Programmer Fitness Official Topic

There is a myth that most programmers are in bad shape and get little to no exercise. I aim to rectify that.

Personally, I am in great shape. I am on the cross country team and run at least 4 miles every day (usually 6 or more), and can run a mile in 5:45, and a 5K in 19:55. I have also run distances as long as 11 miles, and soon, I plan to run for 14 miles.

I am creating this topic to disprove the myth that programmers are in bad physical shape. What sports to the Mod Share-ers play and how do they stay fit?

Re: Programmer Fitness Official Topic

i do mixed martial arts, (mainly karate) and each class is about 45 minutes long and i do that 4-5 days a week. Also i am currently a black belt so... i don't think this myth is true tongue Also did you know that programmers burn more calories than people watching television? It is because you can't really eat and program at the same time, but for watching TV it is easy.
