Most people don’t need complicated programs. They Most people don’t need complicated programs.
They need structure.

If someone trains four days per week, I’ll often use an upper/lower split.
If they train three days per week, full-body sessions usually make more sense.

Different frequency.
Same principle.

Each week should include the basics — push, pull, squat, hinge, core — plus enough room to recover. From there, you can layer in accessory work as needed.

You don’t need constant variation.
You need organized progression that fits your life.

Mika's a rescue from a SCARS event and has settled in quickly. 

Solid addition to the household.
I started training four times per week almost 15 y I started training four times per week almost 15 years ago.

I found a flexible program that helped me get into great shape for sports, and I’ve stuck with that frequency because it simply feels good for me.

Most of the time, that looks like two upper-body days and two lower-body days.

My workouts have definitely gotten shorter over the years as life has gotten busier, but four days still sits in a really comfortable range.

I’ve also trained three days per week — especially when I was playing more intense sports and recovery needed to be the priority. For a lot of people, three days per week is the sweet spot, with two days still being a solid option.

The “right” frequency isn’t about what’s optimal on paper.
It’s the one you can recover from, stay consistent with, and enjoy long-term.
I’ve never been a good sleeper. Ever since my tee I’ve never been a good sleeper.

Ever since my teenage years, I’ve had a habit of staying up too late — usually working late or playing video games later than I should — and constantly being behind the 8-ball on rest.

One connection I’ve made over the years is how often poor sleep showed up alongside injuries.

Even when I was training hard and trying to be a well-rounded, balanced athlete, I’d still get hurt doing things that shouldn’t have caused issues.

The most recent example was tearing my rectus femoris playing soccer. I was tired, stepped into a long shot, and my quad went. Not a freak accident — just a body that didn’t have the margin it needed.

I’ve learned that with how explosive my body is, if recovery isn’t dialed in, injuries find their way in.

I’m still a work in progress.
My routine is better and I fall asleep quickly once my head hits the pillow — the real challenge now is consistently protecting a big enough sleep window.

Sleep doesn’t just support training.
It protects it.
Most people don’t stop training because they’re la Most people don’t stop training because they’re lazy.
They stop because what they’re doing stops working.

This program is for people who used to feel athletic,
but now feel inconsistent, beat up, or stuck spinning their wheels.

Structured training. Real progression. Coaching that fits adult life.

It’s not meant to replace coaching or give you a perfect plan.
It’s meant to help you focus on what actually matters — without overthinking every detail.

If you’ve trained before but feel pulled in too many directions by workouts, nutrition advice, and recovery tips, this will help bring things back to the basics.
