On days I work I get up at 5:50 am and I am out the door by 6:25 am. I do not get home on most days until 8:15-8:30 (if it was a bad day sometimes not until 9). Doing exercise on my lunch break is not an option because I am lucky is I have a whole 30 minute break.
When I get home I pretty much make and eat dinner, then watch one TV show.
Yes, I do, and it's very doable if you prioritize. It will make you feel less tired.
I work 7a to 7p with over an hour commute. I get up at 5a and am usually home sometime between 8:30 and 9p. I work out at night after I get home. I work out at night anyway, even on my off days, so I'm used to that. I used to skip my work days and then I decided I wanted to give it a try...
It refreshes me, relaxes me, and I wake up the next morning less tired. The only time I don't exercise is when I work a sixteen hour shift-- then I can't figure out where to fit it in.
Go for it!
