Icon14 Out of shape because you spend too much time playing Madden???

If you're anything like me, then you can't be bothered to waste precious hours at the gym or working out in the garage, when that time could be better spent infront of your TV enjoying a game of Madden. 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.

Good advice. The only problem is, I'm having a hard time doing push-ups with a beer in one hand and a hot dog in the other.

Turning the game on = 2 beers
Scoring a TD = 2 beers
Intercepting a pass = 2 beers
Complete a 4th down or 2pt conversion = 2 beers
Stop a 4th down or 2pt conversion = 1 beer
Get a sack = 1 beers
Make a FG = 1 beer
Get a safety = 2 beers
Win a game = six pack
