I work from 7-5 each day, so even when I go to the gym or run a quick errand after work I can be home by 6, which strikes me as a "decent hour", although I suppose that's subjective.
Waking up at 6am takes getting used to but isn't unreasonable in my opinion.
- amyjess 7y agoIt's pretty much impossible for me to go to sleep any earlier than 2am, so getting to work at 7 would require me to only get a couple of hours of sleep at night, which isn't nearly enough for me to function on.
- seanalltogether 7y agoI used to be like that until I started forcing myself to go the the gym in the morning. It was brutal in the beginning but within about 3 or 4 weeks I was asleep at midnight every night.
- decebalus1 7y agoIf during rush hour you can leave work at 5 then do a workout or an errand to get home by 6, then you either live in a village or you're a winged animal.
- vonmoltke 7y agoNot to mention your workout must be really short.
- decebalus1 7y agoNot only that, but even after years of gym going and explicitly trying to find my most efficient workflow, the shower, changing to/from workout gear and driving to/from gym, makes each workout take 2 hours (1 hour training + 1 hour logistics overhead). 2.5 hours if I talk to my gym buddies or use the sauna/hot tub.
- gpanders 7y agoThere is a gym very near my office. I do a short strength training circuit that takes me between 30-45 minutes. My commute is 15-20 minutes (medium size city and I live within 10 miles from work) and I shower at home. Obviously very specific to my scenario, but it works for me.
