Get your work shit in order first, talk to your boss. Once you have a more defined schedule going forward, plan out your gym time. Maybe go before work? You gotta grind, man. I see so many people drop because of "work-life balance", dont be one of them

I already got that figured out. I got unlucky yesterday because i had to SIGN UP first and they weren't there, I would have been able to work out if I already had the membership.
Then I wake up today and I feel like HORSESHIT, I'm fucking sick and sleep deprived. I don't know if I should still lift in this condition and try to rest better after. I don't wanna delay going to the gym AGAIN.
Do I workout through this shitty state?

Cancel membership and build a home gym?

Idk

Go before work?

I work 10 hrs a day, 40-50 hours a week manual labour and still get to the gym

Just build a home gym then. $100-200 rack, $200-300 barbell, $30 pull up bar. Done.

I will work out sleep deprived, you won't be happy with what you lift though. But that's the point, encourages you to get an extra hour of sleep etc

Listen to your body

Also you may not realize how tired you are until you get there, have at least a protein shake before you go but if you can eat something solid its preferred. You'll have to wait longer before going to the gym if you eat solids though (at least 30 mins, closer to an hour)

Links to equipment you guys have confirmed as being legit?

>>40538069
Definitely gonna eat something solid, I'm fucking hungry already. So you think it's a good idea to just push through and start out all fucked up?

This will be day 1 of going to the gym so either way I'd be keeping things lighter.

But god damn I'm sitting here fucking yawning every other 10 minutes, begging to be able to sleep again. But once I'm up I'm up, I can't just "nap".
Anything I can do to feel more ALIVE?

>>40538123
Yea for sure if you're just starting, since you're on fit in guessing you're doing a SS style workout. If you can take your time. If I could go back and tell my self I would, I rushed warmups, I rushed my early weeks.

Its a compound based program and building a strong foundation is how you'll gain strength. Spend the whole hour with the bar if you want to feel the movements.

Also look into accessories early on (facepulls for rear Delta, pull ups/chin ups, dips, some up back work)

Caffeine pills, coffee

Yes I am doing SS, not a complete beginner to the gym, however. And alright.
I'm also concerned about power cleans, because I've never done them. Primarily I'm concerned with form, and space to even practice in.

fuk no. I'd rather take a slap to the face.

Anyone else experienced working out sick/sleep deprived?
