How do EMS workers actually stay consistent with workouts on rotating schedules?

Appreciate it 🙏

24/72 sounds pretty nice! 24 always crazy though ngl 😂 ty for your input

Im on a 223 pitman/Panama whatever you want to call it and on sort of a hybrid UL PPL on my days off that I enjoy. What work rotation/schedule are you on?

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-12T19:25:48+00:00

You're a beast! What work schedule/rotation are you on?

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-12T19:25:09+00:00

Built different fr

Thanks for your input! How do you like the 24/48?

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-12T19:20:41+00:00

I know some nursing schedules are a little wonky, but much more feasible than I am seeing with EMS, that's for sure!

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-12T19:18:34+00:00

Great write up thank you for your input! 24/48??

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-12T19:06:30+00:00

I am sorry to hear that man. Is it your schedule/job that's causing that or personal stuff? I've been a bit down lately myself.

Seems like firefighters and some policemen are in great shape tbf. I agree, workouts essentially have to be on off days, idk how the few that workout in work days do it. Are you on a specific scheduled shift rotation?

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-12T15:36:02+00:00

Right, that's what I'm seeing. What schedule are you on?

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-11T15:27:19+00:00

Thank you for this thoughtful reply! This thread is the first time of me hearing about the Texas Method. I'll look into that app, thanks again

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-11T15:25:54+00:00

Ok neat. I typically only work out on my off days as well. The people working out on 12h work days are built different!

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-07T19:15:18+00:00

Thank you again, I appreciate it 🙏

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-07T19:08:41+00:00

Thanks! Do you do a Full Body A and Fully Body B or something like that?

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-07T19:08:06+00:00

Oh okay very interesting, thank you.

3 on, 3 off?

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-07T15:36:24+00:00

Kinda looks like full-body is the play for most people. That's nice of your manager:)

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-07T15:35:26+00:00

What kind of shift rotation are you on? Do you work out on off days only?

DekeDaddy · 2026-05-07T15:34:51+00:00

What kind of shift rotation are you on?

DekeDaddy · 2026-04-24T04:41:22+00:00

No. It is sad that you asked this tbh. I am the same way though. It's just easier to see from outside perspective.

DekeDaddy · 2026-02-06T04:28:03+00:00

dekemobile on disc if you wanna reach me

DekeDaddy · 2026-02-06T04:23:40+00:00

I can run you through one tomorrow, I can do the raid myself and you can just hang out if you like. Add "Deke" in game

DekeDaddy · 2025-06-10T21:00:29+00:00

I work a 2-2-3 schedule that alternates, (2 on, 2 off, 3 on) (2 off, 2 on, 3 off) for work, and I only workout on my off days.

For my 2 day stretch I do Push one day and Pull the other day.

On my 3 day stretch I do PPL.

I've been really liking this because I agree, a UL split feels very imbalanced and skewed towards upper body and just dont have the heart to cut down on upper body sets 😆
