After getting a full-time job I honestly can't blame people for getting fat anymore.
After 8 hours of work and 1.5 hours of commuting the absolute last thing I want to do is go to the gym. I mean, I still do it but by the time I get back home I have like four hours of free time left to myself. Fuck that. If I was a normie I wouldn't even bother.
Have U tried eating less
If you have a full time job you should have enough disposable income to get another gym membership or a gym membership that you can work out at more than one location. I have a gym at a 5 min walk from work, so i go there for 45 minutes during lunch or straight after work for 45 min. (which means i don't get stuck in rush hours traffic either). So i get home at 17:30 instead of 17:00.
I can't believe that people complain about not having time to do shit while working 40 hours a week.
I only work 60 and have plenty of time to hit the gym 4 days a week and do tons of stuff outside of work.
>>34863775
>I only work 60 and have plenty of time to hit the gym 4 days a week and do tons of stuff outside of work.
Do tell, I'm genuinely interested in how you break your day down. Do you get 6-7 hours of sleep every night? Do you commute or work from home?
>>34863775
this.
when my mother used to work shed work ~85hrs/week and still made time to go running/gym/shit a few times a week
>>34863725
>I still do it but by the time I get back home I have like four hours of free time left to myself.
DonĀ“t complain. There are peopple that work full time and study at night and still find motivation to work out.
This is why I go to the gym in the morning.
I once had a job near my gym, and I went during my lunch break.
>>34863873
Yeah and there's people in Africa who work 90 hours a week in diamond mines for a cup of rice a day. there is always gonna be people less fortunate than you, that does not invalidate your right to complain since everything is subjective.
>>34863875
>going to the gym in the morning
damn I have never been able to do that thats fucking hard in the morning my man.
>>34863751
Some of us lift for more than 45 minutes, cant leave work long enough to complete our workput, and cant come back to work covered in sweat.
You knkw, actual professionals.
I still lift late at night but your post reeks of unfounded arrogance. Enjoy your 45 minute "workout."
>>34863932
>implying 45min is too short for a workout
sure senpai
>>34863845
Sacrificing sleep can confirm.
Don't do that though. Always make time for sleep.
>>34863725
lazy eye. looks lazy in general. 2/10 would not bang
>>34863725
ya i feel you. I was working night shift at walmart 12-9 and sometimes 12-12. after that shit I just wanted to crawl in bed just to get up and do it again.
I actually lost weight but going to the gym became a once a week thing. so I was lifting shit all night at work
>>34863873
here
>>34863875
I work days and study nights.
I get up at 6am and get ready, 10 min drive to the gym. Get there by 7am. Leave around 8 after cleaning myself up and getting changed.
45 minute drive to work. Start work at 9. Finish around 4:30-5pm, drive half an hour to uni. Class from 6-8:30pm. Get home at around 9. Eat, shower by 10. Fuck around for about half an hour then it's bedtime. Get 7 hours sleep every weeknight.
You have it easy OP.
>>34863919
You'll get used to it more quickly than you'd think.
>>34863725
so what?
I work 8 hours a day and still find time to go to the gym 5 times a week. Usually, I work out early before going to work.
OP is not going to make it
>>34863957
Fuark thats only 30min of time for yourself by day ?
I would litteraly kill self.
Sleep earlier, wake up earlier. When will you get it?
This will allow you to hit the gym early in the morning and go to work with that pump and see female Co workers mirin
>>34863932
>Enjoy your 45 minute "workout."
You're a fucking idiot. 45 minutes 3 times a week is more than enough to build a great physique.
>>34863725
I know what you mean. It's brutal. I honestly can't believe 40 hours a week is the work schedule everyone agreed on. It's awful.
I'd suggest finding something you like to do so you don't feel demotivated after work, or something that incorporates fitness.
I've decided that I'm going to apply for membership sales jobs at gyms so that I can work my way up to club manager. I have the resume for it and it will be worth the pay cut.
>>34863963
I love keeping myself really busy actually. All I do in that half an hour is channel surf and check out my mail anyway.
I play video games, but only on Saturday nights if I'm not out or doing an assignment.
I usually lurk /fit/ at work. Like now.
Also I only go to Uni 4 nights a week. I usually socialize on Friday/Sat nights.
>>34863982
You are great motivation for me senpai thank you.
>Wasting your time driving places
>>34863982
Oh and..
I spend Sunday doing general household chores, and cooking. Usually go to my parents' place for dinner.
>>34863725
Do it before work faggot. Then you can be a tired cunt at work instead of tired cunt at the gym.
>>34863991
>wasting your time/life on public transport
>>34863932
Have you tried actually lifting heavy?
I work as a construction engineer, so i can go to our changing room, get into my workout clothes, run to the gym in 2 min and get some warm up. Then i do a SS type routine with some hypertrophy exercises afterwards, doesn't take longer than 45 min, and i have 5 minutes to get dressed and shower and then walk back to work with 10 minutes to spare and then eat at my desk. Only weak retards work out more than 45 to 1 hour every time.
>>34863725
Time management.
>>34863725
>the absolute last thing I want to do is go to the gym
Never fucking making it. The gym is what gets me hype towards the end of a workday. As long as you look at training as a chore you're never fucking making it m8.
>>34864004
>having shitty public transport
>>34864016

