Working out. (I do it most weekdays, too).
I work in software, and I've seen far too many guys in my industry who are either skinny as a rail and surviving on Cheetos dust, or painfully overweight. Had several co-workers croak unexpectedly, at shockingly young ages.
It's a real problem in the industry. People simply plop themselves down at their computers and forget to do anything else for an entire day.
I have kids, and refuse to let them lose their dad early, so I hit the gym for an hour in the mornings, at least every other day. I do a mix of cardio and weight training. I also never stay seated for longer than 45 minutes.
Seriously, guys... If you work in the software industry, make a habit of getting up and moving around. It doesn't actually take much to reap enormous benefits just from staying more active.
I'm 31 and I've always been on the nerdy side. I have ADHD which let's me lose whole days really easy. I decided a long time ago that dripping out of college was probably the best thing that could have happened for my health. I eventually got a job working outside and I've never looked back. If only I didn't have one of the (if not the) most dangerous jobs in America right now.
Is it being a lifeguard to Donald Trump? WELL DON'T LEAVE US HANGING.
Tree work. Super dangerous. Specifically, I climb the trees to trim/remove them.
So basically, you're the one that doesn't want to be left hanging.
Thanks for filling us in!
