In case you didn’t know, April 07 = World Health Day (I found out a few minutes ago tbh, I knew we had one but had no idea it was today). I’m 99.9% sure none of my readers climb mountains for a living and it’s fairly safe to assume that given the nature of our occupation, most of us spend a LOT of time on a chair in front of a computer screen. What do you guys do to stay in shape and what kind of an impact does what you do for a living have on your health?

To be perfectly honest, I’ve actually never been in better shape and the fact that I gradually implemented small lifestyle changes made a big difference IMO. It’s all a matter of common sense at the end of the day, for example:

1) it’s been 7 years since I touched soft drinks (Pepsi, MD and all that crap). I mean let’s face it, there are plenty of healthy alternatives. All you need is fresh fruit, a juicer and there you have it

2) I eliminated French fries and deep fried food in general from my menu

3) cardio, cardio, cardio (I’m not a fan of lifting weights to be perfectly honest and I was always kind of well built, so it’s cardio all the way as far as I’m concerned)

4) generally speaking, I listen to what my body tells me (if you can barely stay awake, maybe it’s time to take a hint). If it asks me to try biphasic sleep on for size today (biphasic sleep = basically a fancy way of saying you’re taking a nap), then I do just that

Are you in decent shape and if so, which lifestyle changes would you recommend?
