Read on Hacker NewsI lift weights 3 days a week, first following the program laid out in the book Starting Strength and more recently following "The Texas Method" as described in Practical Programming for Strength Training by the same authors. More recently I've started following the Zone Diet and doing a medicine ball workout 3 days a week (lifting MWF, med ball TuThS). Google "med ball 400". After a year of that I'm starting to look like a heroic Greek statue (my wife likes that), I feel awesome , and my productivity is through the roof. All in 30 minutes max per day (with one day a week off). I bike around town, walk a lot, and run occasionally. I find that the strength training makes running and fast cycling easy when I do it. http://www.amazon.com/Starting-Strength-2nd-Mark-Rippetoe/dp...
