Why Falling Off Track Might Just Be the Secret Weapon You’ve Been Ignoring—And How to Harness It for Explosive Growth
⏱️Shrink Your Workouts
I mentioned this in a previous email, but did you know you can maintain your strength with ⅓ of your normal training volume?
That means if you normally do 3 sets of each exercise, 1 set is enough to hold steady.
Here are a few common ways I help clients reorganize their workouts when everything feels like it’s on fire:
- Reduce the number of rounds. If you normally do 3 or 4 rounds, try 1 or 2.
- Do a timed, bodyweight circuit instead. With a timed circuit, you know the EXACT amount of time you are committing to, and with bodyweight movements, you can do it anywhere.
- Break it up throughout the day/week. Take little breaks to do a couple of minutes of movement at a time. A few countertop pushups. Some squats after you brush your teeth. It all adds up!
One of my clients, Sean, had a massive work trip coming up and was going to be gone for 2-weeks. In the past, he would put his workouts on hold until he was in a better place to focus on them.
