Folks, I need some advice. I just started a second job and it's already cutting into my workout time. I move around alot, but I gotta workout to reach my goal. Any ideas?

    Time manage. Wake up earlier if you have to - do a bunch of quick 15 minute work outs through out the day.

    ^^^ This. No way around it, working out takes time. I get up at 4:15 just to get in a quick workout before a long commute. Yeah, it sucks, thought I'd never survive the first week, but early grows on ya after a while. "I don't have time" = "It's not important." Best to you!

    i get up an hr before my partner gets up and I go for a run... gives me time to get back and stretch out before gettin him ready for work... means someone is home if my son wakes up while im gone... you do what you have to do to get what you want... if you have time to watch tv you have time to do some exercise! plus you will feel a million times better after a workout than after couch time anyway :D

    Depends on what you want to do...

    I've read that if you want to 'cut' (lose fat, while keeping as much muscle as possible), you can get away with 2 solid full body strength training sessions a week, & use a modest calorie deficit. In that case you could work out on the weekend, and again somewhere in the middle of the week. You could plan walking, for general fitness, somewhere in your commute.

    You have to make the time, no matter what. I workout at home, because its too hard to get the gym with work and being a mom.
