Otaku Training Plan!!!

Marathon training... in seven months, you can do ANYTHING! It addicts you and makes you plead for rest, but if you do, then withdrawal symptoms set in, and you're lured back to the thrill of running a billion miles every weekend. I'm thinking of starting a site-centered marathon group, but there needs to be enough people from around me so we can all run one near most of the members, like the Honda L. A. Marathon.

Wii Fit (or just a stepping stool) plus a Netflix subscription or set of DVDs, and optionally a set of ankle and/or wrist weights. I lost over 50lb (23KG) watching seasons 2 through 6 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer that way, plus movies and anime while I was waiting to find each next season. If you can stand to pay attention to a screen while doing situps or pushups or memorized yoga, good for you! (<-Sincerity. I couldn't.) I could have also done situps while listening to audiobooks, but I neither cared to nor needed to. Perhaps that could be done with anime spinoff light novels in audiobook format (or the other way around, in the case of light novels that spun off into anime).
