One of my gaming buddies told me he setup a walking pad to game while exercising. Does anyone do that here?
It seems pretty inexpensive to buy one of these walking pads from Amazon but my question is how do you keep your balance if you game? I would think games like MLB THE SHOW may work well because there is less movement's you have to do to say compared Madden or FIFA.
Any suggestions here if you exercise and game? can you share your setup?
Do you game while on the treadmill/exercising???

No--but only because I run too fast 
Sorry couldnt resist because running is my only talent in life.

Where my treadmill is located in the basement wouldn't work with my gaming set up unfortunately. Nice thought, but I'd probably lose my balance and risk falling off.

you can use a tablet to game on via xbox gamepass or playstation remote play. they have small extension holders to hook up your tablet to your treadmill . I think instead a walker might work better. they are cheaper than treadmills.sportdan30 wrote: Wed Feb 11, 2026 1:20 pm Where my treadmill is located in the basement wouldn't work with my gaming set up unfortunately.

I was researching about the balance part too. Most people say playing a baseball game is the easiest. As long as you only hit and pitch and let the cpu do the base running and fielding. For football, the feedback is it works better if you play it like a coach mode where you call the play and let the cpu play it out.
Once I get a walker, I will test it and let you know what works and what doesn't work.
