Exercises While Reading
I get really antsy when I’m reading and really need to finish, but I also need to move around and get exercise. These are also good for people who are studying for school and don’t have enough time to go to the gym (or do not have a machine at home).
- Leg Lifts (lying on your side; or the lying on your back versions; also while sitting)
- Squats (this is my favourite)
- Plank Hover
- Smaller Weights (barbells; just switch sides every 10 reps or such)
- Walking (30 + minutes, good pace)
- Steps (walk up and down a set of stairs)
Stretches are a lot easier to do while reading. :)

Excelsior, fellow book lovers!
Sometimes I wonder why my books haven't asked for my parents' blessings yet.
You don't need to know who I am. Only that I like things. Like books. I am also a bookseller, which is why my hands are so dry to the point of them peeling off like snake-skin.
This blog is meant to be as ridiculous and funny as it is serious. I love books, reviewing them, discussing them, and analyzing them, but I'm also a fan of awesome things that make me laugh.
This does not include cheesy romantic comedies or lemon-flavoured candies. These are neither laugh-worthy (usually) or awesomely yummy (ick).
