✓ Sit with your gear. Before you start watching TV, put on your exercise clothing and sit your gear in front of you. Be ready to jump to it as soon as the commercial starts.
✓ Warm up. Before you start watching TV, we recommend doing a short warm up. Alternatively, once you’ve started utilizing more than one commercial break, use one for effective warm up and the rest for actual exercise.
