I'm an engineer, so my life is all about logic. Logic suggests that healthy body would make me more productive, so I spend 7 days a week in a gym (1 hour each morning, 4 days of free weights and 3 days of cardio) and I always research and tune my diet. The result is that it does make me considerably more productive, improves energy levels, mood, etc. On top of that I have wider shoulders and visible abs. Bottom line is - you don't have to like working out and dieting, especially if you do it right, but you're gonna love the result.
- greggman 13y agoI'd like to believe your anecdote but since I know lots of engineers that appear to be super productive and also very out of shape I'll have to counter your anecdotal evidence with mine :P Note: I started working out about 7 months ago for my health regardless if it would make me more productive. I haven't noticed an increase in productivity, a better mood, or improved engery levels, but I do have a belief that I'm healthier
- neverminder 13y agoThe end result depends on so much more than just working out. My first coach told me long time ago: the impact to the result is 30% working out and 70% diet. So there are quite a few questions that I'd ask, like: 1. Is your diet correct? Micro/Marco nutrients? Supplements? 2. Is your workout routine correct? Weights, cardio? 3. Did you check your hormone, thyroid, etc levels? Testosterone, HGH, etc?
