I think it's important to stay on top of your game. Not even joking, but you can get really rusty and behind your normal flows if you completely don't touch a keyboard at all. This being said, the trick for me is to find a balance. At daily work, I need to be completely involved in coding. Writing a lot, deleting a lot, attending meetings, emergency bugs, etc, and it can be draining.
In holidays, I do much more passive activities: reading books, articles and blogs and writing code on paper to solve algorithm interview questions purely on conceptual levels. Thinking about inefficient algorithms, trying to optimize them, looking up online if stuck but always on paper. Then I write some code 2/3x a week
