Author Topic: Should I just stop working out? (Read 6663 times)

Wife just had twins! So life is crazy... No eating, up 90% of the night, stressed out, still working.

Is it pointless to try to work out if there is never a recovery period? Would it just put too much stress on the body and make things worse? Maybe just take 3-6 months off and get back with it then?

Thoughts?

There's always time for 45-60 minutes 3 days a week.

Good luck

Lol!

No, I'm a father who takes care of his kids. I get up just as my wife, it's called being a man! Not many can do it. You must be a black fella.

Either you or your wife should take extended time off work. No sense in being stressed and sacrificing gains.

Keep at least 3 days a week in there to go to the gym. You will have a lot more energy. You need the stores relief. You might not make gains but you need to blow off steam and keep your feel goodd hormones flowing.

Also need pics of the wife before final determination can be made.

Forget bodybuilding for a year. Then try to start again.

Buy some home gym equipment. A few dumbbells, rubber bands, maybe a bench. This may not be enough to grow, but at least you will maintain what you have.

This is a great suggestion. One minor tweak I would do is tell the wife you are going out for milk and cigarettes; buy a one way plane ticket to Italy. Once there bang 20 years olds with names like Sofia and Francesca and spend the rest of your life there.

In a word, yes.

Quit fooling yourself. You'll always be a prize twink.

On another note, you now have kids (and a wife).

Game over.

You will wish you had continued hitting the gym...If you want something enough you'll get it and fit it in....You can build a very good physique going to the gym 3 days a week...In fact if you're staying natural that is almost ideal....Give yourself as much recovery time as possible and hit it hard when you're in there...Eat clean while you're out of the gym, work hard when you're in the gym...Find sleep where you can, even if it's broken up...

Jog 2 miles instead of 1, Eat the whole cake instead of a slice, burn your ex's house down. I believe in you theworm

HIT then volume. 3 or 4 work outs by 30-40 mins. plus cardio.

twins gets two out of the way in one go.
