Wow, if I took that as personally targeted it would be one of the meanest and most incorrect assumptions i've ever had thrown my way..... Then again it is the internet and you do not know me. Your ballpark assumption would probably be correct more than once.

I can only assume that you are mostly correct about carpeltunnel, I am no doctor or medical engineer. I would think ergonomics play a huge roll in whether or not your doing something 'correctly' or in a way that accelerates harm to the body that we do to ourselves consistently as thats kind of the point, and they push that very hard in the workplace anymore.

Me personally, I run, I play sports, I have other hobbies, I have a semi-desk job where I only sit at a computer 1-2 hours a day usually. All of this causes harm in different ways. I'm sure my knees and back hate that I run. I play instruments which also put my hands in odd positions. I most definately do not follow your prescribed day of lazy.