if it's anything more than that then you seriously have a problem. Gym is never a priority.

>>34864032
You're just a lazy cunt. Go get fat somewhere else you weak bitch.
>>34863725
Nigga I used to work a warehouse job, heavy lifting all day for sometimes 16 hours. Still made time to lift.
>>34864032

>Public transport is universally for chumps.
America, everyone
Underground: 15 minutes commute
Car: 1 hour, can only park in my ass
Public transportation doesn't universally suck as in merrica, the land of free oil
I work 12 hour days 5 days a week. I get an hour lunch break on each shift.
Do you know what I do with that hour? I run sprints down the road. If I can steal an extra 30 without any issue, I'll go to the local 24h gym and lift.
You make me sad, OP.
Gym is a chore? What the hell, my gym is the reason i can stand my job, it's what motivates me and give me something to look forward to. Theres no better feeling getting back from the gym feeling exhausted and getting that lifters high. If you think its that bad you should probably change your routine to something you enjoy, who cares if its not as good. Working out should be a hobby not something you have to force yourself to.
>>34864013
This
Also, think of your full time job as a new form of workout : it's going to take some time to get used to it and to find when you can take time and have the energy to hit the gym. Then, depending on the type of workout you do you can find an efficient schedule to train. If you lift really heavy shit, make your workouts revolve around the weekend, like lower body friday evenings, upper body sunday, and a whole body lighter workout on wednesday.
But unless you really need to lift and go to the gym, remember that you can burn calories and stay fit simply by going to work by bicycle and investing in some home equipment you can use whenever you feel like it.

I only get half an hour break which I spend eating, but I always work out directly after work then go home. At first I thought I'd be too exhausted after work, but really there's a difference between mental fatigue and physical fatigue. I may feel really tired but my muscles aren't.

What do you do?
I own a restaurant, and lease out 3 residential properties, but I still go to my day job. Staying at home bores me to no end.
I still live in my college town and commute an hour to and from a Hospital in the closest metropolitan area. Yeah it sucks, it's my first job out of uni so I can't complain, but the real kicker is that we have a free fitness center. It's kind of small, but if you eat while you work plenty of my coworkers and I use our hour lunch to workout.

>>34864076
Unless you're flipping burger at the local Crap Donald's you should understand the concept of investing in equipment. Personally I have pic related mountain bike, bought 4 years ago for ~2500$ and ride it 20mn every morning and evening. It costs less than a car in every possible way, doesn't need gas, and burns my useless calories while keeping my cardio on edge.
Time to grow up anon.
People in this thread doesn't want help or tips. It's just a bunch of lazy fatasses looking for affirmations from other lazy fatasses so they don't have to feel bad about their bad life choices. There's a reason why it's called a "WORKout" since you actually have to work for it. Never gonna make it.
Maybe you should get a decent job. I just got my very first job at 21, and im loving it. Sales rep at the third biggest european logistics company, only starting work at 8:45 in the morning, finishing at 17:30. Workplace got its own gym, sometimes i can take an hour break during the day to go lift. Boss is bro, coworkers are cool, pay pretty gud, driving every day because fuck public transport.

