A Three-Line Check-In After You Move

After your next workout, try a three-line check-in before you move on with your day. Use a notebook or your phone; a few plain words are enough.

First, write what you did: a walk, a class, or a strength session. Next, note how the effort felt in your own words. Finally, choose one thing to discuss or adjust next time—perhaps the pace, an unfamiliar movement, or the amount of rest between exercises.

Keep the note descriptive. You are gathering observations, and there is no score to chase. If you train with a partner, each person can make a separate note; sharing a session does not mean having the same experience.

Want help turning those observations into a training plan? Ask Awan about Personal, Partner & Small Group Training at downtown Seattle residences or Tower 12 by arrangement.
