You run out of the ability to be able to do practical mental work long before you run out of the ability to do physical exercise, so I think you're making a false zero-sum comparison of the two.
- Chris2048 11y agoTrue, but for me I have other constraints on free time, where I have choice between one or the other; so I am doing other, low-mentally-and-low-physically-taxing tasks in between free-time.

- Chris2048 11y agoI have more things I could do, than time to do them; prioritising is the issue. There's no such thing as 'spare' time in that context, all free time has things-to-do competing for it.
