How do others here get to do their work and good workouts at the same time? I usually train about 4000 yards a day but at the moment I have too much work where I need to concentrate. I often work until early in the morning. I work in animation so my work is always sitting down at my animation desk and computer.
I have to admit that I have a lot of work and if I'd do my swimming now I would get too tired at some point, so I took a break from swimming(and gained 10 lbs during this time:( )
I know I'll lose the weight as soon as I hit the pool again but also I will get less work done because I'll be drained.
How do others do it?

I am a fulltime student and work 40 hrs a week at a grocerie store. I am at school all day twice a week, (my two days off work) and at work the rest of the time. I eventually coerced my boss into letting me come in no earlier than 7am and stay no later than 10pm, allowing me to get 1.5-2 hours in every morning. But since thanksgiving week, i've been working over 45 hours, often not leaving the joint til after midnight....plus its finals week! I havn't been in water in 2 weeks and feel like crap. I plan to be back in the water every day after school ends for the semester in a few days.
I'm not the type of person who can function on less than 6-7 hours of sleep. I hate it, and I don't know why i'm like that, but if i don't get a full 7-8 i'm going to try to find time to sleep during the day.
Basically if i'm not in bed by 10-10:45pm, I probably won't make it to morning practice. If I do, I'll come back at 7:15am and sleep till 11am! :bed:
