Training Advice or Alterations for New Fathers
Happy Easter,
I am a new father and wanted to see if anyone had any advice on how to adjust programming for strength training. My daughter is approaching 4 months old and sleep has been very hard to come by. In addition, scheduling workouts has become much more difficult as I usually train in the evening after work. While she is definitely my priority, I also definitely want to keep getting stronger as it makes me a better father and human being. My wife and I are both back at work full time. I'm just looking for advice on how other guys have approached this - dealing with (hopefully temporary) outside stressors (hellish work, lack of sleep, baby) as they pertain to training.
When she was born I was maybe near the end of my LP if I had eaten more:
5'8" 175 lb (underweight)
S: 320 x 5
B: 230 x 5
P: 175 x 1 (performed 1RM at online Strengthlifting competition)
DL: 455 x 1 (performed 1RM at online Strengthlifting competition)
