This is good. However, a better way to develop arm strength is to do at least one set of your best at lifting weights a day. You should do this if you lose three times in a row :p.

Well, push-ups work mainly your chest with less focus on your shoulders, triceps and to a certain extent biceps. You should be more specific and name an exercise when giving advice on increasing "arm strength". "One set of your best at lifting weights" is vague and confusing. And in which part of your arm are you trying to develop strength? I doubt there are many exercises that work your entire arm.

Sounds like a good idea, but doesn't help me a lot cause I never lose ever.

I once had this idea I had to masturbate each time I lost, but then it got all sore and started to flass, so gave that idea up pretty quickly.

I had the same idea a few years back to do a few exercises whenever I died in Counterstrike Source. It turned out that
1) The game was too fast for that and the next round started too quickly to do much in between
2) Your mouse and keyboard control isn't too hot right after training your arms.

looking forward to the day when laddering on starcraft is as manly of a choice as going to the gym

Awesome! I think I will give it a try in August, when I have finally time to play more than a game a day again! it's a nice combination of small work-out sessions and the (almost) best thing in the world - StarCraft.

1. Losing
2. Crunches/Push-Ups
3. Analyze Replay why you lost (while heart-beat and body in general calm again)

Huah!
