"Why Stay Fit Physically and Mentally As a Coder"
A Thread... 🧵
In this marathon, there are lots of ups & downs I see, the biggest mistake was to avoid my health until 2018.
I worked hard to stay relevant & stay long hours, but the problem for me was, that I have felt exhausted mentally and physically at every end of the day.

In early 2018 I get the sense that I am doing something wrong with my life and it cannot go on like this anymore.
As a coder what we do when things go wrong in the codebase.
"REFACTORING" so I challenged myself to do refactoring of my mental & physical health.

I came to know about the "quantified nutrition + weight training" combo is the best solution for long run fitness goals.
It's fine to lose weight & get back in shape, everyone loves to stay fit.

What I would suggest to you 👇
1⃣Daily physical exercise:
I know it's the biggest challenge for you, Keep recognizing that you need to move during breaks.
First, you should manage to get out and walk at lunch for about 10-15 minutes add 30 mins cardio move to weight training.

2⃣ Quantified Nutrition:
We have a “sitting” job so, when it comes to our diet, we need to balance protein carbohydrates & fats.
Look at my one of diet chart power of macro calculation.
Eat what's required as body fuel, not for your taste buds.

Develop an outdoor games activity that will eventually help you more.
