My lifting split sucks because of the way my job is. One week I lift
On Wednesday and Thursday and off the other days and the next week I lift on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. Then it starts over with the Wed and Thu. OH well thats the price you pay to have a real job.

The job is definitely a factor. There are lots of factors, actually. Emotional stress has been one of them lately. Admittedly, going out has been a factor as well, in the past and I'm sure in the future.

It all depends how my week goes, basically. It's so hard to have a set routine and stick w/ it due to my job and the other factors mentioned. But, it's still about discipline. For instance, w/ NYE coming on a Tues Nite this year, not getting into the gym at least Saturday, if not also Sunday, is not an option this week. Though, I usually take weekends off.... due to going out.

I'm not a huge drinker.. maybe 2-3 vodkas tops during the whole course of a nite. But, I dance a lot and make up for it in an incredible cardio session (maintaining optimal heartrate, btw.. lol).

I tend to sleep in weekends a lot to make up for that. But, again.. not this weekend.. not an option.
