Mostly just asking this for a college assignment since I'm a student there, and this is the one I picked out of the twenty I came up with.

Feel free to also answer why you do such exercises, describe the last time you have engaged in physical exercise, and provide any additional thoughts.

I don't mean to make excuses, but I leave at 730 am due to commuting via transit, get home at 5, walk my dogs and eat, and work 6-9 pm every night as well. It's a lot and getting up earlier than 6 am would really start to take a toll on my mood due to a psychiatric disorder. It isn't that I haven't thought of it but there's really no space in the day. I do try to walk the dog long distances on the weekends when I just work my one job but the free time during the week just honestly isn't there.

I suggested waking up earlier because I don’t know anything about your life/schedule. You’re the one who knows it best, and the one who knows where to find 15-30 minutes to do some exercises. Working two jobs is tough, but people do it all the time while still managing to fit exercise into their life.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to tell you what to do or shame you into working out. It’s your life and if you don’t want to work out, then that’s fine.

I just want to point out that when someone thinks they “dont have time” for working out, they’re wrong. It’s never about time. It’s like if someone told you they don’t have time to brush their teeth and shower every day because they work two jobs, need to walk their dog, and have a bad elbow. Would you take that justification seriously? Exercise is just another routine.
