Ten minutes is not nothing

The session you actually do beats the one you planned.

The gap between zero and ten minutes is enormous. The gap between ten and sixty is a rounding error by comparison.

Most people quit training because they set a standard they can only hit on a good week. Then a bad week arrives, they miss it, and the whole thing collapses because the plan had no version of itself that survives a bad week.

Build the small version first. Ten minutes, three times, whatever you have access to. A swim. A walk with your phone in your pocket instead of your hand. Twenty press-ups spread across a morning. The point is not the stimulus, it is that you stay someone who trains.

Then when a good week shows up you have somewhere to put it.

The best program is the one still running in March.
