Do you try to accomplish any activities while you game?
« on: August 09, 2012, 03:44:22 PM »
We have an padded mat in front of our XBox and sometimes do stretching while playing. I was looking at an exercise bike and thinking I could bike while I play and burn some calories but I wasn't sure if it is feasible. I can chew gum and walk but not sure about biking and playing a FPS! Anybody have experiences that relate?

I sometimes sip on coffee while I race.  Some of you have witnessed the result on track . . .

I am not a good multi-tasker.  Focusing on 1 thing is hard enough!

I think a recumbent bike is the way to go D. My wife likes to use one so she can read but I think you'd be able game pretty easy as well.

I read while playing Gears 3.  Currently on the 6th installment of the Jack Reacher series by Lee Child.

Since I use a wheel and brakes I'm pretty limited from any other endeavors during racing!

I have a stationary that I ride when I played CoD:MW2 and Forza!

Honestly, with my low attention span and constant need to fiddle with things the bike helps calm my nerves while racing. Focused drifting at it's best (well, maybe not best...).
