OT: Do you guys excercise?

[fenderrocker]

Just found this article in the Times on lactic acid. Basically, the whole theory behind it is wrong. I thought it was interesting enough to share with you guys. Enjoy

Interesting article ... thanks.

On days when I can walk the dog in the morning and/or afternoon, I am less prone to having a leg cramp during the night. This is more of a problem if I am sitting down all day working on a project.

By the way ... the dog could care less if its me or the missus taking it for a walk!

Using a scroll mouse I must cover miles every day.

Yes. Yoga. A couple rounds always helps out. Seems to keep the machine happy.

I'd worked a desk job in the past. We weren't to leave our desks. I got stretch marks and started to get winded up and down stairs. Faq that. LOL.

I also ride my bike around town, and lift a bit. I keep some dumbbells around for farmer walks. Another link.

Push ups, dips and pull ups. Also some power cleans and presses. It all seems to help.

Hope this helps.

At the risk of not sounding funny, I find that 30 minutes of exercise every day dramatically reduces migraines for me.

Exercise can release lots of feel good stuff, natural opeds which lift the mood and also the exercise can keep you a bit younger.

It's MUST for me. Like food and water.

Thanks for the link.

I hit the gym six days a week before work. Helps with dieting and mentally and physically feeling better.

Let's see.. I:
a. Run my mouth
b. Shrug my shoulders
c. Point at the other fellow
d. Think very hard about the things I like
e. Try very hard to NOT think about the things I don't like
f. Make each coffee by hand one at a time
g. Make two trips to the loo for every coffee drank during the day
h. change my mind, often


Well, I could go on but I think it's time for my nap.

(Actually I am on my feet all day long. Being a slavedriver is harder than it looks)

I highly recommend the beast with two backs. You can burn some serious calories and earn some Pro Tools time at the same time.
