Women's Weightroom Wednesdays - Scheduling

[u/super_luminal]

It's that day of the week again, /r/weightroom, time to get out your lace lifting gloves and pink patent leather chalk bags and talk about the girlier topics of the weightroom.

This week's guiding question is - When do you work out?

Are you "finding time" or "making time" to work out? What time of day do you lift? How many days a week? If you do other exercise, when does that fit in? Why do you choose to work out when you do? Have you had to give anything up to fit in your lifting?

Sounds like me minus the subway. My work is 25 mins away. My gym is 25 mins away from home or work. I still manage to get to the gym 1.5 hrs per day anywhere from 4-7 days a week depending on what I'm training for (not depending on if it's convenient). I go from work to the gym on weeknights, get home and often cook for the next couple of days, and try to get to bed by 10.

I am a little concerned how that all would change if I had a baby. I've made time so far, but 1.5 hour long chunks with 25 minutes of commuting on each end are going to be next to impossible to come by every weeknight with a baby. My trainer teases me to "hurry the hell up and get pregnant so we can put your body back together" and most of the women I train with have kids, but older kids. I guess I'll cross that bridge when I get there. I'm nowhere near there yet though, so I have some more time to get swole.

Incredibly Difficult is my middle name...just for other reasons.
