I've been fortunate enough in the tech support field (and in terms of networking) to have several gyms where I have a good relationship with to be able to come in to train. Most of the time I train anywhere from 7pm to as late as 10pm (although recently on avg my last roll where will be by 9:30pm ET).
On weekends generally Sat is my rest day unless there's a seminar or camp I'm attending, and then Sun I try to put in a couple hours. There will be some weeks where I may only get out twice or three times, and then other weeks depending on my training partners and schedule I may be able to get in 6 days of mat time (mind you I'm not going 100% every night otherwise I'd completely break down).
I find honestly the quote is true is that it comes down to prioritization of things, and time budgeting (I know some folks call it time management, but in reality time isn't something you manage cause you can't control it, the only thing you can control is what you do with your time). Obv there'll always be spikes in terms of job, family, dating/marriage partners, and life. But I find I run a good balance of them, and I think each person needs to really figure out what works for them.
Hope that helps...
