In my experience, it doesn't help

It's better to spend that time studying

I do calisthenics. Anything that gets some endorphins going helps; depression is mitigated when high on dem opioids.

There's a reason most geniuses are skinny faggots and most brainlets are /fit/.

>>8299802
Being both fit and intelligent enough to maintain a 3.8 gpa is bretty gr8. Just an hour a day, lift one day, bicycle the next. That's all it takes. Hell, even calisthenics works if you're waiting on the bus or sitting still.

No. There is a difference between someone who exercises in any capacity and has a healthy, well-toned body and someone who sits on his ass all day reading books and has shitty posture, low muscle tone, etc.

They're both skinny, but one's a skinnyfag.

Is there any good cardio excersize I can do inside? I can't be under the sun for long periods of time because of a skin condition and I work at night for the same reason. I only have time to job during winter because of the longer nights.

>>8299930
>>8299935
Say that to muh natty bagina.

Anyway, only an hour a day, work hard and push yourself to the limit each time you can and you'll see fantastic results within three months. Go for some long ass hikes every once in a while (there is bound to be a club that plans this kind of shit at your college) and you'll get to socialize while you work out. You can even make study buddies in the campus gym if you offer to spot someone or ask for a spot.

There is absolutely no reason for physical health and intelligence to be considered mutually exclusive.

Paid for itself two years ago, only a year into owning it.

I still use the campus gym, but the squat racks and cages are almost always filled with 18 year olds in snapbacks doing stupid shit. I'll mostly use the rowing machine and do accessory exercises bur sometimes I'll do Deadlifts and squats when there is a bar available.

My legs are like a German speed cyclists.

What? Cool. I do have a loose ligament genetic disorder that gives me 13 to 33 percent more muscle mass than the average population though.

But on topic, lifting or rowing in the morning helps me focus all day. If I don't do it I might as well have ADD. I'm constantly lifting cases of beer and kegs at my job as well, and that pays for my education.

Lifting and cardio have many, many benefits.

main lifts with a 5/3/1 program, I throw a day in for wacky/supportive lifts (like abs/arms) but focus on month-to-month progression on DL/Bench/Squat.

Phyics grad btw. I typically run a couple times a week on off days, throw in some yoga to help out with posture/stretching/evening out flexibility.

>>8300808
I do bouldering at my uni, once or twice a week, and aikodo 3-4 times, it all depends on how much time do I have. Also I commute by bicycle

>>8300034
Non-normies who start lifting normally skip bodybuilding altogether and go for the powerlifting lifestyle

It's an evolutionary trait. When the body is doing physical work it somewhat thinks it's in danger so it boosts up brain power for some reason. I don't know why it works but before studying I do about 50-100 push-ups and my brain feels powerful, I can focus on the material with ease, and I can think logically better. This was first seen in rats when experimenters learned that when under stress they think more logically so they can escape the situation vs those who weren't failed the test. Also while on this subject. If I take the memory rna from someone who knows a lot about a certain subject will I know that subject now too or does that only work with basic things like where to go in a maze?

>>8301721
The majority also doesn't have a choice because they don't have parents who coddle them to death. Spoiled elitist thinking he's hot shit because he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and never had to work a day in his life.

A lot of these effects, to their own degree, can be spurred by intake of flavanols in cacao. Unfortunately theobromine's ultimate effect on cAMP, vasodilation, and chronic phenylethylamine intake, can cause crippling anxiety and a general poor physical feeling that negates many of the neurogenesis, angiogenesis, increased blood flow, etc, aspects.

But yes. Exercise and being active is important. Mentally and physically.

That's it?
I work 80 hour work weeks and study. I still work out everyday, Heavy lifting 2 hours a day 4 times a week. Cardio 35 minutes a day 3 times a week.

I don't do stupid shit like 'browse /sci/' on the weekdays. If I'm on a bus, sure, why the fuck not browse sci. Walking to the gym? Sure. Why not.

Actually sitting down at home and burning hours browsing the internet? Fuck no. If you wanted to find exercise time and or exercise activities you like, You would have fucking found the time and activities to do. Stop making lame no time excuses. I guaran-damn-tee it's possible in your schedule. Question is whether or not you WANT to. It's ok if you don't want to. It really fucking is. Don't make the excuse, just say you don't want to. Are there benefits? Sure. Are there downsides? Yeah. But there's also benefits and downsides to what you're doing right now.

Weekends are when I do nothing for the sake of nothing. Lifting heavy things and putting them down is still part of that nothing.

Also, the "Frontloading" everyone keeps laughing at you for is your schooling and obtaining of a PHD. You're picking up a PHD at a pace that isn't allowing you any experience. In just about any of the sciences, there are ample opportunities to work in your field and go to school. The experience gained is invaluable accompaniment to your study. Both in application of concept, better room to 'think', time to actually ask and answer questions, future employer viewpoints, future business partner viewpoints.......

Could go on all day. Your PHD isn't worth shit. A company doesn't want a piece of paper, they want a PERSON. The piece of paper is just nice because it says that person might not be a piece of shit and should know x list of shit. That piece of paper could bar your entry, but you still need to be a person capable of social interaction.
Kind of up to you to determine if you can fulfill the other requirements other than what the piece of paper is saying you know.

>>8305154
Sure, sure. You work 16 hour workdays, get home, eat, study, sleep for 5-3 hours per night, and still somehow work out 2 hours on 4 of those days.

Etc. Just stop, and shut up. I didn't read the rest of your post, but if you have a point to make just do it strictly in the abstract so you don;t make a fool of yourself with what are at best blatant exaggerations and half truths.

DDP yoga. Whoops. Diamond Dallas Page yoga.

Helps my posture and shit after smashing my collarbone to bits. I also fucked up my entire leg, foot to hip and all the muscles in between after getting hit by pick up truck. My ligaments were misaligned which lead to all sorts of strange sensations, cramps, and a loss of strength in my limbs.

Yoga will help with your silly leg cramp.
