Re: Good series to watch at the gym

Avatar/Legend of Korra? Technically a cartoon, but very well-developed and often very grown-up, so it shouldn't be embarrassing to watch (and you can legitimately say you're watching for the political drama). Lots of action in both series, and they're generally ~20-25 minute episodes, so watching two in a row will be about 40-50 minutes.

The only other show I watch that has action in it is Agents of SHIELD. It's pretty fast-paced (especially in the later/more recent episodes), plenty of fight scenes and running around and the like.

One thing you can also try doing is watching an action movie. Just go until the end of your work-out, then pause it, and don't let yourself keep going until your next work-out. That way, when you really just don't want to go do it, you can tap into the irritation of a half-watched movie as motivation to go work-out, anyway. :)

>asks for a non embarrassing show to watch
>reccommends Korra

I mean, Korra's nice and all, but c'mon you can't be that dense to think someone who isn't familar with the show won't make unfavorable assumptions about an adult watching it. You and I know, it's an alright show, but it's incredibly anime-looking and that usually means kid's cartoon or hentai to your average joe.

OP was already watching cartoons at the gym; their primary problem with what they were already watching was "screamy anime teens". And from the sounds of the other comments in the thread, OP is more concerned about their show being heard than seen, in which case people would likely hear a lot of ethical dilemmas and fantasy political drama if they happened to overhear - but not see - anything in the Avatar franchise. Maybe that won't work for OP, but maybe it will. I made a suggestion that approaches their problem a bit more laterally than the other suggestions I made, and I leave it up to OP to figure out if it works for them or if it lacks in the criteria they need.
