You can find time — here’s how to make it happen.

If you’ve ever stared at your calendar and wondered “When am I supposed to work out?” — you’re not alone. Between meetings, commutes, and endless to-do lists, fitness often gets pushed to “someday.”

But here’s the truth: you don’t need more time — you need better systems.

There are 168 hours in a week. With the right structure and approach, you can reclaim a few of them to invest in your health — sustainably and consistently.

Step 1: Audit Your Time Honestly

Let’s break it down.

• 24 hours × 7 days = 168 hours
• Sleep: 8 hours/day × 7 = 56 hours
• Work + commute: 9 hours/day × 5 = 45 hours
• Leftover: 67 hours

Even if these numbers aren’t exact for you, this quick math shows that time exists — we just need to see it clearly.

What to do:

Take 10 minutes to outline your typical weekday and weekend from wake-up to bedtime. Use a calendar, a spreadsheet, or a notebook. Be honest. Include everything — your phone time, emails, Netflix, meal prep, and transitions between tasks.

This step is about clarity. Before you fix anything, you have to see it.

Step 2: Cut the Clutter (a.k.a. Time Wasters)

Now that you've laid out your week, it's time to identify and minimize what's not adding value.

These could include:

• Social media scrolling you didn’t mean to do
