Review of The Healthy Programmer, also applicable to any office work

As long we are making progress in our career gathering experience and work more hard to achieve our personal goals we forgot to take care of our bodies. The Healthy Programmer is a book that was written using programming jargon but that applies to any role that implies staying a bunch of hours in front of a desktop.?

One of the most commendable aspects of "The Healthy Programmer" is its relevance and timeliness. In an age where sedentary work and long hours at the computer have become the norm for many, this book provides a much-needed resource to counteract the adverse effects of such a lifestyle. It recognizes the unique challenges faced by programmers and offers a comprehensive approach to enhancing their physical and mental health.

One of the highlights of the book is the inclusion of actionable tips and exercises throughout the book. These practical suggestions enable readers to implement the advice immediately, positively impacting their health. The author emphasizes the significance of small, sustainable changes rather than advocating for radical, unsustainable transformations. This approach resonates well with the busy lifestyle of programmers. This could apply to many work roles like designers, video editors, product managers, etc.

Although the book is programming oriented the text is clear and concise to teach you to establish a routine from scratch and receive feedback from your body to improve the quality and mix exercises.

?Feeding is another topic that the book discusses in detail giving you clear examples, routine tips, color combinations, and how to feed correctly following a diet.?

After applying some tips from the book for a couple of months, making regular exercising and including more vegetables in my diet helped me to stay more focused which is appreciated in this kind of work that requires us to think a lot. That’s why I prepared my domestic gym ??

In general, the book clarifies that will not replace a medical specialist, all things you will apply should be supervised by a doctor.?
