80 hours a week as a nurse in this pandemic isn't unusual. Getting 8 hours of sleep is. Took a look at my sleep tracker: averages 4 hours and 20 minutes of sleep per night. And when you're tired, you can't be bothered cooking or mealprepping. Time to break the cycle. Goodnight.

Ouch! Yep definitely an area to optimise and get in a few more hours of sleep! Intrigued to see how it makes a difference for you!

I’m a health care worker and I’ve just newly started working out more seriously as I am prediabetic from eating fast food and not having time to Cook so now even though I can’t cook meals because of time I’ve decided I’ll just make simple pack lunches like 2-3 sandwiches, wraps and stuff or something simple to take to work so I don’t have to cook for bare hours. I don’t like meal prepping unless it’s food that can be eaten cold idk why just my taste buds don’t like overnight food.

Humans evolved to be their best when they have not had food and they are hungry. When humans were hunter gatherers and they had not had food for a day or more, they became better, more focussed and productive hunters because they had to get food to survive. Being well fed made them lazy.

@MattBrighton2 жыл бұрын
I do procrastinate a lot and allow it to happen. If I’m doing anything on the weekend it’s usually on a passion project or hobby so feels more like ‘doing something’ rather than ‘working’ as such

Not everything you eat is converted to glucose. Fats and Protein for instance usually are not. Also intermediate fasting or skipping breakfast is not necessarily unhealthy. Also you didnt include exercise in your video.

Working 80 hours per week is terrible for you. I know, because I did it for 4 years, with Christmas and Thanksgiving off (yes, 7 days a week). It ruins your memory from lack of sleep, and your body from increased physical stresses. It's okay if you need to do it for a month, but I highly recommend limiting work to 60 hours per week or less. And try to organize your schedule so that you have a whole day off every week.

I've enjoyed / got along well with it so far. With plenty of sleep each night and lots of downtime, walks etc it feels very healthy at the moment. Still have time to do my hobbies which is great and get 9 hours sleep,
@mlgrizzy Жыл бұрын
I'm working 80 hours a week and can still get 8 hours of sleep each night. It's all about working the schedule and understanding you won't have time for hobbies or really anything outside of work. There's 168 hours in a week and I sleep for 56 of them 1 hour to get to bed and 7 asleep then there is 80 hours working with 6 hours for commute and 10 hours for bathroom and showers. It takes me already another 10 hours to cook for the week and I'll use the rest of my hours reading or learning or hanging out with my dad since he's the only family member I spend my time with. It's very much possible. 6am-9pm then sleep 9pm-6am.

@@WaqarDepp You can make it work! It just depends on commute time and how many days you want to spend working. I now do 13 hours and try and have one day off. Create a base template of 168 hours and keep removing hours as you create a schedule.

You advocating working 80 hours a week is dangerous and unadvisable. That’s like me making a video saying, you can drink as much alcohol as you want and never get cirrhosis of the liver, if you sip your whiskey instead of gulping it down.
@MattBrighton2 жыл бұрын
It's a bit like saying you can drink alcohol, in moderation, as long as you drink plenty of water, stay hydrated and also have a balanced diet if you're trying to compare points in the video about sleep, mindset and work/life balance.

I was with him until he got to talking about how skipping breakfast is a mistake and how are you go for hours without feeding your brain, do you think as complex as the brain is that it would not have a system in place to ensure that it got nutrients no matter if you ate for days at a time,? If that were the case every time our ancestors were hungry because they hadn't eaten according to this guy we wouldn't have been able to think and search for food and then they would have died. I think they really need to debunk this myth scientifically because it just doesn't make any sense for long-term evolution of the human species
