I lost track of the minutes on one set of jumping rope, even though I was staring at the clock. How did I do that?

I attempted the stationary bike. I lost motivation after five minutes when I had to readjust the seat and handle bar. I adjusted those before sitting on the bike, but it wasn't good enough. It was too hard to figure out what was comfortable for me, so I gave up and went to strength train.
