Start Here
Your First Week
You don’t need a full home gym or a perfect schedule. Pick a place to start, then make a plan for the week ahead.
Why are you starting?
Write down what you want from a routine: a little structure, time for yourself, or a way to stay active at home. One clear reason is enough to start.
Write your first-week plan ↓When do you have time?
Look at your calendar and choose realistic time slots. Leave room for your commute, family, and the days that don’t go to plan.
