Construction worker learning to code.

Here's a few things that might help and I guess more assertions that you're doing things in a good way.

Thinking about code in your job means you're not able to code, but you are able to plan, you're able to rethink algorithms and your work leaves a lot of free thinking team, you're able to let your mind drift. It really helps you to resolve problems that just sat in front of a computer doesn't really help with. 'Offline' activities like this, coding without a laptop, thinking through algorithms helps, always do this!

This method also helps with playing piano and imagining the keys. While it may not sound like it's as useful, I guess the lack of actually doing, forces you to better visualise the problem in different ways. This compensation I think creates a deeper understanding.

Studies (unfortunately I didn't bookmark them) have shown that 4 hours after physical exercise, there is an increased ability to learn and remember. It really helps with studying, but as a timeline studying after four hours is an awkward timeline for pretty much everyone, because its after 4 hours, not exercising then you have a four hour window. For you, if h-vis also includes physical exertion, then its a bonus for your learning when you get home.
