    Best shape of my life at 41, but daily life/work balance is slowly killing me

    @trvlgurl I may start cutting back to M/W/Th and either try Friday or Saturday. So at least Tuesday is a 'rest' day. I have been getting routine bloodwork done with an endocrinologist, tied to my GP's office, who monitors me. Test is leveled out and other numbers are good. PSA # has slightly...

    Best shape of my life at 41, but daily life/work balance is slowly killing me

    @shirl Yeah, we do let the kids buy lunch one day a week, but they still have to have separate snack/lunches so that's always going to be part of the routine. Yes, I could try to go Saturday or Sunday. She goes Saturday morning as well, but most times I don't join her, instead sleeping in to...

    @dawn16 They are both under 10. They don't nap anymore but occasionally will do a 20-30min snooze in the car when doing errands or driving home from some activity on the weekend. Wife never naps, but she is younger than me so maybe age gives her a boost. I would be ok removing say tuesday...

    Best shape of my life at 41, but daily life/work balance is slowly killing me

    @meganjo Wife is adamant about not wanting a home gym. (besides some dumbells/pullup bar/riser step we have) I could try to cut back on the gym or take a day off and do Saturday. (but I hate the idea of early AM class on saturday because that's the most opportunity to sleep in a catch up...even...

    Best shape of my life at 41, but daily life/work balance is slowly killing me

    @andrewm12 I agree that would be nice to have a home gym. Thing is gym is 10min from my house, so if I wanted to do the class that precedes the kettle bell class, and head home to do that from home, it's almost moot at that point by the time I get setup and such. I'm hoping in a few months...

    Best shape of my life at 41, but daily life/work balance is slowly killing me

    @teekaydee She actually does the majority of tasks. I cannot fault her at that as she is way more chore proactive than I am. (and also gets annoyed at clutter/dirty things way earlier than I do) She works part time, but also does chores, does most of driving errands, and shuttles the kids to...

    Best shape of my life at 41, but daily life/work balance is slowly killing me

    @dawn16 Thanks for the reponse! To clarify my schedule more: I don't usually leave at 4pm on the dot to head home because random work support/calls. I usually get home about 5-5:30, change into gym clothes/drink preworkout energy drink. Gym classes from 6pm-7:30/8:00pm. Get home around...

    Best shape of my life at 41, but daily life/work balance is slowly killing me

    TL;DR - I'm in best physical shape of my life, but lack of sleep and other social/work/physical factors (like low T) make it difficult to balance my current lifestyle, and being fit. The point of this thread is for advice/critique and maybe some criticism (be gentle w me please, i'm tired ok?)...
