    Get home gym equipment like resistance bands since it's very lightweight and easy to pack away and I'm guessing space will be your priority since the ones young guys doing this often live in shoebox apartments. Also get a "door anchor" if you're using bands so you can perform more exercises maybe a kettlebell if you're up for that as well.
    Make sleep your #1 priority since your performance in basically everything stems from that and if you can save an hour of total commuting on days you'd otherwise be going to and from the gym that's a major time saver. Plus if you're sleeping like shit, your job performance will suffer and possibly job prospects.
    Can answer a few more questions before I go, anyway good luck and don't do evil Blackrock ESG bullshit if you make it up there.

    First off congratulations and frick you.

    Second: Don't overthink it, but do plan.
    a) Don't eat too much goyslop. You're making money, you can spend it on paying homosexuals to cook for you.

    b) Get enough rest. We get 168 hrs a week. Your biggest concern unlike 90% of homosexuals is no longer MONEY but TIME. This means spending money for convenience is now worth it. Get an apartment near your office so you don't have to commute long, etc.

    88 hours isn't that long. 7 hours a day + 1 for various pooping/pissing/cleaning = 56 hours a week. This leaves you 32 for the rest of the week not including homosexual social activities like dating, etc.

    c) Plan your workouts accordingly. You probably won't have time to hit it more than 4 times a week maximum.

    If you want a Black person off IST life coaching you, then frick you pay me. If not, then just take this advice and run.

    Internship shouldn't be too bad. Unless you're in a real hardo group, interns aren't given unbearable hours. Should easily be able to get an hour in (especially if your company/building has a gym) before starting your day. First 2/3 years will be rough if you are in a good group/firm that actually gets business. Be prepared for your body and mind to go to shit during your time as an analyst - anyone telling you this can be prevented is lying or a loser who isn't put on any deals.

      GRIND because that's what they're doing, and you'll be proving you can be one of them. They'll respect that, wouldn't you?

      Yea these people are generally losers because of this, same in other professions (big law, management consulting, etc.). Have absolutely no lives outside of work, compare themselves HARD over superficial brands and bullshit (designer clothes, purses, watches, private school, aka just marketing companies identifying you as a rich idiot). Think NYC is the center of the universe because of having gimmicky wienertial bars & clubs, nice restaurants, and nothing else (anyone in these professions interested in 'the arts' is a dilettante). Have no real hobbies , passions, interests, etc so double and triple down on work.

      I only know this because I used to be this, and have a lot of peers that are like this. Course corrected me entire life in mid 20s. Yea, Im stereotyping hard - finance is full of great, smart, hardworking people. But the insecure 'I was never the cool one in high school so this is my attempt look at these sleds I just bought' peawienering gets so pathetic so fast

      Hi IST, This summer I will be doing an internship as an investment banking analyst in NYC. The average hours are around 80 a week. How can I stay IST during this period? Thanks in advance

      I doubt an internship is going to run you this ragged. Your focus needs to be on getting them to like you. Anyone can do the work, what they want is someone who's not a gay. And ~70 hour work weeks seem doable when you start them, but I did that grind for 3 years in law and it was fricking miserable. I do solo work now and my hours are way less, still making a comfy upper $100k working about 30 hours a week.

    As far as staying fit, you're going to have to significantly lower your expectations of what you can accomplish this summer. Really you're just going to have to shoot for maintenance. Upper/lower split on Sat/Sun. Try to do something to get the blood flowing at least one day on Tue/Wed/Thu. Don't be a moron and skip the social events for muh gainz, you'll come off as an antisocial loser that the boys won't want to work with, hurting your chances of the return offer.

    Do any of your colleagues look fit?
    I have never met a fit investment banker. They all have that chubby east coast look, many prematurely wrinkled and balding. A lot of these guys rely on pharmaceutical stimulants to keep up with the lifestyle, they eat out for every meal. The lifestyle is not conducive to fitness. It's not even conducive to the bare minimum of health, things like >6 hours of sleep per night, non-competitive bonds with peers, eating home cooked food. The priority is money.
    That's fine, but if physical health is a priority for you, you should work on a five to ten year exit plan.
    In the meantime get some incredibly low barrier cardio equipment for your apartment so you can at least postpone or stave off a heart attack. Your twenties fly by if you spend it working on a career like this, and your social milieu provides no healthy frame of reference. If you're not careful you're going to wake up to life in your mid-thirties with an unrecoverable body, some serious impending health issues, and a personality which does not lend itself to living happily amongst others.
    Still, it's rewarding and fun, and obviously you will make a lot of money. I think you need to be real about possibilities here though. And, don't tell anyone if you end up planning to get out in five to ten years, you'll get sidelined and have your earning potential kneecapped.

