Most don’t have a problem doing both. I’ve never had a problem commuting into a sim session and doing well, and I’m average at best. I feel no different at any point in the training footprint than I do commuting into a busy domestic 4 day, or a high time international 3 day. Know the call outs, flows, and systems, and the rest is just flying. That part is basically the same thing on every fleet regardless if we’re there for initial or recurrent.

I get it. And some of us, even average pilots like myself don’t seem to have the wheels fall off after a few 6 hour training events backed up without 20 hours of rest in between each session. Study well, don’t hang out at characters pounding IPA’s and eating half lbs burgers like way too many pilots tend to do down there and get some sleep. It isn’t a cake walk, but this isn’t a ball buster, mission impossible like you’re making it out to be.
