????這種時(shí)代潮流針對(duì)那些依然在適應(yīng)“站立辦公”理念，依靠數(shù)據(jù)驅(qū)動(dòng)的筆記本電腦隱士,，提出了一個(gè)有趣且新奇的悖論,。多項(xiàng)研究表明，更健康的員工更值得信賴,，更受尊重,，更受歡迎，總之什么都好,。那么,，優(yōu)化工作績(jī)效怎么能夠不考慮健身因素呢？

????“這是一套技能,，”32歲的尼克?格羅夫納說,。這位洛杉磯CineGrain公司創(chuàng)始人和程序員表示，他是巴里集訓(xùn)營(Barry’s Bootcamp)的忠實(shí)信徒,。巴里集訓(xùn)營的高強(qiáng)度間歇訓(xùn)練方案深受那些希望迅速獲得肌肉線條的名人和華爾街“阿爾法狗”的青睞,?！斑@表明，他們已經(jīng)開始有條有理地處理問題了,。這體現(xiàn)了決心,、智慧和紀(jì)律性；這是一個(gè)獲得效率,，一種系統(tǒng)化生活,，以及我們?cè)诰幊淌澜缢鹬氐囊磺械木€索。這幾乎是一種平衡力,，因?yàn)殄憻捠蔷米膶?duì)立面,。”

????35歲的巴里集訓(xùn)營（該集訓(xùn)營已于6月份進(jìn)駐舊金山）教練考特尼?保羅通過他的Twitter標(biāo)簽#wearemachines傳播這種心態(tài),。比如,，他說，他知道平均步行速度為每小時(shí)3.1英里,，并期望自己的客戶每小時(shí)至少能走3.5英里,。“這跟自尊,、鼓勵(lì),、加油，或者任何出自鍛煉還是一門新科學(xué)那段歲月的老派思想無關(guān),，”他說,。“現(xiàn)在,，這僅僅是數(shù)字,。就是這樣，這些數(shù)字不會(huì)說謊,。如果你這樣做,，這樣吃飯，你就將獲得這些結(jié)果,。如果你沒有獲得這些結(jié)果,，那就說明你在某件事上撒謊了。因?yàn)檫@些數(shù)字不會(huì)說謊,，我非常了解這一點(diǎn),。”

????The zeitgeist presents an intriguing and novel paradox for data-driven laptop hermits who are still getting used to the concept of standing desks. Study after study demonstrates that fitter folks are more trusted, more respected, more welcomed, more everything—so how can optimized job performance not factor in fitness?

????“It’s a skill set,” says Nick Grosvenor, 32, founder and programmer at CineGrain in Los Angeles. Grosvenor says he’s a devotee to Barry’s Bootcamp, the high-intensity interval training regimen favored by get-ripped-quick celebrities and Wall Street alpha dogs. “It shows that they’ve got their act together. It shows commitment, intelligence, discipline; it’s a cue to efficiency, to a systemized life, everything we respect in the programming world. It’s almost a counterbalance, because working out is the antithesis to sitting down.”

????Courtney Paul, 35, a trainer at Barry’s Bootcamp, which opened its San Francisco outpost in June, drives this mentality home with his #wearemachines Twitter hashtag. For example, he says, he knows that average walking speed is 3.1 miles per hour, and expects his clients to cool down at a pace of at least 3.5 miles per hour. “It’s not about self-esteem, or encouragement, or cheerleading, or any of that softer old-school stuff from the days when working out was a new science,” he says. “It’s just numbers now. That’s it. The numbers don’t lie. If you do this, and eat this, you will get these results. If you don’t get the results, you’re lying about something. Because the numbers aren’t doing the lying, I know that.”

????“It’s reaching a point where physical prowess is merging with mental prowess,” says Zak Holdsworth, 32, founder of Hint Health, in San Francisco. Holdsworth is another CrossFit fan, as well as a kitesurfer (and, according to one website, New Zealand’s most eligible bachelor). He says he took blood, saliva, and urine samples to establish his own “personal systems biology baseline.”

????Not that all the discipline and rigor is internal. Holdsworth’s office, for example, allows very select snacks—paleo jerky, or nutrition bars made of crickets, for example. “There will never be a candy bowl on a desk in this office,” he says. “It’s harder to make bad decisions when the options don’t allow it.”

????As software engineers continue to hack and optimize their fitness, does it at some point become a walking résumé? If you want to know how good a programmer is, you can’t just ask him to lift his shirt, can you?

????“People almost don’t believe me when I tell them what I do,” says Vaughn Dabney, 30, a freelance app developer in Washington, D.C. who also founded Soundr, a kind of Vine for audio files (and audiophiles). “They don’t expect it, sometimes don’t accept it. Because I’m not [made from] the mold people think. I never find out what they think I should be, though. I tell them I’m the coolest nerd they’ll ever meet.”

????Dabney, who describes his body as “mesomorph,” says he engages in an hour of targeted workouts every work day. “Things are changing. It’s not just programmers behind the scene,” he says, “You have to be the face. Investors like stories, faces; your body is your brand in a lot of ways. Being in shape is a complement to being fit mentally. It’s getting all the property in Monopoly: the front-end and the back-end, the presentation and the programming—the body and the mind.”

????Which means there’s only one place to go from here: the eight abs of highly effective techies. In time.
