Work out schedule and work balance
ad
Just curious how every else balances work out schedule with work schedule. I recently started a new job working 12 hour shifts. Basically 2 days on 2 days off. I was worried about my workouts , but it seems like the forced rest maybe beneficial . During my workouts I've felt great. How's every one else balance there schedule with work. I probably overtrained before.

I get up at 3am. Hit the gym at work by 5 30 .work till 230 luckiky my job is flexible with hours. Then I go pick up my daughter and get home around 4. Then try to chill and play with my daughter..eat dinner and get her to bed then I go to bed and repeat Monday through Friday. Shit ain't easy that's for sure but motivation is something I am not lacking. But balancing is the key keep whays important and drop the rest..for example laundry doesn't get touched till the weekend. Lol. I cook all my meals on Sunday. Iron my clothes for the week on Sunday...fuck my life is predict able and boring shoot me now lmao.
Its all good I love structure and consistency. Otherwise my ADD will fuck with my head ill be all over the place.
Ps I can't type on my phone..fat finger effect
Work pays the bills so as long as I get to the gym at least 4 days a week I am happy. Rest is good it's when your body grows. I take a week off every 4 months also just to let everything heal. I come back stronger and feel better.
AnonI do the same..go to the gym in the morning before work starts...by Friday I'm so exhausted and smoked... if feeling good on weekends I hit up the gym again.. I prettymuch put all my other hobbies on the back burner...shooting, try and ride my motorcycle in to work some days instead of doing rides when Im off. As for the family, me and the wife well "cuddle" before bed, and Ill play with my son for about 30min to an hoir before he goes to bed... man its exhausting