      Yea good stuff here. OP is in college, smart/hardworking. But really doesnt know what he likes or doesnt like until he actually does it. What you think you want in a career and life at 21 will be vastly different than at 30. Just be ok with knowing that, and take time to reflect.

      You can easily get sucked into the comparison game with these paths and end up laboring your entire youth (20s and 30s) away for what amounts to a very unrewarding lifestyle. This isnt cope, some people ENJOY the grind of an MBB, IB, PE, etc. life. A lot of others just convince themselves they do because frankly they never spent time on anything else, so the cost is too sunk otherwise. Good news is this early work will set you up for flexibility down road, either with career, money, etc.

      But you only get one life, and you only get one spin through your 20s. Just be aware of the trade offs going in.

    If you’re actually going to work those hours the honest answer is that you really can’t. The opportunity cost of that type of career, or any such career with extreme demands on your time, is that every other aspect of your life - health and fitness, romantic relationships, family bonds, etc - will necessarily have to take a serious back seat to your career. Or more likely they will disintegrate entirely and you will be left unhealthy and alone. That may not be the pragmatic answer about time management you were hoping for, but it’s the truth.

    Truly, if you value career success so much more than those things that that is a sacrifice you are willing to make, then go forward as you see fit. It’s your life and your decision alone. But you would be well served to be honest with yourself about the extreme cost of that choice.

    There are some people for whom that is a good path in life. They aren’t meant for a normal life like the rest of us and they could never be happy doing it. If that’s you, do what’s right for you. But there’s a high probability that isn’t you even if you really think otherwise.

    Be wary of the lie that you can work in such a field, be fit, and have an active social life let alone a romantic relationship and a family. It is the male equivalent of the delusional, feminist boss-lady trope.

    Even if you do 80 hour weeks, you are either gonna have some downtime early morning, or around dinner (depending on what kind of shop), so you shouldn't have much problems. But of course some days you might get swamped and will have to skip the gym, thats just the nature of the beast.

    Biglaw guy here, and here's what I found helpful
    1: get some resistance bands and dumbells, even better if you can bring them to the office. I crank out a few sets of curls/hammer curls and lateral raises with the dumbells every morning while I work, and neck curls with the resistance bands, so I don't have to do them at the gym later.
    2: Antagonistic supersets are your friend
    3: Get a gym membership and don't be afraid to use machines. It's way faster to do 4 sets of leg extensions and hamstring curls than to squat and deadlift
    4: Consistency is king. Try to hit each muscle group at least once on really busy weeks.

    You can’t. Try to get as many steps as possible and don’t go nuts with food or drinking.

    Do things efficiently to make more time. Meal prep. Minimize travel/commute time. Be efficient with work. Make sure to get enough sleep or nothing else will matter. It's really about efficiency. Don't neglect quality of diet either. It'll be easy to order delivery (waaay too easy, trust me), but you have to make sure you still eat enough vegetables and take care of yourself.

            see

            I’m not a poorgay you moron. If you ever manage to get any money you’ll realize just how few things of value you can actually buy with money. That’s the point I was making.

              literally everyone on fit is a rich 6 figure earning millionaire. whenever anyone here posts their blog about their life, the very first thing they say is their career and salary. everyone on fit is also extremely happy, motivated, determined, and driven which is why everyone on this board is successful in every aspect of their life, socially, career, fitness, life accomplishments when most other people in society are talking about how hard it is to live a decent life in todays climate

              the guy talking about "a bloo bloo u cant buy anthing of value with money" is a coping poorgay.

                People who are good at one thing e.g. studying, working in their career, are usually good at most other things to a reasonable degree, e.g. athletics, working out, playing music. This is because the discipline and skills required to excel at one thing can be transferred to other things. Successful people are just that annoyingly good at being good at things. That's something you need to accept in life. The just world fallacy is exactly that. For example, the CEO of Goldman Sachs is a literal fricking EDM artist who DJs for fricks sake.

                Money is only really good for providing a safety net. Focusing on material possessions beyond the basics is just tacky

    Why bother making money if you don't have time to enjoy it?
