Yeah I work out, about 3 times a week, I got a set in my basement for stuff to do. I am a fairly big guy 5,11 175. I am taking up brazilian jujitsu in a couple weeks. That is going to kick ass, I also might start doing some teen amature ufc.

I'm large enough to scare people off, though not particularly strong. I tried putting weight lifting into my schedule, but it simply doesn't fit my life style, and it opens no doors for me in my professional future.

I'm a small guy (5'10" 106lbs) but I lift weights at home... And split firewood. Swinging a splitter is tough work.

I'm not athletic, but I'm not extremely overweight either. (6', 186 lbs I think...)

I ride my bicycle about 5 or 6 miles every day, and my mouse gets just about that much mileage. :P

Plus there's moving around computer equipment at school... I've had to move 21" monitors from the floor to a table before. One kid almost wrenched his back lifting it (because he bent at the waist and tried to lift it that way :roll:). But if you lift with your knees you won't get hurt as quickly. And you carry the glass of the screen toward you. That helps too.

I think the bag I carry from class to class is about 20 pounds, because it contains my laptop, externah hard drive, a bunch of CDs, papers up the wazoo, and quite a few tools.

But no I don't lift weights or anything like that. Like teraflop, it won't help me in the future a whole lot.

I don't work out, but I'll usually play soccer every day...I usually play in pick-up games and such, so I get a lot of exercise :)

oh, and I bike a bit...
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

I just started working out again. I realized I needed to after doing nothing but sitting on the computer all summer, I had lost a lot of my strength that I had from playing basketball. So I've been running, doing pushups, pull ups on trees, crouch jumps, whatever.

5 days a week, 3 hours a day, sometimes something extra on saturdays :D I am a wiry guy, 5'11" or so and 130lbs but I make up for my size with my speed, on of the fastest scullers at my club (top 5)

fyi: sculling = rowing with 2 oars
sweeping = rowing with one oar

i don't work out or exercise because it's good for me or anything but i'm a pretty active guy so i'm faster than most people and stronger than almost anybody but i'm not very big or beefy, just 5'10" 150lbs. i guess it's because i got milk. it's pretty funny 'cause whenever my big brother (6.5' lifts weights) picks i fight with me i always win :P
