Bad workout habits

[akizora]

Now, I know this is kind of ADHD, but I get soooo bored working out, even with tapes I love, so I play my workout DVD on my laptop, which I set on top of my TV, which is usually tuned to Comedy Central. I justify this by thinking that when you're busy, you have to multitask!

I tend to wake up at 2 am with the urge to work out. Usually I stick to something low impact because of the people who live around me, but sometimes I say screw it and do the blasts at the end of Kickmax!

It gets worse--I also drink coffee while working out! It has to be a little lukewarm, though.

It's not just me, is it? There have to be others out there with these sort of bad workout habits!

Don't you find that if you're doing something else while working out, you're just not giving your workout everything you've got?

If I tried to follow Cathe AND watch tv at the same time, Lord knows what I would end up doing! I simply am not coordinated enough to do that!!! LOL

My bad workout habit would be running to the fridge for another bite of food inbetween commercial breaks or doing laundry inbetween. Also when the phone rings, I feel the need to answer it when I should just ignore it.

I have a television on next to my combo tv-DVD player, too!

I used to only have it on when I was lifting weights, but now I like the distraction during cardio as well. I have done all of Cathe's workouts soooo many times that I get bored. Although, for Low Max and Imax 3, I mute the tv and crank up Cathe becuase of the awesome music. I usually only have the morning news on, so it doesn't demand my full attention. I haven't felt that it has decreased my intensity at all.
