I'd say 7 hours of sleep per night and 3 hours of exercise

  thats what I do. Wake up 7, gym till 8:30, then work with break for food once every 2 hours for 5 minutes (plus bigger dish at evening) then from 10 to 11 cardio, sleep before 12. I do not exercise over the weekends, let body sleep longer, rest, be lazy. If I manage my time properly, I still easily get 10 hours of work a day! I just noticed how much detracting certain things are: talking 5 times about the same thing over the phone with friend, watching TV "only" for couple minutes, browsing web, reading emails that I know I will come back to again later on, etc. It all adds up substantially. The only spoil other than energy drink with 30g of sugar (my daily rate) I let myself to do is to "waste" time here and there on reading HN :)

  1 hour of intense exercise (minimal breaks) >>> 3 hours of exercise with a ton of breaks and loitering around. There's a lot of literature that workouts beyond an hour-hour and a half don't add much benefits and the shorter and more intense they are, the better. (of course this does not apply to athletes)

    You can even cut that hour down to 30 minutes of high intensity, 'bursty' exercise with no breaks. Art de Vany talks about this in Evolutionary Fitness.
