Do you ever feel that fitness gets in the way of your academic/professional/etc

>>42379107
is this cropped porn? google is sending me to mudslime land.

>You could be using workout time to study instead.

Yes, but exercising helps with memory, concentration, energy, and all kinds of things mental. It doesn't take a lot of googling to learn that.

Exercise is a fundamental component to a successful and healthy life.

why aren't you studying RIGHT NOW instead of posting on 4chan?

>>42379107
Not really. I lift with my boss, wrote him a workout program.
I'm way more productive and clear headed after a gym session.
I listen to audio books when I run and bike, some relevant to my profession, so I'm making mental gains

Wrong

He's right faggot.

>>42379336
No, you have a finite amount of energy and using it to lift iron is a waste.

>>42379357
Fucking faggot lmao

Already graduated college

>I feel guilty when I work out when I haven't done my schoolwork.
Takes me 1.5-2hrs a day to go to the gym. I would spend 3x that shitposting on 4chan. Do you feel guilty for making this thread instead of studying anon?

>>42379357
>literally training to increase the amount of energy and power you have
There is literally a finite amount of energy in the universe and using it to power your feeble mind and even feebler body is a waste

A mate of mine is doing his PhD in pretty hectic radiotherapy shit and still finds the time to be pretty buff.

Be a sick cunt, do both. Be like Rob.

this is achievable natty r-RIGHT ?

>>42379107
No. I feel like everything else gets in the way of lifting.

Work especially. If I didn't work for weeks at a time away from home, I'd be a lot stronger and bigger. In 1 and a half years I probably missed 10-12 months of lifting due to this gains goblin.

>>42379107
I read while doing cardio

Boy all we do on this board is talk about men's bodies and occasionally girls

My gym opens at 4:30 am and closes at 10pm M-F. People ask me how I have time to work out. I ask them what they are doing at 5:15 am...

>make time for pump time

>>42379107
where is the source for this photo op

>>42379107
Naw, the time I spend per week at the gym is negligible. Just watch one less tv show a day and you've more than made up your time

>>42379107
>work on partial differential eqns
>get stuck

College is hard guys.

>>42380880
Do you live in a camper for weeks at a time too and work 12-16 hours a day of manual labor?

Yes
But I always found ways to obstruct my "career"
Fitness sure beats that something being video games

>>42379377

2 hours a day to go to the gym lmao. Do you think this is sustainable when you have a gf/wife, a job, a kid and 10 years of grinding your joints in the gym?

I work out less than 3 hours a week, 2 sessions.

>>42380965
me tbeh fampai.

I lift when I'm stuck on my homework, and since I'm tired when I get back to the library I generally can focus harder and fidget less.

I know well enough that I would just use that time to shitpost nyway

>>42379490
t. sheep follower

if you don't have enough time, wake up earlier

Fitness has the least priority to me. University, friends and fun always comes first. Nobody will care if I am a few pounds lighter or heavier nor do I.

>>42379177
Everyone always fucking tells this and studies shows this. But the real thing is do you actually feel that way after you work out?

>>42379107
Lifting weights is the only thing that kept me sane in med school.
>be at the hospital 80 hours per week for surgery
>come home and study for an hour every day
>still lift weights 3x per week
Even during dedicated study time for Step 1 and Step 2 CK, you still need to exercise. It helps you manage the stress.

>med school

Nice. Any tips for someone trying to get in? I just finished college and I'm prepping for the mcat. I keep doubting my ability, even though I graduated from an ivy league (if that counts for anything anymore)
