“Thank god its Monday.” Said nobody ever. Unless you are the type who needs that Monday fitspo costume change to finally believe you are about to become the person you keep promising yourself you will be. I have coached for 20 plus years and I have watched people get ready to get ready with the “I’ll start Monday” mindset, then do nothing until Monday, then go too hard, then disappear, then beg for another Monday like it is a reset button.

In this episode I name the loop. ISM. “I’ll Start Monday” Syndrome. Then I give you the way out. No emotion-based restart. Executable action. One rule. Make Monday your main session. Full-body anchor, reps in reserve, and a Plan B for when the gym is packed so the crowd cannot break your workout. This is a cycle-breaking Monday split that wrecks the restart habit and builds consistency instead.
