Most people don’t stop training suddenly.

They drift.

One missed session becomes two.
Two becomes a quiet week.
Then it becomes easier not to go than to restart.

This usually starts with a lack of accountability.

When you train alone, there is no external anchor.
No one notices when sessions slide.
No one challenges the decision to skip rather than adapt.

Accountability is not about pressure.
It is about continuity.

A coach provides:
• Someone who expects sessions to happen
• Someone who notices patterns forming
• Someone who keeps the plan intact when things wobble

This is especially important in January.

Early enthusiasm masks poor planning.
Later in the month, reality shows up.

Workload increases.
Fatigue accumulates.
Life resumes normal pace.

This is the point where accountability matters most.

Not to push harder.
But to keep training appropriate.

Sometimes that means reducing volume.
Sometimes it means moving sessions.
Sometimes it means doing less, not more.

Without accountability, most people make emotional decisions.
They either force sessions when recovery is poor or avoid them altogether.

With accountability, decisions are calmer.
Training stays consistent.
Progress continues quietly in the background.

That is why coached people tend to still be training at the end of January.

Not perfectly.
But reliably.

If your training has already started to drift, it’s not too late to steady it.

Better planning.
Clear structure.
Simple accountability.

If you want help putting that in place, I have limited coaching spaces available.
