The first routine that stuck

I downloaded MadMuscles during a low-energy phase and told myself, “One week, then we’ll see.” Week one: I didn’t hate it. Week two: my shoulders stopped feeling like concrete. Week three: I caught myself choosing a workout instead of doom-scrolling. The best part is the low friction — previews so you know what’s coming, and demos that don’t assume you’re a gymnast. Add the recipe section (simple ingredients, realistic portions) and it becomes a routine, not a random burst of motivation.
