That reminds me of a TED talk I saw where the speaker was saying that something he's noticed with a lot of academics and tech types is that they only care about flexing their mental muscles; their bodies are only useful for moving their brain from one place to another, so a lot of what they build is done to make it so they have to use their bodies less.

My experience in Silicon Valley is that tech workers are drastically more fit than the general public.
Except for the brain works better when the body is healthier.
