Unpopular opinion: most of us don't have a time problem.
I'll say the quiet part out loud: most of us don't have a time problem; we have a prioritization problem that we've reframed as a time problem because it's easier to defend.
I know this because I made this argument for years. I work a 9-5, and then a 6-9, leaving only Friday evenings and weekend free. My days are genuinely packed. The meetings are real. The deadlines are real. The clients are real. The exhaustion at 5pm, let alone 9pm(!), is real.
What was not real was my belief that there was no available time.
The 9-5 is remote, which means I have some flexibility mid-day. What actually happened to that flexibility: the couch. Reddit. Slack scrolling. YouTube rabbit holes. And then WoW in the evenings before I crashed into bed. Sometimes all of those at once.
I'm not saying that to shame anyone. I'm saying it because I was doing the exact same thing and telling myself I didn't have time to work out.
The actual reframe that worked for me: I stopped asking "when do I have time" and started asking "what am I currently doing with the time I have."
The audit was uncomfortable. The result was useful.
Three 30-minute sessions per week. That's 90 just minutes. In a 168-hour week. That's 0.54% of available time.
If 0.54% of your week is genuinely not available, your problem is not fitness ... it's something else worth examining.
What's the honest answer when you audit your own time? I'm curious where the hours actually go.
