Hobbies as an IB Analyst

IB Analyst new to NYC: No idea what sort of hobbies one can sustain as a full-timer in IB. What's fun and compliments your lifestyle? What works? What doesn't?

How do you guys enjoy yourselves and stay an interesting human being a schedule-friendly way when you have limited free hours? Looking for tips from people who've done it well or seen it done well.

Thanks folks!
