Late, and writing anyway.

Eight minutes and a chair. That is the whole programme. Tuesday and Friday. I have done it for eleven weeks.

Grip strength has gone off and I noticed it opening a jar before I noticed it anywhere else. Back to loading properly.

Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped the two that were vanity. Fewer, heavier, done.

Came back after a bad fortnight without trying to make up the lost ground, which is the thing that used to end it for me every time.

Small step. Next.

No wisdom, just: I am sorry. That sounds genuinely hard.

Please do take that to your GP rather than waiting for the next review. Not to frighten you — just, go.
