This tiny habit quietly built my physique—read below

Most guys train hard and still look the same because they ignore the boring details that actually move the needle. • I stop every set 1–2 reps BEFORE failure on my main lifts so I can add weight or reps next week instead of burning out for Instagram today. • I lock in one “non‑negotiable” move per muscle group (bench, row, RDL, squat, pull-up) and track only those like a maniac—everything else is optional seasoning. • Twice a month I run my stats through F/AI: AI Gym & Fitness Trainer for body composition analysis so I know if I should eat more, eat less, or just be patient. • I don’t chase pump; I chase tension: 2–3 second controlled negatives, zero bouncing, and I don’t let the weight rest at the bottom where the muscle can relax. • On busy days I do a 20‑minute “minimum effective workout”: 3 compound lifts, 3 sets each, 60 seconds rest, no phone—then I leave. • I plan my next session right AFTER the current one, while the last set is still burning—weights, reps, and exercises are written down before I leave the rack. • My rule for food is simple: 3 high‑protein anchor meals at similar times every day, then I’m allowed “flex calories” at night so I can still have a life. • I treat sleep like a supplement I pay for: same bedtime alarm, blacked‑out room, and no caffeine after 2pm if I want my lifts to move. If you train, tell me what small habit changed your physique the most—curious if anyone else does this.
