Joey, thanks for the reply. I am actually a physician and am the Director of a Family Medicine residency training program. My schedule varies every week. I take 1 week of call that usually goes 7-5, but then I am on call 24/7 x 1 week that week. Completely unpredictable, sometimes having to go back to the hospital and taking calls all night long.

The other 3-4 weeks are better in that I have a couple of hours either in the morning or laste afternoon at least 3 days a week and weekends off (but never really off as I have my 2 90+ yr old parents living with me). I can get 4-5 workouts in on those weeks. The call week is the toughest.

I saw you on the internet and looked at your stuff. I recognized that despite being a lifelong athlete and previously being in shape/working out, the post-COVID years have been much harder. Every time I start something it is hard to stick to it either because it is not enjoyable, being too hard or I get minor, nagging injuries that shut me down. Thank you!

Joey, I am newly signed up for your Total Access package. I signed up for the non-gym membership, but I have a TONAL home gym which I am hoping to incorporate into some of the gym based weight exercises. Do you have others who do this as it is a fairly safe method of lifting weights? I have some dumbbells and bands as well. 

I am a female turning 60 next month, have always been very athletic and fit until a change in job over the last 3 years with MUCH more time constraints and responsibility. Now, I am very out of shape and have lost a fair amount of muscle tone. I need to get my mind right, get a schedle in place, and prioritize my own health as it has started to suffer. I want this to be my 60th birthday present to myself.

I have always started programs at least at the Intermediate level, but now feel like it probably is best to start at the beginning. I need some help with organization, best places to start, putting a calendar together, etc.

Thanks so much!

Shawn
