A belief I hear constantly from men our age, and held myself for years: „I will get back in shape once work calms down.”
In my experience, work does not calm down. It only changes shape. What actually works is not waiting for a quieter season, but a commitment small enough to survive a busy one.
Three sessions of thirty to forty minutes, treated as fixed appointments, will take you further over a year than an ambitious plan you drop the first hard week. For someone working full-time, consistency is not the lesser path. It is the only one that lasts.
Which three days of your week could realistically hold a short session, every week, regardless of how work is going? Name them below. Saying it is how it starts.
