Absolutely this.
I have a regime of dumbbell exercises plus at least 5x25 pressups spread through the day.
In this I'm lucky to work from home - not everyone has the freedom to knock out a set in their office environment.
Maintaining condition goes far in mitigating the stress of the particular motor repetitions required by our profession, but I also find that periodically firing up the physical engine calalyses problem solving too.
I used to have a lot of wrist trouble (carpal tunnel I assume) from drumming and computing incessantly, but as long as I stick to the regime, I have no issues.
