Where to fit in 60 minutes of weight lifting per day?

[RichardTheFrog]

I work every day, sometimes at 2 jobs. I would like to go out at night. If I DON'T go out at night, it kind of defeats the purpose of this whole thing.

Where is there time for the gym? I have the equipment at home, so that might help.

Keep in mind that I have a SERIOUS JOB that I enjoy letting it take up a huge part of my life.

Do it before work or on one of your lunch breaks.

I worked the two jobs thing too and I had time. Luckily one of my job sites had a workout room. I used lunch for workouts. Get at least 30 minutes on work days and non work days get about 2 hrs in.

Reduce your time spent on here and just do it.

 

[Paarth Shah]

Or reduce your time going out and go to the gym instead. Unless you're really gaming girls or learning valuable life lessons, you aren't getting anything positive from going to happy hour with your ex-college roommates. Priorities my friend. At some point you will likely want to change jobs or pursue higher education. The time required for those milestones will likely come out at night, since you'll be working in the day to pay bills. If you have a busy life with other activities, you should really only be going out 2-3x week max.

There's a health and fitness section of the forum that this should probably go to, but you don' have to workout an hour everyday. You can get by with 40 minutes Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday. Upper body Monday and Thursday. Lower body Tuesday and Friday.

I’m so close to joining the gym next to my office and going for 40-50 min at lunch - but it’s packed out mega busy at that time

Find a 24/7 gym and you can go any time, at night early in the morning.

I have gym fear because I'll be weaker than other men and feel they will be watching and judging me. How do you overcome that?

Most gym goers are overweight and weak men. Just do it. No one will be judging you

hahahaha i can imagine thats what obese people feel. i was weak as hell and complete beginner but no one cared


anyway i think you can train at home first. im getting better gains in home than on gym

look my gains on back in 2 months only

shredded !

 

[QuadDeuces]

The strongest guys with the most ripped bodies are the first to help beginners on their way and encourage them.

It's usually the guys who have been training for 6 months who think they're Arnold who make fun of other beginners, because they are projecting their own insecurities.

 

[Murk]

I've been doing the home thing with free weights and callisthenics but I lack the routine and structure - I'll come home from work and be tired or go out drinking.

What back exercises you doing at home?

What back exercises you doing at home?

1handed pushups with legs elevated ---- that was supposed to go for chest but i feel it doing my back more.i think its for core back and mainly lower back
deadlift ---- at first with 2x 10kg dumbbels in hands but then with 50kg barbell. again this one is for lower inner back

at 1:36 for lats and upper back (which u mainly see on pic)

 

[Murk]

So you just a home work out guy or do you go to the gym too

i train at home. i had 10kg dumbbels they are cheap and can train most parts of ur body. i started training 2/3 months ago and have good effects. i made a thread with my results http://www.sosuave.net/forum/threads/before-and-after-pics-1-month-bulking.247247/

 

[EverSure75]

Some good advice has been offered but I have to add something. Please don’t sacrifice sleep.
Especially when lifting...lack of sleep will affect your gains and can actually be quite counterproductive.

I hit the weight room at 4:30 AM, done by 5:45 AM and then the day begins. But then I don't party till wee hours or drink myself silly the night before. Where there is a will, there will be a way.

 

[ImTheDoubleGreatest!]

I remember when I was younger, I would always set up an alarm clock where every morning before school, it would say something like “do pushups and sit-ups you ****ing wimp” or something like that lol. I would roll out of bed every morning and do pushups and sit-ups pretty much to failure. I remember I would wake up at 5:30 in the morning and bike to my gym before I had to leave to get to the train station for class. It was cold and snowing and icy everywhere sometimes and it was probably dangerous to be biking there a lot of times but I did so anyway because I felt that I had to.

discipline and sport/gym doesnt solve all problems. good look, feeling, and confidence yes, but only that
