Serious suggestion: stand while you watch the video (Youtube on a TV helps here), use a pomodoro timer to do it in bits. I also find I can watch a good bit of a complicated/technical video while walking on a treadmill/stairmaster at the gym.

Doing it 3 days in a row feeds the motivation cycle in me. After day 1 I'm itching to get back to the gym and get back to the video to do another "episode".
