Need something to do while you are watching the NBA - here are 6 ideas If you're anything like us, then you have struggled to shake off the feeling that you are wasting time while you are watching sport. But don't worry, here are 6 things you can do while watching basketball to make yourself feel more productive.
#1 - Work out
There is nothing more inspiring when it comes to working out than watching some of the best athletes in the world battling it out on the court.
Trust us, you will never get a better workout than when you are caught up in the game. The miles will fly by, the squats will seem easier than ever, and the circuits will be over before you know it. An end to end game is the best distraction from the pain of working out.
#2 - Place a bet
Do you watch the NBA every week? Do you know everything about the rules of the sport? Do you know a lot about the teams? Do you know the history of their wins and losses? Their home and away records? Do you know which players are on form and which are having a bad season?
Have you ever thought that you could turn all this knowledge into a profit?
You can be betting.
With the NBA Finals coming up, you may want to put your head down and start studying the odds - there is some serious money to be made from just a few successful bets.
#3 - Do some housework
Our next suggestion is that you work through as much housework as you possibly can during your basketball game. Set yourself a challenge and see if you succeed. You can have fun watching the match and finish it in a sparkling home.
Activities that are great to do in front of the basketball game include:
Folding your laundry
Doing the ironing
Vacuuming (don't forget to put the subtitles on)
Dusting
Cleaning away any surface clutter
Paying your household bills
Doing any other house related admin - like ordering a new bin or a new shower curtain
Cleaning your windows, mirrors, and screens
#4 - Get some of your Christmas shopping done
Christmas shopping is a stressful experience. Why not beat the queues, get your shopping done early, and enjoy some basketball in the process. You can never be too prepared when it comes to Christmas and the holidays.
#5 - Look after your skin
Why not take the opportunity of watching an NBA game to put on a face mask, soak your feet, and exfoliate your hands. You'll be feeling good as new by halftime.
#6 - Sit down and enjoy the sport
Our final suggestion is just to sit down and enjoy the sport. You don't have to be doing something all the time. In fact, taking breaks and time to relax is essential for having good mental health. Invite some friends over, cook your favorite game-day snacks and make an event of it.
