I work a mildly active job as an ambulance paramedic, I can do 10,000 steps a day with tons of lifting or 1000 steps a day on the couch. At the end of my days I am mentally and usually physically exhausted regardless of how busy we were.

My question is, is it wrong to feel guilty by skipping the gym on my work days? I feel like it interrupts my sleep and personal life and honestly some days I just don't have it in me.

I want to lose weight but I feel as though this hinders me and drags me down, do normal people hit the gym after shift work? Normally I would go before work but I wake up on average 4 am for work and the gyms in town open at 6.
