Fitness Basics
A minimal one-page framework (schedule → rules → plan → review).
Diagnosis
Goal: Get fit
Days/week: 3
Session length: 30 minutes
Equipment: none
Focus: general
Principles
- Consistency beats intensity.
- Progress is a schedule + progression.
- Diet is the multiplier (especially for fat loss).
Rules
- Non-negotiable: 3 workouts/week.
- Minimum effective dose: 30 minutes per session.
- If I can’t do the full session, I do 10 minutes.
- Log workouts (sets/reps/weight).
- General rule: keep it simple and keep showing up.
Training plan
- Train 3×/week for 30 minutes.
- Full-body circuit: pushups (or incline), squats, hip hinge (good mornings), rows (towel), plank.
- Progression: add reps until top of range, then add a set, then harder variation.
Daily baseline
- Steps: choose a baseline (start with 6–8k/day).
- Protein with each meal.
- Sleep: protect a consistent window.
Metrics
- Weekly: workouts completed
- Weekly: average daily steps
- Weekly: bodyweight trend (optional)
Weekly review (10 minutes)
- Did I hit workouts? If not, why (schedule, energy, friction)?
- What’s the smallest change to reduce friction next week?
- Is progression moving (reps/weight/sets)?
