...I never did in my life, including the time when I was not a programmer.
I see no sense in "moving/training just to move/train". training for...what?
I can train for a tournament, I can train for a challenge... but training just to train? There is no sense in this.

But WHAT I do is, I do lots of manual work in my free time like garden work, I love to work with wood, I built several garden huts together with neighbors, for myself, car ports, veranda's.
I have enough knowledge to do wooden floors in all rooms of the house, building walls, roofs, all that kind of building site work. That comes from the family, where all parents/grand parents where electricians, workers, plumber, etc etc.
I know almost everything necessary to build a house from scratch. working with concrete is not a miracle for me, neither is a spatula or similar kinds of tools.

This is a kind of manual work where actually a sense can be seen.
No sense lies in pushing a dumbbell up and down...and up...and down... no sorry. such a waste of time.