You filthy goyim should be happy to work 60 hours a week for the chosen people's firms to make us lots of shekels! You don't need to exercise, think how much more work you could do if you cut out exercise! We especially don't need white men getting stronger than they already are, why that would be anti semetic. You should be working 70 hour weeks with no paid overtime to make up for the holocaust that Aryana monsters such as yourselves started!
It's pretty funny watching people struggle with a 40 hour work week after being at a job that had 60-70 hour work weeks.
I'm really glad I quit, don't get me wrong, but man, normie jobs are so damn easy it's insane. I don't understand how people can have such poor time management skills. Unless there's a kid involved.

I could be working though, but I make enough in that 6 months that I don't really need to, especially because I lease out properties which earns a nice secondary income. I also operate several YouTube channels that generate a respectable amount of AdSense money.

How do you get around the copyright and the "inappropriate" claim that YouTube hits you with? I'm trying to do similar shit
There is a reason to why the two most crowded hours at most gyms are early morning and early night. Before work and after work.
>>34863890
I can't fucking stand this 'everything is subjective' shit pseudo intelligence philosophy that originates from shit schooling turning people into forgiving whiny bitches. No everything isn't subjective. Working 90 hours in a diamond mine in Africa is objectively way fucking worse. It's objectively more hours worked in objectively unsafe unhealthy working conditions for objectively less of a reward with objectively poorer living standards. God you're suck a fucking idiot for uttering 'everything is subjective.' If you complain about having to answer so many emails at your white collar shit office job and you don't do something about it like starting your own job or becomig a construction worker in a mine you're just a whiny little bitch.

It's honestly not that hard. You're just making excuses. If anything you have more time as a professional because work problems end at 5pm. In school the excuse was any time free could be spent studying or doing that project that's due in a week.
Get good day boy.
>>34863957
Thats not realistic at all for anyone with any sort of social life. Having a family or gf that schedule falls apart. Taking care of an aging parent it doesn't work.

American society in general has a pretty radical Protestant work ethic. I'm sure most people here have had or seen conversations among friends where having no free time and working all day is almost a point of pride.
I'm not condoning being a NEET, but being constantly buried in work is not an ideal way to live either. I recently managed to cut back my work hours because between that and school, I was having practically no free time to myself or to visit my family; now, I have the time to do my homework and have a solid amount of time on the weekends to do what I want.

>>34864555
What I mean is that rigid planning of schedules like that aren't practical for most people. You think it will be easy to find a girlfriend (let alone wife) who accepts that he has 3 hours of free time per day? What about when your kids need help with shit? When your boss makes you stay late? When your parents start shitting themselves and need constant supervision because they refuse to go into a home or you can't afford it?
I just think a lot of the guys here think it's easy, because they have very few people depending on them and don't have much of a social life. When you're 30 or 40 things are way different. Obviously you should stay as active as possible, but there is a reason so many people get fat later in life despite being in good shape until then. It gets fucking hard, and eventually you aren't the most important person in your life.

youre honestly fucking retarded. this entire board is full of faggots who hear one troll say something in an arrogant way and then stick to it like the fucking bible. unless youre explicitly doing cardio or something you can stop at any time, doing an actual routine takes far more than 45 fucking minutes.
the last thing you want to do in this world is limit your routine to a strict time. you probably also have certain days for certain muscle groups, which often completely destroys potential progress.

>>34863725
lazy piece of shit. that's what my everyday looks like. 8 hr of work. 1.5hr commute there. 1.5hr back. gym after work mandatory. all day. every day.
I get up at 6AM every working day, hit the gtm for 1 hour and 15 minutes, then work 9-10 hours a day as a programmer, come home to prep my meals for the next day and arrange my household, 1 hour of time for reading and then sleep for 8 hours. It's called discipline. Normies complain about 'not having enough time' and then sit on their ass for two hours watching TV. If you make the most of your time and learn to get shit done effectively you will appreciate your hours and not waste them.
>>34863725
There's this thing called the morning that you can use when you are freshest and most motivated. After work you won't have to worry about the gym because you've already gone. It takes some adjustment, but work is still no excuse for not taking care of oneself.

