Why I started
As a desk-bound solo dev, I treat training as another form of building in public — logged daily to stay honest.
💡 Core principle: consistency beats intensity. Build the habit first.
My plan
Three strength + two running sessions a week. Here is the snippet I use to generate the calendar:
const plan = week.map((d) => ({ day: d, type: rotate(d) }))
Gear & tools
What I actually use: Garmin Forerunner 265 ↗affiliate link and Nike Pegasus 41 ↗affiliate link.
