Mon: Reaction focus; Tue: Memory + Focus; Wed: Recovery + light pattern work; Thu: Reaction + processing; Fri: Memory heavy; Sat: Optional play; Sun: Review & planning.
Keep heavy days 48 hours apart to allow neural recovery.
Recovery Protocols
Insert low-intensity cardio, mobility, and nature walks on rest days. Recovery keeps HRV high and prevents cognitive fatigue. Treat sleep as a scheduled workout by setting alarms for bedtime.
Hydrate aggressively on heavy days (90 oz+) and front-load protein to supply amino acids for neurotransmitter synthesis.
Weekly Review Ritual
Sunday evenings: review stats, adjust next week’s focus, and set process goals. Celebrate wins with teammates or accountability partners.
If a metric stalls for two weeks, swap in a different drill but keep the schedule shell identical to maintain habit strength.
Action steps