NEVER GONNA MAKE IT
When I first started to lift in the mornings it was hard as fuck. I would always be tempted to go to sleep a tiny bit later than scheduled at night (half an hour of sleep isn't going to make a difference, is it?). When the alarm would go off at 5:30AM I would *hate* myself from not getting those 30 minutes and would swear to myself to not do it again.
Every morning I'd have my alarm clock play this upon sounding: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbkZrOU1Zag
It gradually gets easier. When I hit the gym in the morning and go to work afterwards I still have a nice pump going, which feels awesome. I also see all those people sleepy and moody while I feel fresh as fuck.
I'd never go back to lifting in the evenings.
if you're working so much how do you find the time to eat then

I used to work 80 hours per day for 4 months (contract). I worked for home remotely so there's that but I believe the only way I managed to do it at all was having a routine that included lifting.
Training days (Tue, Thur, Sat): Wake up, eat, work for 3 hours, training 2hrs, eat, shower, work for 7-9 more hours.
Non training days: Wake up, shower, 9-12 hours working straight broken up by eating.
If I worked less I either played games, read a book or spent time with the gf.
Sunday: Work for 6 hours, go shopping for food for the whole week, lift, shower, book or a date with the gf.
I'm not telling you to do this because that was a hectic time, but the thing I
am sure is that:
1) Having a routine makes organizing time very easy
2) Lifting and sleeping well makes you think straight and be very efficient even under high work loads.

Why no more rest? Shorter rests =! more hypertrophy, and longer rest does not mean less hypertrophy
If you rest too short youll be too tired for you next set and will miss reps (== less hypertrophy)
if you rest too long (5+ mins) you'll cookd Dow too much which makes you more susceptible to injury (== nogainz)
>>34864731
This.
My gf's mom and dad both got pretty heavy apparently through the late 90's into the mid 2000s. Mom divorced Dad because of the distance created when she starting taking fitness seriously.
Mom is running marathons, speed-biking, and met some guy on a kayaking facebook group and she's the happiest she's ever been in her life, and in good shape for her age.
Dad starts to change diet to super-clean food. Meets qt semi-hippy biologist who does border inspections on animals crossing the Canadian-American border for diseases and shit. Has over 9000 acres of land. He hunts, traps, fishes, and farms all on her property. Happiest and most fit he's been.
Both still love their daughters and respect each-other as parents and adults either way. They just sacked up and realized they way they were living wasn't for them.
Sometimes it doesn't work out for people, sometimes this is what it takes.
>>34863725
i felt the same way as you when i first got a job OP and the solution is to either go to a gym closer to you or use a home gym.

I see people not getting /fit/, I get it's not for everyone. What I don't see is how people get dangerously fat.
I'm on my first cut now and this shit is simple. With just shy of 2000 calories per day in me, I'm 500 under my TDEE. There's so much nutrition I can put into that 2000 calories and I make meat a staple part of my dinners without fail, so I end up feeling full at the end. Sure, it requires a shred of discipline to not gorge on sweets or other calorie dense foods... but even then, just take one day on the chin if it happens and saddle back up. Even the fattest fucks can drop down to a healthy size with a year of basic discipline.
/fit/ is another story though. When I started my most recent job, I nearly fell off the bandwagon entirely. 42.5 hour working weeks as standard, 10 hours commute weekly and that's without considering the extra work I put in including working through my lunch. When I set off home, gym didn't even cross my mind and I had a girlfriend expecting me home. Fast forward 4 months, I'm now hitting the gym 5 days a week for an hour at a time. I relish the workout, but getting it to stack up with my new job was tough (last job was 5 hours less per week and an hour commute per week).
A work colleague of mine talked to me about the gym today, he said he didn't see the point. He's got the discipline to hit the gym, but no drive. He doesn't want to be big, he wants to focus his attention on enjoying life, and that's fine. I put plenty of effort into my body and my career that I have little time for more, but those are the choices I make. 4 months ago, I put other priorities first.

I leave the house at 7:15am, get home at 7pm, and still manage to lift five times a week. You're either dedicated, or you're not.
I work 50+ hours a week.

