I go on the ComputerDeskOverTreadmill sometimes over 2 or 3 hours if I am watching a really good movie that I am really engrossed in it. This is in addition to the  other things which take  additional time. I spend an hour or two answering or communicating e-mail. And as I wrote before I also spend time with the computer games.

I probably should tell you that my ComputerDeskOverTreadmill is associated with a specific computer. That is I have only one treadmill and other computers without treadmills.

This is the day of the after picture.  See the difference, it is a huge contrast between the old setup. The main reason why I got rid of my old TV, VCR, and DVD setup was that the conversion of Digital TV forced it’s hand upon me.  I had two converter boxes already and thus used up my coupons, and couldn’t get another coupon for a third TV. I went ahead with this idea in my head. I always had this idea to do this, but I wasn’t sure if this would work, and so I took the plunge, and it work a lot better than I  had expected.

The Computer Desk over Treadmill is just a desk to put the keyboard and mouse on top of it while one is walking on the treadmill. The LCD computer monitor is in front,  and the computer is on top of a gray bookcase. It’s a great way to exercise without thinking about it, and I walk and surf the web all at the same time.

New Computer Setup

Exercise takes time away from things that I would prefer to do, a list of these things that I prefer to do are,

1. Research sites, I found Google Reader terrific because I can keep up with my favorite blogs.
2. Watch a movie, an example would be one rented from a local video store, or the local library.
3. Play a Computer Game, that is one of the most fun activities that one can do.
4. I love checking my e-mail, seeing who has most recently e-mailed me back.

The least enjoyable is to exercise.

Walking is better than doing nothing, and doing nothing is worse than sitting.
