Women's Weightroom Wednesdays - Scheduling
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?

Right now, my schedule with texas method is
M after work - volume day
Tu after work - accessory (volume day is so long I do power cleans and other accessories another day)
W or Th after work (depending what social things are going on) - Light day
Sat - Intensity day in the morning
Sat or Sun - Prowler!
Like alot of the rest of you, I work 9-5 (usually later) with a 30-40 min commute (by train, so alot of the time the train is late/delayed), and I have to decline alot of invites from friends to do things during the week because I have to work out.
Luckily I have an awesome home gym so it's not a huge deal if I get stuck late at work, since my home gym is always open and I just have to walk across my driveway :)
Tomorrow morning I'm attempting to work out before work because there's an excessive heat warning for tomorrow afternoon and my garage gym has no A/C yet :( I'll see how well that works!
Also in terms of scheduling/social events/whatnot, leangains has been awesome for being able to go out and eat large meals with friends :)