I find time for my other hobbies and interests on the days I don't lift.
Now, one type of workers that deserve sympathy would be sailors. The time I worked as a seaman, I'd be one month on board and one month on shore. Lucky for me I didn't lift then, or I'd be on the walls about the gains I could be making instead of sitting on my ass drinking tea with the lads.
>>34867025
>and then I told this goyim: "it's called dignity and self respect holding down a job"
I work 40hrs/week, still find the time to go to the gym 3 times a week, go swimming once a week and train at my martial arts gym once a week.
I also read, play vidya (admittedly very casual nowadays) and do some woodworking occasionally.
Oh, and also find time to take care of my two sons.
Every day is packed with stuff to do, but I don't feel I'm missing out on my "best years" as one poster put it, just because I don't have that many hours to dick around per day as I used to when I was a student.
Y'all need some fulfilling stuff in your life.
>>34863725
>implying not going to the gym makes you fat
>implying it's not the shit ton of food they eat
sure thing familia
also go to the gym before work
I've been working 8 hour days for a while and it doesn't stop me, but I work afternoons so I go before work so I use my energy in the gym not at work. If it's a priority of yours you'll make time for it, sadly the gym is typically the highlight of my day so I never miss it.
PS. working more than 50+ hours a week is good goy status, spend all your time working and convince yourself some stupid shiny car makes you happy
>>34864589
>no warm-up

>>34864589
>squatting heavy with 1 min rest
Alright mate, i'll explain to you why the guy said "workout". Because you go and do machines or basic exercises with very little weight that leave you rested after the set, then you go around and do the total 4 exercises of 3 sets each and of 10 reps. This is obviously the mindset of someone who knows little and "i just want to get toned". You might not lift, but some of us do
>>34867174
having all free time in the world is useless anyway if you don't have a shitload of money. And even then, skydiving and traveling around the world every day gets boring after a while.
>>34866948
Honestly taking a train for three hours to work, while a pain in the ass, isn't that bad
You can use that for your mental gains like reading, or unsociable austist passions like video games and things
It's driving for hours to work that's retarded because it's literally dead time, unless you have audiobooks or something you're just sat focussing on travelling which is an utter fucking waste
Why is everyone on /fit/ so obnoxious
lmao at all the sheep being proud and feeling superior working more than 40 hours.
I work 40hrs and it's more than enough, why are people proud of having no free time at all?
The day has 24hrs, 8 sleep, 8 work and 8 for you, that's how it should be but you have to sacrifice free time only to make work possible which sucks.

Getting a home gym was fucking glorious for me. It's like a man cave that gives you gains. After putting my kids to bed I get my ass to my home gym, put Star Trek on Netflix and lift to the sound of Captains Picard and Sisko's soothing voices. Some people like to binge watch netflix while eating or drinking wine, I do it in the company of a barbell, with a brotein shake

Wish me luck, bros. I need the money for creatine.

You still got plenty of time to make it as a normie.
>>34867223
>having all free time in the world is useless anyway if you don't have a shitload of money.
That's not true, I make pretty decent money but almost all my leisure activities are free or cheap. Lifting, fishing, reading, and I wanna get into bow and rifle hunting (not really cheap but not hugely expensive).
If money wasn't an issue I'd probably still work 20hrs a week (my job is pretty satisfying despite long hours), and spend the rest of the time lifting, doing and learning cool outdoors stuff like hunting.
>>34867595
>I'd rather late bloom than waste it
That's a good attitude. I take it back, good luck. Are you gonna use the money to study something?

My biggest issue is video games right now to be honest.
I work 40 hours a week but I don't go to school, which I could do, nor do I exercise that much. Its all because I just want to play video games when I get home

>the last thing I want to do is go home and cook food
That would have been atleast half valid, being too tired to cook for yourself so you resort to junk food and fast food. Going to the gym doesn't matter worth a fuck for losing weight, just stop eating shitty food.
That's all they have to do, just not drink 10 pounds of microwaved butter and a 12 liter of soda every day. Have a can of beans for supper, have some oatmeal for breakfast.
>>34864032
I'd just hate for it to end up being a chore to work out. Burning out is my worst fear in physical fitness. SL 5x5 doesn't take up too much time, but the warm up and the stretching afterwards take up most of my time.
>Not choosing a workplace that has a gym for their employees
Why would you ever do that?
mfw I'm alone almost every day after work in a 2000 sqft gym with everything from useless machines to squat rack. Only exception are a couple of cardio bunnies. But I got the weights all to myself.
I want to see the physiques of the tards in this thread that say they only take 45 minutes to work out.
>>34868543
