Re: Quickly getting tired
I work several jobs and feel your pain! I know exactly what you are describing!
Two things...how early do you go to bed? I am in bed by 8:30 every night because I am up at 4 am....what time do you work out? I work out at 5 am, because if I wait until 6 pm when I am finished working, I dont make it to the gym. I spend about 90 minutes in the gym 4 days a week (Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday) because believe it or not, when I do NOT work out, I am more tired! Working out, does give your body energy...
It will take some time to get used to the new schedule. Be patient with yourself, but think about going to bed earlier and working out at a different time of day if you can. Maybe you can get a fast walk in at lunch time or ride a bike to one of your jobs? This can add exercise into your day without interrupting the limited time you have to actually exercise at the gym.
I also teach online...when I teach, I am standing up in my home office. I wear ankle weights and do some marching in place while teaching...every little thing you can do to work your muscles counts as working out! Think about how you can incorporate more exercise into your day.
Eventually you will get used to the schedule, but remember the more you work out, the more energy you will have in the long run. Dont fall into a rut of not working out because you are tired...find a different way to exercise.
Good luck!
