Sleeping.
Eating, pooping, showering, sleeping, cooking, cleaning, drinking coffee.
Spanking it.
You do that anyway, choose another one.
Spanking YOU.
Ohhh myyy. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Why you dirty, dirty boy! O_o
…who me? Couldn’t be!
Pinball
Having sex.
it would be heaven if i could go out every weekend to the same places and fuck all the guys who wanted it like i am now, for the rest of my life.
Hitting the gym
I workout every weekend already so probably that.
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 have an IT company, and believe the same. We’re all working remote, and we organize competitions regularly like who is doing the most interesting sports, making the most progress, being the most consistent, etc.
I think it’s also important for the long term sustainability of the team too, we want people to have healthy lifestyle balances and not burn out.
Bingo. When my body is healthy, my brain is healthy. When my brain is healthy, my code is better.
I never had to before, always had reasonably active jobs. Supervisor role and middle age and a scolding from my doctor has made a difference.
I’ve been giving myself 20 minutes a day for the last six weeks. I haven’t really lost weight, but I do feel better.
I actually gained weight when I first got serious about the gym, and that worried me until my doctor reassured me that I was putting on muscle, not fat. These days, it’s pretty obvious in retrospect.
The real metric I pay attention to is blood pressure. As my dad’s getting older he’s been struggling with blood pressure, and I don’t want that to ever happen to me, so cardio is important.
Blood pressure is the real reason I started.
It’s called “the silent killer” for a reason. Maybe you’re just tired lately from working hard, or you’ve been having headaches from eye strain, or maybe your blood pressure is at 170/120 and you’re actually near death.
That’s the shit that scares me. I’ve worked really hard to get my blood pressure way down (currently 110/60) and intend to keep it that way.
Yeah me too, but I haven’t gotten my shit together with diet or exercise and my doctor is taking it way too cautiously with medication.
I’m constantly too tired t put enough energy into getting my doctor to be useful and getting myself in gear …… actually Pokémon Go is the only thing that works. Every Saturday I’ll take a 3-5 mile walk with my teens (except recently with heat waves)
and work standing
Yep. I have a standing desk.
I started working out because I was super weak and just had a kid, and I realized there was a legitimate risk that I wouldn’t be able to pick up my own child, so I started doing some strength training and holy crap this is amazing. Then I went back to college and lost my workout schedule, but after college I started running the following super smokey summer and didn’t make much progress, but this summer I’ve picked up biking and I’m currently up to about 3 miles of extremely hilly biking every day.
I seriously forgot how fun biking is, and it’s also nice just how much healthier I feel from the regular fitness
Right? Just getting up and doing something is so important. Whatever works to keep people from being sedentary.
Human beings aren’t meant to be sedentary. Absolutely get moving in some way or another!
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!

I go boxing every weekend I’m home and will keep it up thru retirement just to stay mobile.
Training for boxing every weekend, very good. Doing actual boxing and getting repeatedly hit in the head every weekend, not exactly the most senior friendly activity.
well i wear a mouthguard and headgear. Still it wakes you up.
Sure, like you do you, be happy. Just saying that no amount of protection will avoid long term injury if you train every weekend. Some boxers have still sustained concussions and other brain trauma while training in full protection gear. Be careful.
