Agree that working that long isn’t optimal.
But also think that sometimes it is necessary (if not expected) for the health of the business and so on, otherwise in the not too distant future there might not be a job to do 16 hours on...
@TGR
I think it is worth trying to create some space, and try to be strict with things like not eating lunch and dinner at the desk.
If you’re office based, intentionally walking to cafe/canteen.For actual strength training, 5-10 minutes per day seems more manageable than trying to fit in 3 longer workouts a week, so worth finding shorter duration workouts that you can do in the morning before you brush your teeth.
Bog standard sets of push-ups, crunches, squats, chin-ups (if you have a bar) and some stretching and mobilisation will definitely be better than nothing.

@duncs I agree with you but also think this is easy to say as an outsider. Every individual case is so nuanced and we're living in pretty mad times. So whilst I would urge anyone working 16hrs per day and ostensibly putting this before their health to reconsider, I can see that this comes from a personal place of privilege.
