Major Problem of Life Solved!

You know when you work out in the morning, and you listen to William Shatner's Common People really loudly, and you have this huge urge to yell along with the lyrics, but you can't because it interferes with your ability to count your repetitions?

I solved that problem. Oh, I sure did.

The trick is to use different parts of your brain. You use whatever verbal/speech part it is for the singing, but for counting, you do it visually. You have to stop hearing the numbers in your head, and instead visualize them, like a huge sequence passing you by.

It works like a charm.
