Another #FediWeightroom #GymBro tip here - being able to go between being rigid with a program and flexible with the circumstances you're under is a very useful ability to practice in your fitness journey.

For example, sometimes getting into a program and sticking to it carefully and without much deviation is good. It helps you get familiar with movements, improve particular skills, and makes the idea of what work has to be a done a matter of following the plan as best as you can. Those constraints can help!

Flipside of that is sometimes current circumstances just don't allow for it. For example, maybe you've got family vacations planned, or maybe your life is chaotic in other ways that prohibit you from doing a fixed routine. Or maybe you can, but you've been running the same routine for so long it's become stale or you can't make any more progress. These are great times to become flexible. Try a few new movements out, increase volume and drop the weight, adjust your schedule so you can fit something in but be chill about what you get done.

I've been in an in between phase for a bit. So I've just been kinda doing what I like with good intensity, and fiddling around getting some work done without worrying about perfection or specific progress. It's helping me think up a new thing to try and approach for the fall. So I'm grateful for the awkward in between period now that I've embraced it.
