Most people restart training with a revenge plan. Six days a week, zero sugar, total overhaul. It lasts eleven days.
Build the floor first: three sessions a week, compound lifts, sleep you actually protect, protein you actually eat. Boring is durable.
Progress is measured in loads you can repeat, not sessions that wreck you. If a workout costs you the next two days, it was a withdrawal, not a deposit.
Ten years from now the person you become is built by the sessions you did on average days — not the ones you posted about.
