I've walked on a treadmill while playing xbox before but I find it just distracting and I don't much care for it.

One of the comments in that thread:

Change your diet from protein based to carb based...Switch to a carb based diet, mainly rice. Bread is good as long as you stay away from white/bleached bread.

That's like the worst fvcking diet you could get. Wth?

being a man means being comfortable with your sexuality. just because you're insecure with yourself to not be open to watching a hilarious movie doesn't make me less of a man.

Yeah this is absolutely awesome. Not a new idea though, I saw someones blog about a similar setup a few months back.

Unfortunately space is a huge concern for those that live with their parents in an appartment in their tiny room, where the treadmill would take up all space.

Doesn't take up much more space than a chair, or a couch for that matter.

I always dreamed of doing this, but never followed through. I must admit, I'm slightly jealous that he pulled it off. I own a treadmill, it is setup in the basement, I listen to music and watch movies while running on it, but i don't do marathon gaming sessions on it. Combining the two activities would be dangerous.

A treadmill takes up a lot more room than a chair. Most do not have couches in their bedrooms.

Chair? Your kidding right? Comapring a chair, and a frigging threadmill.... now , a couch is more like it!

Usually, nothing less than a house will do for a threadmill, becuase it need spacious rooms. Most people dont have threadmills in appartments.

I agree, most people cannot fit mills in their houses that can make thread. I am sure they take up a lot of room.
