Takeaways

• Train on a schedule you can actually keep.
• Make the next session obvious: time, place, and first movement.
• Track completions and streaks, not just how motivated you felt.

Why this matters

Adherence is a force multiplier. A slightly simpler program that gets done usually beats a more advanced plan that exists only on paper.
