It largely depends on the company. How many hours will you be working per week?
60 - 80 a week but it's a hybrid of in-person and WFH.
waive bye bye to any hobbies you have

Tell me you have a gym where you live.
I don’t have a place yet but I will definitely look for a place with one
COVID, ironically, was a game changer for me on exercise and efficiency. Proximity is everything. Pay up for a gym in your building or get equipment in your apartment. No excuses for not having 30 minutes to workout when it's steps from your door or literally in your place. Other option is pay up for one in your office building, or right next to it. I run outside when it's nice (easy to get a few miles + inside of 30 minutes), things like that.
Last thing - mindset is everything. You won't always get to workout. Things will change. Shit happens. Just prioritize, do what you can or have time to do, and over time you'll be able to make your schedule more to optimize what you can do.
It’s difficult. For reference I avg. 80 hours a week. My office has a fairly nice gym that’s moderately equipped. I try to force myself to take a break and go down for at least an hour at around 5 or 6 but depending on the work it sometimes can end up being 8. Then I go back to my desk and keep working until I leave.
yeah goodbye 2 hour workouts. BUT you can get in about an hour a day. Still plenty
