My exercise regimen is tied to what I can watch on TV while I do it. Up until now, I had been watching Lost. I had never watched the show before, so I used the opportunity and a Netflix account to get seasons 1-3 on DVD, and watch it every time I exercised. I just finished Season 3 over the weekend. Season 4 just finished in real time, and isn’t available on DVD. I have it on DVR, but unfortunately, the DVR box is in a different room from my elliptical.
Which means I need a new show to watch while I exercise. I was hoping for it to be The Wire, which is next on my Netflix queue. I started the show last night, but I’m worried it might be a little slow to exercise to.
Any thoughts? Is The Wire a good exercise show? Any other suggestions? (I have Prison Break on the queue, would that be better?)
Meanwhile, this week I was a bad boy. Wednesday night I went to the Met game with a couple of friends and had some carvel, a hot dog and a hot pretzel. Definitely not band-smart food. Forget band-smart, not health smart. Then this weekend, we had company again and my wife made a lot of food that was very yummy. Anyway, barring some miracle, I am almost certain that I will see some gain at tomorrow’s weigh-in. I guess that means I get to reach my 50 lbs goal again the week after!! Yay for silver-linings.
Try Veronica Mars and 30 Rock. The first season is the best for both of those shows.
