It’s terrible, but…
…one way to get my ass on the Precor and to keep it there is having some decent (and by decent, I mean deliciously trashy) on TV. Our gym has little individual TVs on most of the cardio machines, so I can watch Bravo instead of golf that some meathead set the general channel to.
Seeing that the Real Housewives finale that I missed would be on at 2:30, and being hopped up on what seems to be disproportionately caffeinated loose leaf black tea, I was totally motivated to go to the gym today. And the new NY Housewives show was on afterwards, double bonus!
The downside is that during the week there is NOTHING decent on at 6:30 AM-ish (except, well, you know, the news, and I’m already too into election minutiae as it is). Infomercials run rampant on the cable channels, including my beloved Bravo. The gravest insult is that Law and Order used to be playing at that time on USA (I think), but now it is nonstop JAG. Which, if you’re going to play JAG, I guess you’re not going to put it in a primetime slot, but I sure wish they would bring the L&O back. Any Law & Order, I’m not picky.
