How do you switch bedtime between weekdays and weekends?

Take a nap before you go out, easy.

For me it was having a kid, makes you realize that sleep is only a luxury that you can get whenever you can

That schedule doesn't work and it's not so good for you but I think one could argue that as long as you're not drinking that entire time and you're able to get some quality sleep from 5am-noon there are definitely worse things you could be doing. Sunday night could help you recover too. When you add alcohol into the mix it changes everything, especially if you're drinking in larger quantities and that's when you really need to consider your actions and sleep schedule. You tell your body, 5 consecutive nights of the week, that we're going to bed at this time and then you throw it out of whack 2 days in a row, it's not happy.

It can work because Sunday you can catch up on sleep.

Plus...none of these things are absolutes. So, don't stay out till 4am. Get home at 1am or 2am on friday and saturday. You could probably also shift your gym schedule to another time of the day to get that extra sleep before work. You can also switch some of your nightgame to daygame. So, get home earlier Saturday eve but so some daygame sunday. Or switch some of the weekend evening game to weeknight happy hour game.

Just sit down with a piece of paper and figure out what works for you.

Oh, you have a hard time changing your sleep patterns...try doing it gradually. Try changing how much light can get into your room if its the dawn that triggers waking up.

I had one really bad graduate schools semester maybe 9 years ago (we were all up all night working on papers and statistics) ...that changed me from being a day person to not having a sleep schedule. I have one now though, but controlling the amount of light in my room helps me sleep longer if I have to.

I woke up at 5am 5 days a week for almost 2 years and that was going out A LOT during the week as well until very late. It is not that sustainable but you can work it for about a year or so before your body just says no. You need naps and serious catch up sleep on weekends.

I am lucky enough to freelance and work for myself, so for this exact reason I break my sleep pattern into 03h00 -> 09h00 and then a nap every day from 14h00 -> 16h00.

That way going out on the weekends doesn't fuck with me, as I too find it incredibly hard to change a sleep pattern.

Not much you can do. All it means is that monday I get like 3 hours sleep but then sleep like a baby monday night and get regular sleep till the weekend again.

Heard melatonin is good, just too much of a pain to get in Australia

Do you go out to the bars/clubs on Sunday night?
