Since release i have thought, Starcraft requires a lot of sitting, but at the same time, you cant just sit without any move. So i run, but running is not enough, you can go to gym and all that stuff but that's just too boring i say.

So i thought about this idea - Whenever I loose, I make 1 push-up for 1 minute of the match. What equals - Match lasts 18 minutes - I make 18 push ups, then istarted to add to it different kind of push ups, then something more and so, in a year god dammit my back muscles and my chest and hands became so god damn muscled, too bad i didnt thought about making something like photos before and after.

Just an idea I wanted to share.

Very good idea imo, I can say from personal experience. It helps so much if i'm just pissed off after a bad loss, it flushes all the negative emotions out. I don't do anything too hardcore, just some pushups, and lift some weights.

It takes less than one second to do a pushup... Why not just take 60 seconds off and do as many as you can all in one go.

I just do a set number of pushups/situps/pullups/squats between each game, and not just with SC2, any game. So for example I will say I'm going to do 10 squats each game, then by the end of the night if I've played 10 games that's 100 squats.

Personally I don't like to use exercise as a "punishment" for losing. By exercising I am helping myself feel better, if anything I use starcraft to punish myself for exercising haha

pushups alone aren't going to be enough to keep you fit

I used to watch tourneys on a laptop and do 2 pushups every time the commentator said one of the players names. Pretty good workout.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

I have a bench and barbell in my room so I usually do a set after each loss to deal with any lingering emotions.

Actually, you should check out this site called "Fitocracy" which pairs a leveling up aspect with fitness. Interestingly enough, there's a Team Liquid group on there! I'm in it.
