I'm astonished at the amount of programmers who sleep at 5 AM then wake up like 9 AM... yes, this could work, but it's NEVER sustainable in the long run.
One good way to get some of your exercise in is after each pomodoro, for your break, do 50 jumping jacks as fast as you can, and then sit right back done and start another pomo. I've started switching it up and doing 10 pushups as fast as I can instead, and eventually want to work in situps. The key for me is to not have a pomo going while deciding what my priority is, checking email, or getting ready to work on a specific thing. Then in order to get the maximum productivity out of myself I decide on a goal which is a piece of my current priority project, which will take between 3-5 pomos. Any less than that and I lose productivity, any more and it is not as fun because I get worn out and have to take a longer break in between. After I complete my goal, I take a real break where I do something that involves my other senses and relaxes my brain. For example I might take the dog out to go potty, or wash a few dishes, or brush my teeth, or get dressed for the day. If you work from home you can try out starting work in your pajamas and then start getting showered and dressed and stuff on your breaks.

Love the whole list...
Bunch of valuable points ❤️
I would add this one:
102 Do Physical Exercises
Preferably everyday (or at least 3 days a week).
Our jobs require sitting most of the times... And, in years this will have severe effects on the body.
I'm sure everyone loves a specific sport that they would love doing on a frequent basis.
Yes! This is really important!
Also, realizing that we’re more than just developers.
include 103
learn how to post questions on stackoverflow otherwise credits/reputation will go in --
Jumping is the best exercise
This should definitively be on the list! Along with the sleep part. Mind and body health is really important is you want to be good at anything.
So true
I agree on this list, and Yours 102 (could be in the 2nd in the list already)
I'd add:
103 Sleep enough!
+99!
Sleep is the key to almost every problem in life. I prioritize it over literally everything.
Natural methods are best (easy on the melatonin) and I personally enjoy the US military method of sleeping I found here
Sleep is for weak ^^
Strong people Also sleep dude
HELL YEAH!

The reality is what's needed is GOOD sleep, not enough sleep.
"Sleeping as little as 5 hours per night can be better for you than sleeping 8"
Very true,
Your readiness depends on how well you recover (Mentally/Physically) during sleep. Surprisingly many factors have to be in order:
I've been improving it by knowing what effects on those and using Oura to track it (Anyone knows about that nordic high-tech startup? ouraring.com/ )
For me and most of us those are just simple things:
My last night stats (just a few of them):
What app is this?
100 push-up, 100 sit-ups, and 10km Run twice a week will make you one-punch-man :-)
Loool!!! All the S-heroes don't believe it and want me do?!
And be ready to be bald. LOL
Perfect comment.

Yes, so true
