Starting graveyard shift

Would you rather hit the gym at 7pm before work? Or 7am after? I feel like 7pm would be way more crowded, but getting it done before work sounds best.

    Don't do graveyard, I did it for years. It fucks up your sleep schedule and just isn't worth it.

      Go after.
      The one time I went to the gym in the evening was fucking painful.
      Thots and pajeets as far as the eye can see.

      You lack discipline.

        Not him but get fucked. Using "discipline" to do something basically fucking stupid is, well, fucking stupid.

        Yes... good goy.. we need your services during the night. We can't maximize our profit with only daytime operations.. we need moarrr.

        Sacrifice your circadian clock to the cabal.. here are your measly rations for food and rent.. it will keep you alive for your service. Gym? You don't need your sleep for recovery.. sleep during the day.. or better still.. never sleep again.

          This. It fucks with your circadian rhythm immensely. The cycle of the sun is important to you. No "discipline" can replace sunlight. Let alone the way a bad sleep schedule can fuck with your insulin levels/metabolism.

        Thanks, Satan. I'm leaning towards after as well. Most people seem to go last minute during their day. I might have to give both a try though.

        I've done graveyard for a couple years before. Didn't bother me in the slightest. Been a night owl my whole life. I take 5000iu D3 daily. Never had any health issues, metabolic or otherwise. Boss and I already talked about working into a different shift eventually anyway. I'm the only clean cut guy I've seen and one of the morning shifters I saw going into the interview was sitting there with a friend rolling a blunt. Not a very strong competition.

          you're the exception, not the rule. Most people should not do that garbage.

          Don't get fucking stuck on a night shift job. That shit will turn your life upside down faster than anything if you feel like you can't leave. Don't ever get complacent in one of those jobs. It's not worth sacrificing your health

            Most people are weak, unhealthy, fat shits. How frail can a human be that they fear the darkness? I was fuckin born in it.

              There are various systems in play that are directly correlated with how much sun you get, how intense it is, when you see it, etc. It could completely disrupt your endocrine system and lead to depression, low t, inability to sleep, sleeping too much, etc. Just because it doesn't affect you like that doesn't mean that it doesn't affect most people like that. I'd venture to say that it's damned near impossible for someone to be healthy without proper sunlight exposure (not mutants like you)

          I work 10pm-6am and go at around 6:30am with my friend and we leave around 8am. I would never go in the evenings as my gym usually has around 80-85 people in it then, compared to the mornings which is around 50 (with around 20-25 of those being in a class of some sort so not using any of the equipment anyway)

          [...]
          [...]
          Absolute pussies, being a night-owl and working the graveyard shift is 10x better if you prefer it. I used to feel more tired during the day and more awake at night so graveyard is perfect for me personally.
          If you have multiple things that need doing during the day however then yes it will fuck you around, or if you are constantly swapping between day/night shifts (which is the most retarded thing you could do), it will fuck you up. Being permanently on night-shift is fine.

          Always has to be someone disagreeing because they have an anecdote. Look, I've worked graveyards and I know from sleep studies and personal experience that most people that work them aren't going to be getting 7-8 hours of sleep a day which most every adult needs. I said most so don't come back telling me you or the guy at your local 7/11 does it fine.

          Sacrificing your body and health doing that is just a bad idea.

            I do 22:00 - 06:00, gym 6:30am-8am, free time until 12:00'ish, then I get in bed and read until 13:00 at the latest and sleep until 21:00 for usually 7 and a half hours sleep.
            It really isn't hard to get the same amount of sleep provided you can fit everything you need to do in the morning hours. If you have stuff you need to do in the evening on an odd day, go to bed a few hours earlier.

    Would have to try both to see how it works at the specific gym. However, if I was doing graveyard shift I'd probably just focus on staying alive.

    I tried going in the morning and I was just exhausted. Even with 8hrs of sleep and everything being "the same" I was dragging ass and felt weaker. Evening lifts and runs have been working for me. Lets me see the sun too.

    For anyone thinking about it: it sucks ass and is only worth it short term.

      I meant disagree with an anecdote being their counterargument.

      Yeah maybe that's fine for you. But the human body relies a lot on the sun for its sleep schedule. This isn't really a debate. As advice to a stranger, just avoiding doing that is best. It's just science.

        >Sleep schedule
        8-9 hours is fine for me. I've never gotten less while working a job minus the occasional off day where I stay out late or something.
        >Sun
        There's at least 5 hours of good, low UV sun after the shift before bed.
        >Science
        Stopped listening to that horse shit years ago.

        It's not really that big of a deal.

    I was thinking about working as a bouncer for a month in summer. Would it kill my gains?
