Cevaplar
Personally I dedicate one of my days off two doing errands which normally includes paying any bills that are due that week I'm going over my finances and getting groceries and anything I need for my cat and maybe a little bit of shopping. And then on my second day off I spend roughly half a day cleaning and meal prepping so for me I will wake up at 9 a.m. cook myself breakfast and then clean until about 1 or so and then maybe go see friends or family and spend the rest of my day doing things that I want to do. It also helps that I work from home so I don't have to worry about travel time. And a lot of my hobbies are things that I can do inside of my apartment. And as far as meal prepping I just make simple meals and store them in the fridge or freezer and then read them whenever I am ready to eat. Edit: grammar
REKLAM
By not doing anything recreational ever.
Cook one night, exercise the next night and keep alternating :)
The simple answer is we work too much. At the least we should start to have 4 day work weeks.
It's all about discipline. And being well adjusted. Two things I wouldn't know about
"Exactly! Years ago, my dad was getting on me about losing some weight. So I looked at him and said, "You're right. I do need to do that. I need to go to the gym like you do. But I have a question. How do you manage your time? How do you work 50+ hours a week, commute, go to the gym AND do all the grocery shopping, laundry, house cleaning, take care of the kids too?" He looked at me like I was an absolute idiot and, with a big old DUHHHH! in his voice, said, "Your MOTHER did all that!" Then it hit him. He backed off after that. "
Get off of social media/the internet. It's such a time suck.
I do all that and still manage at least 4 hours of gaming a day. Because no kids.
Timewise: easily Energywise: not as easily but doable Edit: Thought I'd add a bit more on the energy part. It's getting started on working out that's the hard part, but once you do you will find you have more energy throughout the day, partly due to better sleep and partly due to other biological reasons. This will also increase your appetite and perhaps motivate you to cook better meals. As for cooking in general, as a lot of commentators have said meal prep is very helpful to save time, and just generally cooking big meals so that you can have leftovers.
Have an easy to make quick breakfast and meal prep lunch and/or dinner 1 to 2 days out of the week. It takes a couple to a few hours but it's worth it. Prioritize sleep. That might mean hanging out with friends slightly less. Adopt a program that you know you can stick to with a full time job, and one that will be beneficial but also not 3 hours a day. For example, I do two full body workouts a week, and jump rope for cardio 3 times a week. Full body workouts take 2 hours, and jump rope workouts are usually between 15 to 30 minutes. So I'm really only working out like 5 to 6 hours a week. That's doable (in my opinion) for the average person.
