This. ^ People get creative when it comes to trying to blame others or find excuses to get out of work. |
I think getting some weights and doing at home workouts could be the solution. I'm a teacher, and I can't imagine working out after a day with kids. When I don't have access to a gym I do love being able to step outside and do a sunrise run. |
You work 7 hours a day. I don’t understand why those hours won’t work for you? What do you think most people with jobs do for gym time? I assume you have kids, work out on your own at the end hours (530 or 10pm) or workout 530pm and get home at 630, when most working parents who work 8+ hours get home. |
DP. I’m a teacher, too. I work 10-11 hours most days. My time *with students* may equal about 7 hours. There’s a huge misconception on DCUM regarding teacher work. It isn’t the easy, breezy job people like to pretend it is. But to answer the question: I work out at 5am before I get ready. I’m way too tired after the work day. |
Most teachers work hours beyond their reporting hours. Arrive an hour earlier in the mornings. Stay 30-60 minutes after (more on mandatory staff meeting days biweekly), plus an hour or two in the evenings. When pp/OP says "my work hours are 8:30-3:25" she means those are the bell hours. Not her actual work hours. |
Do you NEED group classes?
Could you just run or use an exercise bike for workouts during the week, then take classes on the weekend? |
