Daily baseline

  • 2 protein anchors: breakfast/lunch or lunch/dinner.
  • 2 walking blocks of 7–10 minutes.
  • 1 honest tracker entry.
  • 1 sleep wind-down cue.

Strength micro-sessions

Pick two days. Do 2–3 rounds: squat or sit-to-stand, push-up variation, hinge or bridge, row/band pull, plank. Keep 2 reps in reserve.

Food template

Plate: palm-sized protein + high-fibre carb or fruit + vegetables + thumb-sized fat. If appetite is low, start with protein first.

Sunday review

Ask: What did I actually do? What was too hard? Which one lever changes next week: steps, protein, training, or sleep?
