Temporary routine modification

[Jonhson.1991]

Hello,
I wanted to ask you for help with my programming. Starting this week, due to my job (industrial mechanic in heavy industry), we are doing maintenance and repair tasks so for approximately a month we will be working almost all day throughout the week. I only have one day off a week and I will only be able to train that day because the rest of the week I don't have the strength or desire to train. How could I focus the training? I had thought about doing 2x5 in squats, overhead press and deadlifts.
I am an advanced beginner in NLP and during this month I am only looking for maintenance, I have no intention of progressing.

Suggestions?

If I only had one day per week to train I would want to get the maximum benefit from what little time I had. You're going to need some volume to keep the motor pathways alive, and you're going to have lots of time to recover, so I would hit it hard.

Maybe 5x5 squats, 5x5 bench/press and 1x5 deadlift. Can you at least do your chinups on a work day?

Are you 33 years old, born in 1991?

If so, you are young enough to train when tired. "No strength and desire to train" simply does not go well together with training. I can relate to being exhausted, but you need to train nonetheless. Being stronger will also help you being less exhausted from work.
If you have to, reduce the number of lifts. One lift every day is still better than one training per week.
The real challenge will be getting enough food and sleep. But you can do it, others have done it before.

It's a month. The fiddly details don't really matter. Just get as much work done each day as you can. By the time you've "settled" on what approach to take the month will already be over

A thing to remember is that not increasing the weight is decreasing it. Treat the longer week as a "recovery" window. Do all four lifts on your day on the gym. Adjust volume so that you can get through all the work. And if you don't, it doesn't matter, because the month will be over.

Hi, thanks for the answers. Yes, I am 33 years old.
By training only one day a week you should add more volume. I can do pull-ups and some dumbbell bench presses at home. There is no problem with rest and food.
Would you give more priority to the squat or the deadlift? Or does it really matter?
greetings.

Yeah it's 4 or 5 workouts right? Put in as much effort as you've can then jump back into your NLP when it's over. Buy lots of steaks with all that overtime pay.

all i can tell you is what i would do...

off day/ gym day: Squat 5x5, Bench 5x5, DL 1x5 all heavy! (like heinz said)
work day 1 - off
work day 2 - off
work day 3 - squat 3x5 light and easy, should take 20 minutes bro
work day 4 - bench 3x5 light and easy, should take 20 minutes bro
work day 5 - chins 10 minute block
work day 6 - off
back to gym day add 5 lbs

Hello, in the end I am doing all the heavy work giving priority to the squat, although I also do deadlifts. I do chin-ups 3 times a week because I have a stand in the backyard. I also do some push-ups.
Thank you very much everyone for the responses.
Wishing the month passes quickly. When I'm done there will be plenty of steaks and beer at home. And also some good bourbon.
Greetings.
