The new weekly workout split is designed to optimize focus and recovery:
- Monday: Quads
- Tuesday: Chest
- Wednesday: Back
- Thursday: Rest
- Friday: Shoulders and Arms
- Saturday: Hamstrings
- Sunday: Rest
Emphasis is placed on keeping legs fresh and prioritizing specific muscle groups on their designated days.
The chest day workout includes:
- Warm-up sets leading up to working sets.
- Exercises such as flys, neutral presses, dips, and triceps work.
- Focus on proper form: rolling shoulders back, keeping chest up, and squeezing muscles during reps.
Only one or two working sets are performed during this session to maintain sanity and avoid overtraining.
Gym time is viewed as a form of therapy and mental wellness.

The gym is seen as a therapeutic space rather than a place to push to exhaustion every session.

Encouragement to inspire and support others in the gym through spotting and giving compliments.
Cherishing small positive moments and interactions as sources of motivation.
