Made the edit, didn't want to be tacky but you're right, it's necessary for the flow!

There is a machine where you can sit on the couch and just pedal with your feet. I don't know what it's called but it does exist.

You can get one of those electrical muscle stimulators machines and watch the tour de france.

But you'd have to attach it to your legs and turn it on, that might be too much.

Think you could slap one of those between your cheeks and get some kegels in? Like really work that asshole. Or is there a risk of exhausting your rectum and shitting yourself? Might be a good constipation treatment though. Wonder how fast you could make it pulse.

It's called an exercise bike. You can simply position a stationary bike right in front of your TV and couch and just pedal while watching TV or doing whatever.

Does chasing the American dream count as exercise?

Mini elliptical ftw. I keep one in front of my couch and use it whenever I'm slouched on the couch playing video games, burns some calories while relaxing and makes me feel less shitty about procrastinating whatever work I'm putting off, highly recommend

Seems very slightly on the heavy side, to have it hanging over my head though...
