I'm a software engineer... and being tired of being out of shape and gaining weight, I joined an extreme workout program/class a number of months back where we do kickboxing and resistance training alternating 6 days week.... and I absolutely love the results. I feel amazingly better, I sleep better, I lost my belly completely, and actually have abs! My heart rate went from the upper 60s to the upper 40s. (athlete range... and I code all day/night!) But more interestingly I've found that I can focus a lot better... I feel way more productive. I really recommend to all my fellow tech people to try some program like this! We spend a lot of time stationary in chairs... We're all highly analytical, and like engineering whatever we're working on to best fit our goals. Think of exercise as some important performance module for the human framework? :)
