We are all nerds


I work in IT and Web I run my own business so i can do whatever the fook i want

My job has taken 2nd place to training for the past 5 weeks though!, Sounds bad don't it.

Gym Instructor so never out of the place, breaks aren't to bad either.

London Cab Driver, work nights, train in the afternoon when gym is less busier

Self employed work is in my dreams if i get sleep

Project manager, mon to fri 8.30 to 4.30. Eat what I want, when I want ( but stick to 10.30 / 1.00 & 3.50 ). I train late in the day as have small children and evenings are very busy. Train any nights I like 8pm to 9pm, 7 days a week. The hours of work are ideal for my training and family life shame about the pay...

i work as a shop manager...
sounds a piece of p1ss but its 10 hours straight ( minimum, usually 11 or 12 ) 5 days a week, plus the 2hour round trip...
then i train with wifey and she does an 8 - 4.30 shift while i do 10 - 8 so were in the gym at 6am for an hour or so
christ, when i just re read that im not surprised im fooked

Im self employed and work in construction. Can eat anytime and gym after work, or if im working away from home i usually find a gym in the area.

at the moment im on the dole. yeah it does affect my training as i dont have enough cash for food or steroids, i do have more time for training and cardio though

Project manager by day 8.30 - 5 typically but can be more. can eat when i want unless meetings. Stress levels can be high though. Have my own shisha lounge on a night, work 3 nights 7.30-11ish. Fit gym in straight after work and beforr shisha. Not the best for bb with all the smoking and long days,but still a damn sight easier than most have it.

Car Hire Broker, moneys ideal

Shifts are ridiculous, no set pattern, can start early as 7, late as 11pm. between 8-10 hour shifts.

Hence why i have 2 gym memberships, my local and also a pure gym 24/7 gym membership which is next to work.

I do security at a posh town hall, it's brilliant for eating and rest - shifts are weird but I either get up early and train at 8 or 9am (on lates) or I train at 3pm on earlies. Perfect ****ed up martial arts training though as its hard to make it to normal class times.

I'm a engine builder for a research and development company, the hours mean I have to train at the busiest time of the day.. But the regular breaks help be get the food in,
