Lesson 3 of 3Guide2 min read

Keeping habits

Small repeated things, checked off as you do them. Either you or your coach can add one, and the ones that work are smaller than people expect.

Topics: Your program

Habits are the small repeated things that sit alongside training. Over a year they add up to more than any single workout. Workout Titan Coaching keeps a list and lets you mark them off.

Adding one

Open Habits and add one. It takes a name and a description. The built-in example sets the tone: "Drink eight cups of water."

Either side can create them. A coach adds habits for a specific client, and a client can add their own. Both end up in the same list, so it is worth agreeing who is setting what rather than both of you adding a sleep habit.

For clients: habits your coach added and habits you added sit in the same list, and you mark them off the same way.

Writing one that works

The test is whether you can answer yes or no at the end of the day without arguing with yourself. "Drink eight cups of water" passes. "Eat better" does not, because there is no moment where it is done.

Make it smaller than feels worthwhile. A small habit you can complete on an ordinary day is easier to keep going than an ambitious one. Consistency is the point here, and the list is not a score.

Three or four is plenty. A long list is harder to keep track of than a short one.

A day you do not check off is just a day you did not check off. What the list is good for is the pattern over weeks, rather than any single day in it.

For coaches

Habits are where you put the things that are not training but decide whether training works: sleep, steps, water, protein at breakfast, a walk on rest days.

They sit alongside the program rather than inside it, so a habit is not attached to a workout and does not need a training day to be checked off.

Set them with the client rather than at them. A habit the client agreed to is one they recognize on the list, and the list stays theirs to keep.

Review them. A habit checked off every day for two months has been learned and can come off. One that has never been checked off is usually too big, rather than a sign that the client is not trying.

Deleting one

Swipe a habit left to delete it. You can only delete habits you added yourself. You are asked to confirm, and it cannot be undone. Removing a habit that has served its purpose is good housekeeping rather than failure. The list should describe what you are working on now.
