You never really "have" time, you only ever "make" time.
Make dating and gym time something that you actually care deeply about (instead of - "hmm, I guess those are things I should probably do") and watch your schedule restructure itself.
I know this sounds simplistic, but it really is that simple.
You're 20 (something), you will learn and grow, you will need less time to bring 12 hours of your current work value to your startup. Just make sure to start at filling the time before you get there, otherwise you will feel lost once you do (and thus fill your time with even more work, leading to burnout). Add some pressure by taking breaks - try to work less, deliberately, while keeping up the amount of work you turn out. You will end up more satisfied with your work.
Eventually you will find that only the stuff you do outside your work - getting outside and being with people - make you really productive.
(And yes, as others have said, 12 hours sounds like you're already being burned out. Not really a healthy start in any shape or form.)
