Any good tips on keeping up an exercise/workout routine during busy season? I find it really helps me stay balanced

I started getting up early before busy season which has a made for a really smooth transition. If I’m working from home, I will go to the gym on my lunch break. If I’m going into the office I’ll go before work (I can’t bring myself to after a full day of working lol). That has really helped me. I’ve kept a goal of working out 4-5 times a week, with flexibility to move some workouts to the weekend if needed. So far it has worked really well! I’ve been consistently working out for about 3 months, including a month of busy season.

Busy season isn’t applicable to me, but I found group classes at the gym keep me accountable. They’re an hour long, I don’t have to overthink what exercise routine to do, I just show up and leave after an hour

Very true. Thanks for the tip

If you have an at home bike you could get an attached desktop and have your laptop up while you cycle. Can also carve out 30 minutes in your day to do something fitness related that you may like

Thank you!

Once I get on a regular routine, I'm good for a few months. Currently trying to find the new routine. Quick exercise breaks multiple times a day are helping (a jog around the block in the morning, a bunch of two minute push up or pull up breaks, stretching breaks, bike trainer with the laptop for webinar calls, whatever else I can think of)

First, understand why you don’t keep up with the routine.

Hi fishes,
I'm 22 and planning to take a life insurance. I'm comparing all policies and max life seems attractive as it has good claim settlement ratio and less premiums. But there is no office near our area. My worry is that if there is a need to claim in future, it can be done all online by my nominee? Is it recommended to take policy online in any platform(like policybazaar)?
Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
Please guide

How do you manage your own expectations while staying motivated to hit the gym? As a smaller guy, I’m struggling to reconcile the things I can and can’t change about my body and not get discouraged.

I’ve been on Wellbutrin for about a year and it was working…but I feel the depression coming back. I don’t want to just keep upping the dosage (went from 150 -> 200). I’m not too sure what to do and therapy is something I can’t afford right now with my recent rent increase. Any thoughts or advice?
