How fit are we?
-
Yesterday, I played backyard cricket with some friends for about 4 hours or so. This morning I woke up feeling half my body is dead. My bones and muscles ache really bad and I have pain all over my body :-( Someone was asking here (few threads below) about what food programmers need to have to stay healthy and productive. I guess it's not just enough to take care of what you eat. You've got to have some exercise too. My friend (at whose house I played) has suggested that we find a local school whose baseball ground we could use as a cricket pitch during weekends. So hopefully I am going to get fitter over the next few weeks.

Well u played cricket.....i dont think that as sport to keep up fitness...Regular cricket requires you to be fit...ever seen those cricketeers play cricket in their fitness sessions....or you will end up with multiple muscle injuries due to loss of water, etc probs....Also at times its okay else it takes up lot of time .... and in some extreme HOT Indian summers....take blessings from Him and bring an ambulance with you to the ground. you said rite...exercise is also very important....i once read that regular exercise releases some hormone that is very good at increasing productivity :) ...atleast one more reason to do so. And I think sw companies should inspire the world by showing more of the fresh and well-body-built faces on their recruitment ads ;P .... i never joined infy bcoz they displayed those tired and unhealthy looking ppl in their 4-frame recruitment ads... :laugh:

Evidently, after a week of riding some fairly nasty hills I will be riding over the Passo Del Stelvio (Ranked #1[^] in the FIETS Top Nasty Mountains page), then the next day we turn around and ride back over it, then we'll be riding up Col de la Croix de Fer [^] and then continuing along the valley to ride up Alpe d'Huez[^]. And I've been told that this will be a no-holds-barred, ride-for-the-honour, may-the-loser-be-taunted-mercilessly ride. I have 6 weeks to be in the best shape of my life. Gulp.

How far away is your house from work? If less than, say 15km, try cycling to work.

do not attempt this in warmer weather unless your employer provides showers to clean off afterwards. Claiming to be doing it for your health will not defend against the stigma of being the stinky guy. X| X|

Indeed? I'm sure you're just trying to be motivational, but you sound pretty damn self-righteous. If you're keeping fit and going out and socializing and seeing the world, then I'm happy for you. You should enjoy yourself. Just keep in mind that if you're doing that, than there's a pretty good chance others are too.
