How the frick do yall have an hour 5 days a week to just go jogging? Maybe it’s the age of my kids and them being so into sports but I barely have time to lift 3x per week
Not sure why you're being down voted but I absolutely do not have time to run/lift in the evenings. If it's not baseball, it's track, or church, or football. Literally every day of the week. I've started lifting at 4:30 and although I hate it, it is the best way. Lift 4 days, walk 3 days.

Right there with you. I don't have a home gym (yet) so I have to lift before or after work. After just isn't an option with everything my kids have going on (dance, band, gymnastics, volleyball, etc). If my wife wasn't able to bring them to school (leaves at 5:40am and gets home at 5:50PM), then I'd basically be limited to lifting on Sat/Sunday mornings or weekdays at 3AM/10PM. My typical weekday is to walk to the gym at 5:40AM, workout for roughly 75min, maybe 15-20 min in sauna (if I have time), walk back home (3 mile roundtrip), shower, start work. If I have a Saturday workout planned, I start my day at 3:30 or 4.
Right now I'm in a pattern of lifting 3 days, then 1 day cardio (stationary bike). No matter what day it is, I walk at least 3 miles everyday.

because a lot of people dont have kids or dont have kids in multiple sports or multiple kids in sports at one time
i leave the house before 630 and usually dont get home until 730ish because of all the sports for the 3 kids.
ftr i didnt say 7 hours per week is crazy but many with kids literally dont have 7 hours per week. i have 6 max so i use that to lift and then i walk during the day or while they are at practice
and talking abotu BBer lifespan...well yea you are looking at guys that get on stage. nobody is talking abotu that
dunno why people have to bring up extreme examples..want me to bring up life spans of competitive marathon runners and compare? both are extreme sports.

I've thought about getting into the office a little early and then just lifting on my lunch break for this reason. My gym is right down the road from my office. I won't be able to do some super intense workout, but if I'm focused and build around supersets it should be fine.
