    I never knew boardgame comedy was a thing until I discovered this

    Paula is the best Meeple-Robics "Instructor" in the business. Bonus victory points for the side pony

    Using the playmat as a yoga mat destroyed me haha well done as always!

    Great work on this one! Those are legit workouts especially for these days. I myself may have done some shoulder presses with a sealed Gloomhaven ;)
    Keep it up

    Hard to pick a favorite part but the core workout and grapevine had me rolling 🤣

  • @DullDishwater

    I love the meeple jumping on the shirt. So good.

    • @stephanieboron5500
      @stephanieboron5500 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It took me nearly the whole video to figure out that it shows a moving meeple...🤦‍♀️

      Yeah that shirt os the best part. Where can i buy it lol

  • @CrystalDax

    Your tone and presentation are spot-on. OMG so perfect. With this meeplerobics workout, my game improved by 10 points!

    • @PaulaDeming

      10 whole points! Nice!

      Honestly I really wanted people to actually be able to follow along and do the workout

  • @Xenu
    @Xenu 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    No way I could ever go through seven minutes of that without breaking into uproarious laughter. The fact that the work out kind of seems doable makes it even more hilarious!!

  • @ridgerunner1861

    I can do gloomhaven with the broken token insert, but frosthaven will be coming in this year so I really need to work my core so I can get them both to the table.

    • @PaulaDeming

  • @TTdmhBT
    @TTdmhBT 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    What's great for me is I already have the games used in the workout so I don't need to make any new purchases. But then again, more games more burn! I couldn't keep up, so I'll have to use the lighter games until I work up to your mastery. Great video!

  • @RuskePerson
    @RuskePerson 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    5:01 "Wooden game components are composed mostly of cellulose, which makes them a great low-calorie snack"
    that one is just hilarious to me for some reason

    The best way to have boardgame geeks exercise. Now I'm gonna train... Gonna be a master at rolling those dice, and powering my games.

    The play mat as a yoga mat was the best. Well worth watching the whole video.

    I think the ultimate game for the "Get it to the table" exercise would be Twilight Imperium. Its not only hard to get the to table but also almost impossible to do a squat for the game length.

    Sooo realistic! Thank you for including the Warnung about engaging the core to protect the lower back!
    My back actually hurts from playing escape tales while sitting on my bed last night. Getting older is no fun. Boardgames are though and your channel is great. I hope we will soon get another episode of table for one?

    • @PaulaDeming
      @PaulaDeming  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! I wanted it to be actually useful as a workout video as well as hopefully funny and entertaining, though I’m no fitness expert!
      And there should be a new Table For 1 in the next few weeks!
