I'm fortunate enough to work from home in an organization that stresses async-first communication.
I have kettlebells, I have a dedicated space for it which is one room over from my home office. There is nothing stopping me from making this my routine 100%.
Now I just have to stick to it!

Wow I have never seen such a huge motivator to move to fast incremental builds and streamlined code deployments! 🤣
We wrote a slack bot that kicks off release builds and chats back when it's ready. Then the team can tell it to kick off a promotion into an environments. As far as I know the team might been slamming the kbells while chatting with the bot and waiting for their smart watch to ping up a notification of the bot telling then the rolling deployment has completed. I posted a video of the chat bot in action on one of my dev.to posts...
You will gonna be ripped af soon!
@ben You can do it!, I just started 50 2-handed swings in the morning, every day without exception. Wanna make it fun and see who drops first?
Great opportunity to also mix in tabattas or mindfulness exercise.
That's a great use of your time. I also have kettlebells in my home office, plus a pull-up bar and a stationary bike. I actually like to ride the bike while coding. I also tend to 'super-set' coding and kettlebells, e.x. do a set of an exercise (or combine 2 exercises), do some coding for 1-3 minutes, repeat for several rounds.
since google has acheived quantum supremacy.. they might aswell release a compilation API :P
Great idea.
If you need ideas, this is my favourite kettelbell workout: k-sculpt workout.
someone's gonna get more buff.
That's true. Diet is more important than working out. I still want to get stronger too! 😊
Kettlebell is good, they are my favorite gym equipment ever since I heard of them when listening a podcast of pavel tsatsouline on the Tim Ferriss show.
