Congrats on the job!

Maybe try to walk more as part of your commute. Also, jogging for just 15 mins per day is enough maintain good cardiovascular health.

For muscle mass, you can try to do push ups and pull ups at home. Same with squats and lunges. Check out Youtube. There are many exercises you can quickly do at home without gym equipment.

When you wake up, do a quick 15 minute body weight workout every day. Even on gym days. It sounds stupid, but when you keep active...even for a small amount daily...you'll lose less strength and endurance.

30 sec jumping Jack's 30 sec push ups 30 sec jumping Jack's 30 sec situps 30 sec run in place 30 sec of dips 30 sec run in place 30 sec of lunges 30 sec heel taps 30 sec squats 30 sec jumping Jack's 30 sec push ups 30 sec jumping Jack's 30 sec situps

Brush your teeth, take a shower...and off you go with a almost complete body workout. If you have some dumbbells at home throw those into 30 second reps of curls, hammer curls, shoulder raises, Arnold press

sounds like one of the only options would be to get one of those cycle things you can peddle under your desk. I hear ya about taking 7 days off then feeling not as good. I hope you can sort something out!

One week breaks suck ass. Even taking one day off messes me up.

I don't think you are actually losing as much progress as you think, but you will definitely feel like shit, and it will screw up your mindset.

I don't know if I'd be able to do it after such a miserably long day, but push-ups and planks in the mornings and nights is pretty much the most I'd reach for.

I work out or doing something everyday. For the days I’m in a rush or don’t have time, I do a short pull up or chin up workout & the 6 minute abs. Can knock it all out in 15 minutes.

I used to go to the gym once a week on one my free days, then i focused on eating better by preparing meals for the rest of the week.

I won't lie to you, some days i would have loved to eat junk food and knowing you planned to have salad is not the best thing in the world. So i eat something i like after the gym the day i go.

It's a way to trick my mind, i know that if i go to the gym i can eat something i like (a pizza, an hamburger).

You will say "but if you eat more than you had burbed in the gym it's useless". Wrong! Because insuline after working out is on the muscles, meaning that what you wil eat will make you stronger and allows a faster recover. Carbs are necessary to keep the metabolism high and make the supercompensation take effect.

A common mistake is thinking that training + starving is good but it's not. Just think of tigers and lions, they eat a lot and are full of muscles, never fat. The only fat tiger is in the zoo because it doesn't exercise. It's all a matter of where your insuline is at the moment.

Just training once per week will wake up your body and on the long run bring good results.

You can’t squeeze more time in or be less exhausted so focus on what you can control - what is it they say, bodies are made in the kitchen? Maybe try carb cycling and definitely meal prep.
