plan to run on the commercials it just sort of happened.   I look at the show and see these super fat people losing weight and I do it every season and at the end i'm still struggling with the same weight I have been for years.   

So I just stook up and started jogging.

Wow man!  i JUST finished exercising this morning - something I have NEVER done - I figured I would at LEAST take 10 min before I hop my ass on this computer......

That is an excellent point - I will do that this evening! 

I don't just have issues, I have subscriptions!  I'm saving on the newsstand price.......

10 minutes is good.   I am really gonna try to start working exercise into tv viewing,  usually i'm running to the fridge for a snack of peanut butter and raisins,  now I will be running away from it.

Hey Lady!  No one went home.  They all worked together as a team for the challenge that was set and it allowed everyone to stay at least one more week.

I pretended that I was working out with them and it was my workout that helped push them over the edge so no one had to go home.

You are so right Lee!! One of my co-workers told me that she works out during the whole show because it motivates her. Especially when you see how the contestants continue to push to work out harder. I'm going to try this ~ thanks for this post!
