Work and swimming

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 can say this....even when i have to put in the 12+ hour days, like I do during the entire month of december, I still get to the pool a couple times a week and warm up, stretch, and do a couple of sprints-about 1000 yds, this usually takes about 20-30m. I find that this helps my endurance at my job and n keeps my mental health in check. It amazing what just a little "maintainance" work will do for ya. The better shape you keep yourself in the better you'll manage those long days on the job.
