[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) people list bedtime when you wake at an early hour, it really frames the response. Most working parents probably can’t get to be by 930 after getting home at 6, making dinner, activities for kids, and cleanup from the day. That’s only 3.5 hours. 2) OP was asking for working parents I think, but didn’t clarify in her post. It’s trivially easy to make work out time when you work full time, and then have 8 hours to do with what you will every day. I lived at the gym before kids. 3) bike/run commutes, I always like the idea, but I found the packing of a change of clothes and gear to shower at work ate almost as much time as a regular workout. I don’t think this adds any efficiency but does help the planet 4) teaches, what are your butt in seat hours, like elem goes 9-3:50, is it 830-420?[/quote] Why so many excuses? You just have to make time for a workout. [/quote] Nobody makes time other than God. Thanks for your helpful suggestion. [/quote] Everyone gives you suggestions and you swat them away. Or worse, you say "you must not have kids." Guess what, plenty of people who are at least as busy as you find time to workout. You could to, but you CHOOSE not to. Make a different choice or stop whining. [/quote] There are a lot of assumptions and silly decisions in this thread. Like the assumption that anybody “full time employed” must have 8 hours of free time a day. Nonsense. People marathon train while being an associate at a big law firm in their first couple of years all the time. [b]The other silly thing is this idea that you have to cede all your free time to your children, particularly when they are in high school and should be figuring their way on their own. They will need to do that eventually. [/b] Like you say. It’s all about choices. Everybody can find at least 45 minutes a day. It’s not magic. You just delete something else or expect somebody else to do something, lose some compensation, etc….[/quote] +1 Really important lesson, couldn’t agree more [/quote] Who the F is talking about high school students? OP has elementary kids. [/quote]
