FIT Night Shift Workers?

[The Saggin' Nutz]

Been hitting the gym for awhile now to lose some extra weight i put on. I work 11pm-7am and would get off and be alseep by 8am, wake up between 2 and 4 pm go the gym then start my day. lately I have been finding it hard to get motivated when I wak up and I feel going to bed later in the day and walking up later will help me be less tired throughout the night My question is if I go to the gym when i get off work, eat something then go right to sleep will I havwe the same results as if I go when i first wake up?

Yep I work a 12 hour shift with an hour drive each way. I sleep extra good.

should i eat something before i leave work then go straight to the gym or go work out, eat eggs/toast or something then sleep?

 

[Rojo Johnson]

I bring a shit load of food to work because I'm here so long. I usually eat something right before I leave, oatmeal with pb or something with carbs. It's about an hour before I'm in the gym. Then when I get home I'll have a shake or eggs and veggies and go to sleep.

I couldnt imagine lifting after work. I have a hard time staying awake for the last few hours of my shift as it is. No way could I do anything physically intense when I left. I fall asleep driving home.

I work nights by choice, always have. And I actually like going to the gym after work because there arent as many people there at 8am as there are in the afternoon when "normal people" get off of work.

But this shit isn't for everybody, thats for sure. I fucking HATE being around people and being in crowded places, etc, so being forever alone works for me just swimmingly.
