Ask HN: How do you recuperate?

3 pointsby domrdyabout 11 years ago
After long days of working on your startup, weekend coding binges etc., what do you do to get that energy back?<p>Meditating ? Hit the gym ? I&#x27;d appreciate any recommendations!

For me it’s rucking. I live close the Ottawa River. So taking a backpack filled with bricks, a water bladder and just walking along the river - walking past the Canadian parliament on the left and viewing Quebec on the right – is a very calming experience, despite the weight.

Exercise, meditation, reading, video games, and phone&#x2F;facetime with non-local friends. As much as I love losing myself in code, I remind myself the main reason I made my business was so that I could do it on my terms, and that means recognizing burn out faster - leaves me less stressed and enjoying my non working days even more.
