Posted here recently asking if it was time to switch the same home workout video since nothing felt new anymore. Didn’t swap it, just split it into pieces instead.
What changed:
– Mornings: warm up plus the first round only, before coffee
– Evenings: the rest of the video, slower, pausing on anything that felt off
– Brought the kitchen chair back for the squat part since I’d been rushing it to get to the parts I actually felt
– Stopped counting rounds, just went until form started slipping
The comment about nervousness over bad form stuck with me, because that was it exactly, rushing the easy looking parts so I could get to something that felt like actual work, and doing them wrong the whole time.
Splitting it up made the sloppy parts obvious. Legs still shake some nights, nothing other nights, and I’m done treating shaking as the only sign something worked.
