Out of shape because you spend too much time playing Madden???

[MidnightPyro]

This is a brilliant idea. With those few extra pounds I've already put on during the holidays, I can now change playing Madden into a workout all it's own.

The best part about this? We'll never see an out-of-shape Madden-playing Dolphins or Falcons fan ever again.

I ran on the treadmill while doing roster tweaks for NCAA 08 on 360 this year. Thank you Microsoft for wireless controllers!

Hey, with two kids and a wife, my free-time is precious.

Yep, that's my workout plan as well.

What do you do if you never throw interceptions, get sacked, or generally play bad? lol

Highly Recommened!




If you can put together $100 this mini-exercise bike is perfect for getting some cardio work in while you sit back and game; you can basically kill two-birds with one stone...

So how does one stay in shape without spending a significant amount of time away from Madden? Do what I do and penalize yourself for your mistakes while playing Madden: Turning the game on = 20 push-ups & sit-ups Giving up a TD = 20 push-ups & sit-ups Throwing a pick = 20 push-ups & sit-ups Failed 4th down or 2pt conversion = 15 push-ups & sit-ups Failing to stop a 4th down or 2pt conversion = 15 push-ups & sit-ups Taking a sack = 10 push-ups & sit-ups Giving up a FG = 10 push-ups & sit-ups Taking a safety = 10 push-ups & sit-ups Losing a game = 30 push-ups & sit-ups Not only will this keep you in pretty good shape, but it will also force you to play better because no one wants to end up doing like a 100 pushups/situps after a game of Madden...Do it for a month and you'll notice how much better your Madden game has gotten and how you've suddenly developed an interest in muscle-shirts.

What slider set do you use?

Seriously a good idea. Congrats to ODogg and MJ, you inspire me. I need to get my *** back in shape. I could do some physical work and play ball, guilt free.

A good friend who games constantly but works out has always had a deal with himself that he has to earn time playing. He won't play unless he has gotten his workout in or gotten in a run or a ride.

If there is a will there is a way.

Check that, it was a stupid idea. Just played a game and I did so many pushups that I won't be able to play Madden for awhile even if I wanted to.
