Some ppl worry that working 38hrs per wk is a lot and nothing can be done thats any good towards training.
I call that, and raise it to bullocks.
Working a 38hr wk esp when its an Office type of job is basically physically resting.
I have worked 38hrs in a physically demanding job and still run well.
Try working 7 days a week, 12hr days (84hrs wk) in a physical job and 45-60min travel each way. I still found 20min each day to train in a gym AND improve. A Wife helps (food).

a 38hr wk, working on a computer can easily become a Rest distraction for a hard working 2x per day athlete. Not only that, they will be able to afford Physio, massage and other therapys. Also, the $$ to attend CF.com seminars and dvds etc that are invaluable. So long as they dont waste the $$ on cars etc they will be fine.

and you were a world class athlete while living this lifestyle? Wow. Which event?
