74 words

I decided to do a typing test while going 3.5 miles per hour, and I type 74 words per minute. Pretty Good, soon I will have to talk and chew gum, and walk and type on the Computer Desk over Treadmill and socializing on social networking all at the same time.

Not Doing Anything – what would you not do anyway?

Look at it this way. You are sitting there doing nothing because you don’t have anything else to do. You’re bored out of your gourd. Why not snack on something? You know if you do you’ll get fatter. But you’re hungry!

Wait a minute. There is a treadmill over there. Why don’t you get on that? Of course, that’s even more boring. You’ve done that before and you’ve came to the conclusion that it takes more effort to stop the treadmill and get off of it to go to the refrigerator to pilfer something to snack on before coming back to the treadmill to continue being bored.

Why bother? You could just sit looking at television or playing computer games and maybe you’ll get a chance to sneak in a snack or two. At least it is not as boring as the other things.

So you decide to look at television or play a computer game. So what. It is something to do. Isn’t it something to do? At the very least, it’s not as boring as some other things you could be doing. Before television, radio produced an effect on the human psyche similar to that of television and computer games. It was an alternative to doing nothing.

While looking at television you become aware that the television activity is frown upon by the federal government because television viewing and computer game playing is thought to contribute to obesity! Actually it does not contribute. It is physical inactivity that is the prime instigator. Sedentary activities contribute to the individual’s obesity.

Obese is defined as having a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or greater.

• Underweight BMI is less than 18.5
• Normal weight BMI is between or equal to 18.5 to 24.9
• Overweight BMI is between or equal to 25 to 29.9
• Obese BMI of 30 or greater

So there you have it. If a person has a BMI of 30 or greater they can be classified as being obese. It also follows that you can’t be an obese person unless you have a BMI of 30 or greater. Isn’t science wonderful?

Of course with all the physically inactivity around maybe you could conclude that the treadmill may factor into the solution to enable control of the individuals’ body mass index problems. At the very least you should give it a try and verify that some treadmill-based solution will realize your expectations.

You should only buy and use a treadmill whose manufacture supplies you, it’s owner, with an user’s manual which in addition to directing you with education or guidance on how to use your treadmill which also provides you with precautions and warnings to avoid risk of burns, fire, electric shock or injury to persons. Seek your physician’s direction and consul.

It is your responsibility as owner to ensure that all users of your treadmill are adequately informed of all warnings and precautions as described in the user’s manual.

The user’s manual takes precedence over any suggestions, information, opinions, or ideas on this website.

I received a post card from ‘Little Company of Mary Hospital” of Torrance, California inviting me to a free lecture about specific tests and treatment of key imbalances which may allow doctors to develop strategies that could be of benefit to the patent. The post card headlined “Are You Silently at Risk?”

“You may feel healthy, have great energy and “never get sick,” but physical health may not always match your body’s internal biochemical health. In many people who feel healthy, silent imbalances in the body can lead to a progression toward Heart Attack, Stroke, Diabetes, and premature aging . . ..”

Most if not all exercise manuals point out the important exercise note, “Before starting any fitness or exercise program, consult your physician.”

In view of the above comments it is possible that we could arrive at the conclusion that it is particularly important to persons with unknown pre-existing health problems in addition to persons with known pre-existing health problems that some sort of professional medical advice, comment and/or intervention could be beneficial. In other words everybody should see some professional certificated identity (physician) for his or her blessing or advice before proceeding or entering onto a treadmill or any other program.

Did you remember to get your doctor’s advice before you gained all that weight?

It’s hard to keep up with some people because they walk so fast. One recommendation that many have recommended is to walk with friends. You may be the slowest or the fastest within your group of friends when walking.

With the ComputerDeskOverTreadmill, you can go at your own pace (especially if you are not competitive), without a buddy, and be motivated by reading on the computer an e-book, surfing the web,  watch a movie, and/or play a computer game all in the privacy in your own home.

Would you start a walking group today?

I was reviewing what I wrote previously about hiking in the trails while thinking about playing a computer game and I noticed I didn’t expand on reasons for playing games on the computer.

Developing the ability to see, think and react fast when an occasion calls for fast action is one reason. Also as part of that reason the ability to think and then react fast is another. Gathering knowledge from playing computer games allows one to know what is going to happen if certain actions are performed. Beside, games are fun to play.

Physical Exercise for the sake of physical exercise is not fun. Thinking about it is boring as well. If you really think about the reasons for this attitude, could it be because the results from this activity take so long to accrue?

Sitting down and playing computer games  is not very good for your health or butt. One of the justifying  reasons why computer games are good for you is because of brain-hand-eye coordination. The results are instantaneous.

Let me tell you about a little hand-eye coordination that I did. I did a typing test while walking on the treadmill at a speed of 3.5 miles per hour and the results of the test indicated that I typed 74 words per minute.

If you were to combine computer games with the treadmill instead of sitting down playing the game, and you start playing with them while on the ComputerDeskOverTreadmill. You are combining hand, eye, and leg coordination all together.  A sound mind equals a sound body all at the same time.
