Getting back into a routine
What you can do after a missed session or a busy week.
Pick a manageable starting point.
Choose one action you can repeat: a short walk after lunch, preparing tomorrow’s breakfast, or keeping your agreed training slot. Start with what fits.
Have a smaller version.
A busy day may need a shorter action. Agree a suitable shorter workout with your coach, or keep a small part of your usual routine.
Let one missed day be one day.
Notice what got in the way and make the next step straightforward. Use your check-in to adjust the plan, rather than trying to punish yourself for a missed session.
Keep what works.
At the end of the week, ask what was easy to repeat and what needed too much effort. Use that to shape the next week.
