Every You Desire Comes At a Price
Summary
- When I have important work meetings or duties, I prioritize my job performance over physical activities like deadlifting.
- I currently lift weights only once a week because I notice it affects my work, and that's not worth it to me.
- I always incorporate exercise into my day, like walking, even if lifting isn't feasible.
- Lifting can make me too tired for work, so I choose times that are less likely to impact my energy for the day.
- If exercise doesn't change how I look, I focus instead on how it makes me feel and perform.

How To Take Action
I would suggest implementing a balanced approach to exercise and work. If you notice that heavy workouts like deadlifting interfere with your productivity, try shifting them to a time that doesn't affect your energy levels for important tasks. For example, exercising in the evening or on a less demanding day might be more suitable.
A good way of staying active without the exhaustion is to incorporate simple activities such as walking throughout your day. Walking can help you maintain energy levels and keep you fit without taking away from your work performance.
If your main goal with exercise is to feel good rather than changing how you look, focus on how physical activity improves your mood and productivity. Keep track of times when you feel the most energetic and schedule light exercises like stretches or short walks during those windows.
Remember, it's about finding a routine that fits your lifestyle and goals. Paying attention to how exercise affects your work can help you make small adjustments that lead to big improvements in both areas. Focus on the benefits exercise brings to your mental strength and daily performance, and adjust as needed.
