Recovery & Energy
Why do I fall apart at the same point in my week?
Rhema Adelaja · National Champion & 4x DUX
You probably have a threshold, the point in your week where the load from training, school and everything else is so high that one more task, even a small one, breaks your follow-through. Find it, then plan your heaviest demands before you reach it.
The answer
- Notice when things fall apart. It is usually the same point each week, not random.
- Look at what has piled up before it: training, school, deadlines and everything in between.
- Treat that point as your line. This is your real capacity, not the version you wish you had.
- Put your hardest study sessions, biggest deadlines and most important decisions before the line, not after it.
