Health decisions compound daily. Without systems, they become overwhelming and inconsistent.
The Exercise Decision Eliminator
Weekly Structure - Monday/Wednesday/Friday: Strength training - Tuesday/Thursday: Cardio - Saturday: Active fun (hike, sports, etc.) - Sunday: Rest or gentle yoga
No daily "should I exercise?" decisions.
Workout Framework - If energy >7/10: Full planned workout - If energy 4-6/10: 20-minute moderate version - If energy <4/10: 10-minute walk - If sick/injured: Rest, no guilt
The framework decides based on your state.
The Nutrition Simplification System
Meal Framework - Breakfast: Rotate 3 options - Lunch: Batch prep on Sundays - Dinner: Theme nights (Meatless Monday, Taco Tuesday, etc.) - Snacks: Pre-portioned, always available
The Plate Method No calorie counting, just visual portions: - 1/2 plate: Vegetables - 1/4 plate: Lean protein - 1/4 plate: Complex carbs - Thumb-size: Healthy fats
Restaurant Rules - Look at menu online first - Decide before arriving - Order first to avoid influence - Box half immediately for tomorrow
Sleep Optimization Framework
The biggest health decision is when to sleep. Automate it:
The Wind-Down Sequence - 9 PM: Kitchen closed, devices charging - 9:30 PM: Hygiene routine - 10 PM: In bed with book - 10:30 PM: Lights out, no negotiation
The Morning Launch - Alarm across room (no snooze option) - Bright light immediately - Glass of water by bed - Clothes laid out - No decisions for first 30 minutes
