Need help scheduling my workouts with a busy work schedule please help?

[Anonymous]

I'm a bodybuilder and I'm nearly exhausted everyday trying to work as a server at a restaurant with quick turnaround and an inconsistent schedule. The earliest I come in each day is 10am and the latest 12-2am leaving. I'm having trouble scheduling my workouts without being completely exhausted to lift and complete them. Any advice? When should I schedule my workouts with working an inconsistent schedule. I feel unmotivated and depressed now that I can't get in my workouts. I tried going in at 4am but I just feel extremely exhausted. Any help would be appreciated. I’m also trying to balance a relationship as well ontop of all this

You need to talk to your boss about setting a consistent schedule. There's only 24 hours in a day. If you're working 14-16 hours of it, you simply don't have the time to get efficient workouts in and the rest required for it to mean anything positive. You'll just make things worse trying to throw a workout in after working that much. Work - Life balance is important.

Well then there's not much you can do other than change jobs. You're working crazy hours. Even in the military we don't work that many hours straight except maybe staff duty where we sit at a desk for 24+ hours taking turns napping occasionally getting stung by scorpions because the desert sucks.
You know as well as I do that proper rest is the most important part of efficient gains. Gotta change something to balance out how you spend your daily 24 hours if you want good gym time.

You schedule it around your work schedule. Do what you can when you can

Anytime during the day when you're sure you won't have to work?
