#2Server error unfortunately - this is something I'd like to see though as I basically stopped working out completely for the past four years of my start-up experience. I literally started running again last week, and it has already made a difference in my overall happiness.

Totally agree. Steve Kamb is the man.

#6I've been using the BodyMedia FIT (http://www.bodymedia.com/) to get detailed stats about my fitness level -- calories burned, level of physical activity, sleep quality and duration. As a data geek, it's made all the difference in my motivation to stay fit: I feel a level of control and certainty about my fitness decisions, now that they are informed by data.

#7This article essentially says "practice any sport, whenever and wherever, just keep at it". While that's not wrong, it's not very useful.
For me personally, scooby1962's videos on Youtube were really helpful. Great advice on building muscle without doing crazy stuff, not requiring a gym and almost no equipment.

I'll second the recommendation for Scooby. He's a little strange, perhaps, but his methods are effective and he's got a high signal/noise ratio.

#9I tell practically everyone I know to try Crossfit. There are two basic difficulties with any exercise regimen, and Crossfit nails both:
1. Figuring out what to do. 2. Actually doing it, consistently, over the long haul.
Crossfit will teach you how to do the old-school, badass basics of fitness--stuff that will get you in great shape and is actually fun to do. No gimmicks, no miracles, just stuff that will kick your ass.
Doing Crossfit also makes you a member of an incredibly friendly, supportive community. This makes it so much easier to stick with it--every class, you'll see people in your community, friends, going hard and making progress. You support them and they support you. You'll work out with beginners, who you can help, and with badasses, who can help you.
A well-run Crossfit gym is a magical place.

#10Do entrepreneurs somehow have different bodies from other humans? Fail to see what makes this article especially relevant to entrepreneurs.
