Routine Reset: A 2‑Week Plan After Time Off

Fitness
Written By Ashley Gibbons

Whether you’ve been traveling, recovering, or just needed a reset, coming back into your movement practice can feel like a big leap. But it doesn’t have to be.

This two-week reset routine is designed to help you rebuild rhythm, reconnect with your body, and get back into class—without the pressure to “catch up.”

WEEK ONE: RECONNECT

  • Focus on form, breath, and flow.

  • Choose classes that feel grounding—X classes are great here.

  • Aim for 2–3 sessions, with plenty of recovery in between.

  • Add walks, stretching, or sauna sessions to stay gently active.

WEEK TWO: REBUILD

  • Introduce more structure: blend in XS (strength) and light XTS (cardio).

  • Stay tuned into how your body feels post-class.

  • Prioritize sleep, hydration, and post-class fueling.

Optional, Always:

  • Modify when needed. Rest when needed.

  • Celebrate consistency, not intensity.

This isn’t about snapping back—it’s about choosing a return that feels steady, supportive, and sustainable.

You’re not starting over. You’re starting from here.
